Photos: Bodies discovered in Jamestown
A church dating to 1608 was discovered at the original Jamestown settlement in Virginia with the graves of four men.
A skull from one of the early leaders of Virginia’s Jamestown settlement is displayed at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington on July 28, 2015. A team of scientists from the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History and the Jamestown Rediscovery Foundation announced the identities of the Rev. Robert Hunt, Capt. Gabriel Archer, Sir Ferdinando Wainman and Capt. William West, high-status leaders who helped shape the future of America during the initial phase of the Jamestown colony, the first successful British colony that gave rise to modern-day America.
