CHARLOTTE AMALIE — Some 2,000 years ago there was likely a thriving Taino community in the heart of St. Thomas.
In 2013, contractors began turning up shards of pottery and other artifacts during otherwise routine roadwork on Main Street near Market Square.
Work was temporarily halted and archeologists were called in to help dig up what was described as a “major” find. Thousands of artifacts were eventually discovered in a relatively small area. Tune into the Government Access
Channel (Channel 27) or visit their website throughout the month of March to watch a short documentary about the dig and the many interesting objects found on site.
