Yes, the "First permanent settlement in the US established by English in 1607." is in this box but what is "Now home to: a museum, reconstructions of the fort and an indian village, archeological digs, sailing ships and a campground." are all in the Jamestown Settlement to the North-West. Jamestown Settlement is a state-run area featuring much more than what Historic Jamestowne can offer. Historic Jamestowne basically only has a small museam and The Dig. It also has a yearound laboratory and a Glasshouse.
