Abstract
This presentation describes how the lost James Fort at the colony of Jamestown, Virginia, the first English, permanent colony, was found after four hundred years. Dr. Kelso also reveals new historical insights about what life and death were like in that settlement for its early adventurers. The presentation also considers the national and global implications of recapturing the original Jamestown landscape especially as it relates to the development of democracy and the space age.
