    I’m touched that this boy’s life and those of the other colonists will not be forgotten. Your updates really humanize that part of history.

    That poor boy, he suffered his entire short life. Having an infection in your mouth is god-awful, and to die that way....tragically sad.

    The point found with the boy is very similar to two I found in Northern VA. I was working as a Field Tech doing cultural artifact clearance for a building new project.

    Thank you for the work you are doing and sharing. If I could make a suggestion, please pause to show the artifacts longer. We barely get to see them and if we wanted to study the find, a longer shot would be great. Thanks again.

    My son (7th grade) read the historical fiction book, “Blood On The River”, by Elisa Carbone, for his social studies class. It’s plot was based on the young boy’s life I believe.

    So much information my history loving side enjoys this. Right now I looking into the British Colonies and Roanoke is one of the main colonies I'm researching as of now since I'm living in NC but I do plan on visiting the Jamestown Colony since it was one of Britain's most successful colonies and I enjoyed reading the history in my freshman year. Knowing that Jamestown was the 2nd Colony to be established by the Virginia Compony was mind blowing and my father told history books in different states never tells us the whole story.

    Thank you for this fascinating archaeological study. I’ve always found Pocahontas interesting and pulled to her. Then years later I was doing some genealogy and found two great uncles who said Pocahontas was their 6th great grandmother. Which would make her my 13th great grandmother. 😊

    Could bone marrow DNA from these 400 year old remains be submitted to any of the genetics companies like AncestryDNA and the like, to see who may currently be possibly related to the colonists?

      I believe that that process is well underway now. In another video, the narrator stated that DNA analysis has been undertaken on at least one of the persons buried on the Jamestowne site.

    These people died trying to settle our land. They died of disease and wounds were buried in hasty unmarked graves to keep there deaths a secret from the hostile tribes, and then houses & buildings were built over top of them. In the struggle to develop our community and civilization these brethren and sisters were forgotten.
    How amazing is the skill of the archaeologist that have found them., And are, in many cases, able to identify the individuals. We can tell them in glory when we meet again that they were not forgotten and that they did not die in vain. Almighty heartfelt salute of praise and honor goes out to Mr Kelso and all of those who work with him.

      I enjoyed the video as I am an amateur archaeologist, but you were wrong on one major point--- The colonists were trying to settle on Native American lands--- Not OUR land-----

      I have had some limited dealings with the descendants of Wahunsonacock & Opecancanough. None were honest, but two-faced. I traded 2 lb of crab meat for an external speaker that a Chickahominy had for trade. After he ate his crab meat, and s*** it out several days later, he wanted his speaker back.
      As the first hand accounts of the settlers attest-to, some of the tribes were friendly & honest but most were stereotypical "Indian-giving" savages. Opecancanough planned, for years, his massacres of 1622 and 1644. We had our first lesson in racial integration when our corporate sponsors, back in England, wanted us to intermingle / integrate with the savages for the sake of their money, (but in disobedience to God's law to remain separate from these people). They were going to prayer meetings with us, and worshiping Jesus with us, & sleeping in our homes telling us how much they loved us. However, when the sun got to a certain point in the sky on March 22nd 1622 they tried to wipe us out, regardless of sex or age. This undisputable fact, of their modus operandi, was reference by our Founders in our Declaration of Independence. It is worthy to mention that some tribes were friendly and loyal to us, and should be given due honor. No one will argue that the Federal Govt, dealt treacherously with the tribes & nations of Indians, as it grew into the tyrannical monstrosity that dealt treacherously, and attacked the Southern States, in 1861. Most of the honest tribes sided with the South bc of mutual hatred of the tyrannical Fed.Govt.
      But when we settled Virginia and the Eastern Seaboard, there were just enough indigenous heathens for GOD to use, with which to chastise us. How do you explain that in one moment, the Powhatans were lurking to capture, then torture & kill you just outside the gates of James Fort - then the next day, bringing you food to keep you from starvation???? It was the hand of GOD. Unlike modern hypocrite historians, I would say honestly, that if I were a Powhatan tribesman back then, and believed my priests and wise men, I would be trying to kill the colonists. And at the same time if I was a colonist I'd be trying to kill me some hostile Powhatans.
      For those that truly accepted Christ we are brethren in Christ now. But I will not be ashamed by self-hating liberal retards for trying to settle my new Homeland claimed by my king.

    This looks like it might be a casting mold form for duplicating metal parts such as gun parts etc. by pouring molten metal into the hole on top and thus into a void in the shape of the object to be made, i. e the spru hole.

    Historians new about Jamestown and it was kept out of the history books. Sense Columbus gets credit for discovering this land. Even though Indians were already here which makes the claim that Columbus discovered this land and declared property to Spain 🇪🇸 That didn't even belong to him. I'm finding difficulty too find pride in having European blood in me. And finding more pride in my Cherokee bloodline, and finding my empathy growing for all Western Indiana Nations. We were not invited
    guests 😒 As far as thoes killed in jamestown, you more than likely can think the Spanish for that.
