The first settlers of the 1600's came to Jamestown in search of new
land. This 17th century city was one of the few settlements that got us
where we are today. Another discovering colony was the Plymouth colony,
which discovered or founded the Americas. During these colonies
adventures to find new land for religious freedom, and adventure there
were many problems, failures, successes, and adventures that these
colonies had to take to find their new land.
The goal of the Jamestown settlers was a simple but easy one. They were out to find new land, adventure, gold, and spices.
But their trip was going to be a hard one, battling the seas;
starvation, disease, and even death were going to be problems on their
journey to America. As many as 100 people set out on the ship to find
new land. Some of the types of people on this ship were preachers,
carpenters, barbers, bricklayers, sailors, and many more. During their
adventure over the seas the settlers suffered from extreme starvation
and were forced to eat rats on the decks of the ship, leather from
shoes, and even wood after the food was completely emptied from the
ship. When the settlers first arrived at their new land they weren't
happily greeted, there were Indians that wanted to kill them, bugs that
swarmed over the land, and marshy areas that could not be used. But this
would all soon change when summer came around. Eventually the
temperature came warm, bugs died off, and there was peace made between
them and the Indians.
The Plymouth colony on the other hand, had an even better reason to
find new land; they were out for religious freedom and a new life. But
this would not be an easy task, for they too would also suffer from
disease, starvation, death and battling the seas in search of new land.
But when they arrived at Plymouth they were also unwanted by Indians. At
this new land they found, bug infested land, swampy areas, and the
Indians.
Marker beds are distinct strata that are found in other sites in the same region. They can give evidence to age of sediments in a new site if they’ve been assigned a date in other sites. The Mazama ash is consisted of fragments that were ejected into the air by a volcanic eruption of the Mount Mazama, from Oregon Cascades. It blew up 6900 years ago and the ashes were carried by the wind. When the ash settled, it created a marker bed.
