This is the second episode of the “LEGACY” series and is brought to you by Maritime Legacy Project: Jamaica. The Maritime Legacy Project: Jamaica is a geoarchaeological initiative to Search for Columbus’s last shipwrecks in Jamaica which are the maritime component of the Taíno-Spanish Encounter of 1503. Host and Archaeologist Aj Van Slyke speaks on his start in the field, how his University of West Florida professors (Dr. Gregory Cook and Dr. Della Scott-Ireton of Florida Public Archaeology Network - Northwest Region), shipwrecks, and Jamaica’s maritime legacy shaped his experience. 

In the coming months, the LEGACY series will interview the co-founders of the Maritime Legacy Project, Mare Everett Franklin, and Dorrick Gray, as well as others who have searched for the Caravels or joined our team, such as Morgan Smith, Shawn Joy, Gabrielle Miller, and Chris Horrell.
