Discover the buried history of Western Long Island’s only Native American fortress.
Massapequa Archaeology: The Story of Fort Massapeag unveils the definitive history of the only Native American fort on Western Long Island. Officially designated as a National Historic Landmark, this site was the flashpoint where Algonquian and European cultures collided during the turbulent 17th century.
For over two centuries, the true significance of Fort Massapeag lay hidden beneath the soil of the local community. Now, Professor and researcher Dr. John DiMarco masterfully transforms decades of scholarly data into a concise, 100-page visual guide suitable for history lovers, students, and residents alike.
Inside this illustrated history, you will:
• Explore Rare Artifacts: View images of tools, pottery, and weapons from both the Pre-Contact and Historic Contact periods, tracing the evolution of the Massapequa people.
• Uncover the Excavation: Follow the inspiring journey of the archaeologists and preservationists who fought to unearth and protect this forgotten chapter of Indigenous history at Fort Neck.
• Understand the Conflict: Gain a clear view of the complex, often volatile relationship between the Massapequa sachems and European settlers at a pivotal turning point in American history.
Own the definitive guide to Massapequa’s most important historic site. This book offers an accessible, visual understanding of the Algonquian world before and after the arrival of the Europeans.
