Zuniga's Fort

Zuniga's Fort Map A drawing of James Fort (ca. 1609) by Pedro de Zuniga, a Spanish ambassador and spy. The sketch shows a flag-like projection which is probably an enclosed garden. The three sides and circular bastions at the corners are common to all three decriptions of the early fort.
