The narrative that the batteries were built later is obvious because they look like crap with much lesser quality construction compared to the original star....kinda like building architecture all over the flat.

This star is particularly interesting because a good sized section was blown out, exposing construction.

From last weeks tour.

Allegedly built by 200 slaves “rented” by US gov’t from plantation owners between 1819-1834.

Multiple batteries added later.

Scale of structure & Arches awfully impressive for unskilled labor.
