Summary

[edit]
Description
English: "Snadoun Hill" (now Mount Agamenticus); detail from "A Description of New England," 1616, by Captain John Smith. Prince Charles was entreated to suggest replacements for "barbarous" aboriginal place names, so the Agamenticus River (now York River) region appears on the map as "Boston," and the Piscataqua River region as "Hull." "Smith's Isles" are today the Isles of Shoals.
