A Haunted Shadow: Maine's Augusta's 17th-Century Mystery

In Maine's Augusta, an ancient structure, constructed by Plymouth Colony in 1628, casts a chilling long shadow by the Kennebec River.

In Maine's sun-bleached Augusta, a ghostly shadow lingers. The Cushnoc Archeological Site, a relic of the Plymouth Colony, was erected in 1628, nestled by the riverside, Kennebec. The site keeps secrets as deep as the buried deals of old. New excavations near Fort Western have disturbed soil that eerily resembles a cemetery. The tormented spirits of this early New England settlement may forever remain hidden. The Cushnoc Site, a chilling specter of the past, continues to haunt the riverbanks.
