  • Introducing New Amsterdam One Useful Way to Understand History Is to Forget “History” and Instead Think of the Introducing Past in Terms of Archaeology
    Life in New Amsterdam Educator Resource Guide This guide is made possible by The Netherlands Consulate General in New York. Russell Shorto Introducing New Amsterdam One useful way to understand history is to forget “history” and instead think of the Introducing past in terms of archaeology. Think of layers of civilization, one on top of the other. New Amsterdam Now imagine yourself with a shovel, standing on the surface. You begin digging into the layers of America’s story, searching for its beginnings. You dig through the 20th century, and reach the 19th, finding remnants of the era of horse–drawn buggies, of the Civil War, of the advent of steam–engines. You dig further, and come to the American Revolution: the powdered wigs, the muskets, the gentlemen in Philadelphia grandly inscribing their signatures to a document declaring their independence from Great Britain. This is it: the bedrock of American culture and history, the bottom layer. But no, of course that is not true. Beneath the Revolution lies the colonial period, with its cities burgeoning, its tobacco plantations worked by slaves, its residents thinking of themselves not so much as Americans but as Virginians or Pennsylvanians or New Yorkers. This, then, surely, is the bedrock, the root of all later American history. Actually, no. For the colonies of the 18th century have their roots in the 17th century. Many of these original European settlements — Virginia, the Massachusetts Bay Colony — were English. But not all of them were. This volume explores one of those earliest colonies, which was not founded by the English and which, though largely forgotten in the standard telling of American history, exerted an enormous influence on American culture.

  • Brooklyn Began Here …
    Brooklyn began here … The land that became Boerum Hill was part of the town of Breuckelen, one of the six original Dutch towns that made up what is now the borough of Brooklyn. These original towns were, in the order of their incorporation: 1645, Gravesend settle by English Anabaptist leader Lady Deborah Moody under Dutch patent. (The only American colony founded by a woman.) 1646, Breuckelen, after the ancient village of the same name in Holland 1647, Nieuw Amersfoot, became Flatlands 1652, Midwout, became Flatbush 1657, Nieuw Utrecht, after the city of Utrecht, Netherlands 1661, Boswijick, became Bushwick Breuckelen may have been nearly the earliest incorporated town (earlier even than the capital of the Dutch West India colony located across the East River on the tip of the island of the Manhattoe tribe, New Amsterdam, which was incorporated in 1653) but it was not the first settlement. That distinction goes to the village of Gowanus, founded in 1636 when agents of the Dutch West India Company purchased nearly 1,000 acres along and south of what is today called the Gowanus Bay, from Gowane, a leader of the Carnarse Indians. Coincidentally, the Dutch word for bay is gouwee. A fact which serves as the foundation for an argument over how Gowanus got its name. The approximate outline of the original village of Gowanus, Long Island’s oldest European settlement, can be seen as a green box on the composite map below. The Boerum Hill neighborhood has in the past been referred to as North Gowanus - the area north of the village of Gowanus which extended as far north as Gowanus creek.

In 1985, a number of goals and research questions were proposed in relation to the archaeology of' pre-1664 sites in the Dutch colony of New Netherland. Significant Dutch sites were subsequently ~xcavated in Albany, Kingston, and other places from 1986 through 1988, while a series of useful publications con­ tinued to be produced after 1988.

  • Jews in New Amsterdam 1654 Leo Hershkowitz in Late Summer 1654, Two Ships Anchored in New Amsterdam Roadstead
    ARTICLE By Chance or Choice: Jews in New Amsterdam 1654 Leo Hershkowitz In late summer 1654, two ships anchored in New Amsterdam roadstead. One, the Peereboom (Peartree), arrived from Amsterdam on or about August 22. The other, a Dutch vessel named the St. [Sint] Catrina, is often referred to as the French warship St. Catherine or St. Charles. Yet, only the name St. Catrina appears in original records, having entered a few days before September 7 from the West Indies. The Peereboom, Jan Pietersz Ketel, skipper, left Amsterdam July 8 for London, soon after peace negotiations in April concluded the first Anglo-Dutch War (1652–1654). Following a short stay, the Peereboom sailed for New Amsterdam, where passengers and cargo were ferried ashore, as there were no suitable docks or wharves. Among those who disembarked were Jacob Barsimon, probably together with Asser Levy and Solomon Pietersen. These were the first known Jews to set foot in the Dutch settlement, and with them begins the history of that community in New York.1 A number of vessels arrived and departed New Amsterdam during 1654 and early 1655, including the Gelderse Bloem (Flower of Gelderland), Swarte Arent (Black Eagle), Schaal (Shell), Beer (Bear), Groot Christofel (Great Christopher), Koning Solomon (King Solomon), Jonge Raafe (Young Raven), and d’Zwaluw (Swallow). Perhaps Pietersen and Levy were on one of these, but given the extensive use of the Peereboom, it seems likely they would have been on that ship. Regardless of which vessel they were on, they came by choice. These were not refugees fleeing imminent persecution.
