Jamestown Rediscovery Jacket

$89.00

Description

Embroidered with the Jamestown Rediscovery logo, this jacket by Port Authority is the perfect attire for casual outdoor exploration or cheering on your favorite team from the stands. Its sweatshirt-lined hood and body provides warmth and comfort and its nylon shell repels water to keep you dry.

 

In 1608 Captain John Smith prepared two hand-drawn maps of James Fort and eastern Virginia to send back to England. While both maps are now lost, one drawing known as the Zuñiga map still survives.

Pedro de Zuñiga was the Spanish ambassador stationed in London. He obtained a copy of Smith’s map and smuggled it to King Philip III to inform him of English progress in colonizing North America.

This image of James Fort depicted on the Zuñiga map is used as the logo for the Jamestown Rediscovery project.
