Pictou, Nova Scotia. The Hector Heritage Quay, seen here, is a historical interpretive centre built in 1992. Despite its name, which in Latin means "New Scotland", there was no significant population of Scots in Nova Scotia until 1773, when the 85-foot, Dutch-built sailing ship Hector arrived at Pictou after an arduous 11-week voyage on the Atlantic, carrying 189 Highlanders recruited with promises of free passage, a year's worth of free provisions, and a farm on the fertile shores of the Northumberland Strait. Despite the fact that the free provisions never materialized, the Scottish settlement survived and thrived, and Pictou would become important as the first stop for many future waves of Scottish immigrants who would settle all over Nova Scotia and Cape Breton Island. Pictou, Nouvelle-Écosse. Le Quai patrimoniale de l'Hector, vu ici, est un centre d'interprétation historique qui a été construit en 1992. Malgré son nom, il n'y avait aucune population importante d'Écossais en la Nouvelle-Écosse jusqu'en 1773, lorsque le voilier de 85 pieds de construction hollandaise, Hector, est arrivé à Pictou suite d'un voyage ardu de 11 semaines sur l'Atlantique, transportant 189 Écossais des Highlands recrutés avec des promesses d'un passage gratuit, d'une année de dispositions gratuits, et d'une ferme sur les rives fertiles du détroit de Northumberland. Malgré le fait que les dispositions gratuits ne se sont jamais concrétisé, la colonie écossaise a survécu et a prospéré, et Pictou deviendrait important comme le premier arrêt pour de nombreuses futures vagues d'immigrants écossais désireux de s'installer partout en la Nouvelle-Écosse et l'île du Cap-Breton. Pictou, Nueva Escocia. El Muelle Patrimonial del Héctor, que se ve aquí, es un centro de interpretación histórica que se construyó en 1992. A pesar de su nombre, no había ninguna población significativa de escoceses en Nueva Escocia hasta 1773, cuando el barco de vela de 85 pies de construcción holandesa Héctor, llegó a Pictou tras un viaje arduo de 11 semanas en el Atlántico, llevando 189 escoceses de las Tierras Altas que se reclutaron con promesas de paso gratuito, un año de provisiones gratuitas, y una finca en las orillas fértiles del Estrecho de Northumberland. Aunque las disposiciones gratuitas nunca se materializaran, la colonia escocesa sobrevivió y prosperó, y Pictou se hizo importante como la primera parada para muchas olas futuras de inmigrantes escoceses que se establecerían por todo Nueva Escocia y la Isla del Cabo Bretón. |
