I'm going to reserve comment on this until my personal involvement is resolved (No, I'm none of the people in the article).

Where's the open air museum the article refernces? I go out to The Cape Henry Cross and the old Cape Henry lighthouse a couple of times a year and I'd love to see what's there.

Is there a scource to find out more about the work on this site? Has there been much documentation that a such a named place existed? Wouldn't there have to be some written references in many places, England, too?

Why don't they just study the written records of the advanced civilization which shared the area at the time?

Adjacent to Ft Henry on Cape Henry is First Landing State Park

As a thread stealing statement, I’ll add that First Landing State Park is the northern most habitat of the bromeliad Tillandsia usneoides commonly known as Spanish Moss. It is perhaps the most successful plant species on earth. The habitat extends all the way from Virginia First Landing State Park continuously to southern Argentina. It was not able to cross the gap of the Chesapeake bay to the Delmarva peninsula.

Amici is right if Virginia’s politicians are buying up land near the site. Otherwise, he’s a quack.

I am interested in reading more about this. I would not consider it a “shakeup.” A shakeup would be along the lines of discovering an event considered a milestone never happened.

Our family used to rent a house at Va Beach on the last street before Ft Story. Neither here nor there, just a fact of interest to no one but me. This was mid-sixties. My cousins and I would take walks on the beach at night towards Ft Story. We always were scared because we thought if we were caught trespassing, we would be arrested by the Army. What can I say. I was 8 and we all had big imaginations. :)
