Hall of Clestrain
We're digging at the Hall of Clestrain this weekend....you might have heard of it, you might not have.
It was the home of John Rae, an Orcadian man and Arctic explorer essentially written out of history by the British establishment for discovering the truth about the loss of the Franklin expedition. It didn't fit with the British narrative....and the fact Rae integrated with Inuit society to learn about Arctic survival and navigation in his search for Franklin really upset a lot of people back then.
