Godspeed, Discovery, Susan Constant, ship replicas, Jamestown Settlement, Virginia, USA

Explore ship replicas Godspeed, Discovery, and flagship Susan Constant at Jamestown Settlement, in Virginia, USA. The mouth of a cannon defends the Susan Constant. The English Virginia Company sailed these three vessels 1606-1607 to found Jamestown, the first permanent English colony in the Americas. Jamestown Settlement, operated by the state's Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation, chronicles 1600s Virginia and the convergence of Powhatan Indian, European, and west central African cultures. Created as part of the 350th anniversary celebration in 1957 as Jamestown Festival Park, Jamestown Settlement is adjacent to the complementary "Historic Jamestowne" museum (which is on Jamestown Island, is the actual historic and archaeological site where the first settlers lived, and is run by the National Park Service and Preservation Virginia). (This composite photo is stitched from two overlapping images to improve depth of focus.)
