English: Washington Navy Yard, D.C. (Jun. 26, 2003) -- An x-ray of an 18th century cast iron swivel gun recovered from the Penobscot River near Bangor, Maine, by the Naval Historical Center (NHC) Underwater Archaeology Branch. Note that it is still loaded with two iron shot and what appears to be the remnants of a paper or cloth powder bag. Behind the ammunition the conservators discovered a quantity of black powdery residue and a small swatch of burlap-like fabric. The gun is believed to be a relic from the Battle of Penobscot, which began June 1779 when the British army sent soldiers to Majabagaduce, Mass. (present day Castine, Maine) to establish a military and political headquarters for a new colony of loyalist subjects fleeing the rebellious colonies. Photo by James Hunter. (RELEASED) |
