On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

This episode focuses on Chisholm Springs , located in Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, was a significant 19th-century trading post established by Jesse Chisholm. The post , featuring a stockade built by Auguste Pierre Chouteau, served as a crucial supply point during the California Gold Rush. Its historical importance is underscored by its inclusion of a blacksmith shop, fur warehouse, and its recent addition to the National Register of Historic Places. Washington Irving's 1832 visit predates the post's founding, offering early descriptions of the area.
