Archaeology at Fort Saint-Louis - Part 8

Archaeology at Fort Saint-Louis - Part 8

A very foggy day on site today.

 

Thomasina uncovered a wonderful artifact today - a fragment of rolled trade copper.

 

We uncovered a significant burn layer and an excellent sample of charred wood. Is this linked to the 1640s fire that was on the site?
