Jamestown Settlement

Jamestown Settlement

This is the re-created Jamestown, which features the fort, three ships, and an Indian village. A large new gallery with history exhibits and an introductory film trace Jamestown's beginnings in England, and describes the three cultures--Powhatan, English, and African--that collided, converged, and coalesced in the making of America.
