Shipwreck and Salvation - The Wreck of The Prince Maurice in 1657

May18

On the night of March 13, 1657, as a Nor’easter raged, a Dutch ship, The Prince Maurice, slammed into the coast of Fire Island. Aboard were 129 souls – passengers, crew, and Dutch West India Company soldiers. Ashore were Indigenous people on their coastal night watch, listening to the ship crash against the shoal. Until now the story of this dramatic Long Island shipwreck and rescue has been known only to a handful of historians. But the rescue on an ice-laden beach has been part of Indigenous history for 400 years. Now, thanks to a generous grant from the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation, the New Amsterdam History Center’s groundbreaking Mapping Early New York project has combined old-fashioned research and new technology including AI, and a new window on history has opened wide for all of us to explore!
