Product Description:
On May 13 1607 three English sailing vessels drop anchor beside a small island fringed by swamps in the James River Virginia. On board: 104 colonists who will establish the first successful English settlement in the New World at Jamestown. The exploits of one colonist -- the brash swashbuckling John Smith; the venerable chief Powhatan; and his infatuated daughter Pocahontas will be recited retold and embroidered until they gather the status of an epic founding myth of the new nation.Now 400 years later science is investigating the truth behind the myth. Virginia archaeologists recently discovered the site of Chief Powhatan s capital Werowocomoco some 17 miles from Jamestown. This is the very spot where the smitten Pocahontas begged her father to spare the neck of the captive John Smith or so Smith claimed. Join NOVA on this exclusive investigation of the archaeological clues that are revealing the Native American side of the Jamestown story for the first time.Special DVD features include: materials and activities for educators; a link to the NOVA Web site; scene selections; and closed captions.On one DVD5 disc.
