Fort Corchaug Archaeological Site

Fort Corchaug Archeological Site is an archaeological site showing evidence of 17th century contact between Native Americans and Europeans. Fort Corchaug itself was a log fort built by Native Americans. It may have been to protect the Corchaug tribe from other Indians, built with the help of Europeans.〔(Newsday.com Article on Site )〕 Ralph Solecki, a prominent American archaeologist, grew up nearby and conducted several digs on site.〔(NY Times article )〕
It remains today one of the few undisturbed Indian Fort archaeological sites in the North East.〔(Fort Corchaug History )〕 and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1999.
The Corchaug tribe, also known as the Montaukett, originally had the land from the Nassau border to Montauk point. Depradation by the Narragansett's of Connecticut and decimation from smallpox caused to tribe to leave their land in the South fork and with the help of white's built forts to ward off attacks. Another fort still being escavated is Fort Hill in Montauk Point, described as "one of the earliest and best for its time", it was placed on a 1658 map of Long Island.〔http://montaukett.org/?page_id=22〕
