This is the archaeologist Dave Brown, who is part of the Werowocomoco Research Group, a section of Honors GNED 400 and English 203 on a tour of Werowocomoco, the site of Powhatan’s capital in 1607, where John Smith was taken after his capture by VA Indians that winter. It’s where Pocahontas allegedly saved Smith’s life.
