Augusta is the capital of Maine. ' The area was first explored by
members of the ill-fated Popham Colony in September 1607. It was
first inhabited by English settlers from the Plymouth Colony in
1629 as a trading post on the Kennebec River. The settlement was
known by its Indian name -- Cushnoc (or Coussinoc or Koussinoc),
meaning "head of tide." Fur trading was at first profitable, but
with Indian uprisings and declining revenues, the Plymouth Colony
sold the Kennebec Patent in 1661. Cushnoc would remain empty for
the next 75 years.
