Under the Isles of Shoals - Archaeology and Discovery on Smuttynose Island

Small artifacts tell big stories. Were prehistoric Native Americans hunting on the rocky Isles of Shoals 6,000 years ago? Did now-extinct "giant cod" really weigh over 120 pounds? Were there hundreds of European fishermen operating a profitable factory on these barren islands? How did they live? When did they arrive?
Award-winning history sriter J. Dennis Robinson tracks the recent discoveries by archaeologist Nathan Hamilton and his students as they uncover the secrets beneath the soil of Smuttynose Island.
