[edit]

I went to the History section looking for information on what, if any, of the plantation is original, how it's grown over time, etc. Instead I found this: "Telling the iconic story of Plymouth Colony was the fulfillment of a young archaeologist’s boyhood dream." Blech. It would be great if anyone with sources could make this a useful article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.217.33.111 (talk) 16:27, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling

[edit]

Can a section be added about the odd spelling. Both the original Plymouth in England from where the Mayflower sailed, and the Plymouth in MA are spelled with a y. Why has this spelling been chosen for the place? Was it always spelled like this (ie from the site's inception)?

I believe so. It's probably mainly a form of branding to distinguish it from the other "Plymouths", but historically, many place names had variant spellings before they became uniformly standardized. "Plimoth", one such variant, looks more "archaic" than "Plymouth", I suppose. WP Ludicer (talk) 08:11, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Updated Name?

[edit]

It seems the official name of this site/organization is now Plimoth Patuxet Museums. This Wikipedia page should be changed to reflect this, right? (That is, the primary title/name for this page should now read Plimoth Patuxet Museums, right?) Cjslaby (talk) 15:29, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
