The French at Pentagoet, 1635-1674
Fort Pentagoet, situated at the confluence of the Bagaduce River and Penoscabot, is the site of the last major Acadian holding before the frontier with New England, and takes it name from the area it was designed to control. This report gives a historical and archaeological profile of the Fort area starting at the emergence of camps upon the site as early as 1600 and the three forts built on the site through that century. Archaeological details include information on conflicting historical templates, ground-penetrating radar predictions, excavation sequence, chronology from pipestem bores and includes a discussion of products and by-products made by the smithy of the Fort, clay tobacco pipes, ceramics, foodways, personal belongings and trade goods, and includes a account of the Henri Brunet, a supply ship that delivered to the area.
Port Essington
In 1966 Jim Allen undertook the first professional excavation of European site in Australia. The 1840s military settlement of Victoria was established at Port Essington, the northernmost part of the Northern Territory and was the end point of Ludwig Leichhardt's epic journey in 1844-45. This settlement was the longest lived of three failed attempts by the British to establish a settlement on the northern coast of Australia before 1850. Its history reflects many of the dominant themes of wider colonial history - isolation, tropical disease, poorly equipped and inexperienced colonists, inept government bureaucracies and relations with the Indigenous population.
