150.000 years ago history starts in Sealand for humankind. This is shown by an axx which was fond on a beach of Cadzand in Zeeuws-Vlaanderen. This area is a little higher then the rest of Sealand. Probably there where already farmers in Sealand from 4500 B.C.
Geen dierder plek voor ons op aard,
Geen oord ter wereld meer ons waard,
Dan, waar beschermd door dijk en duin,
Ons toelacht veld en bosch en tuin;
Waar steeds d'aloude Eendracht woont,
En welvaart 's landsmans werk bekroont,
waar klinkt des Leeuwen forsche stem;
"Ik worstel moedig en ontzwem!"
Het land, dat fier zijn zonen prijst,
En ons met trots de namen wijst,
Van Bestevaer en Joost de Moor,
Die blinken zullen d'eeuwen door;
Waarvan in de historieblaên,
De Evertsen en Bankert staan,
Dat immerhoog in eere houdt,
den onverschrokken Naerebout.
Gij, Zeeland, zijt ons eigen land,
Wij dulden hier geen vreemde hand,
Die over ons regeeren zou,
Aan onze vrijheid zijn wij trouw.
Wij hebben slechts één enk'le keus:
"Oranje en Zeeland!" da's de leus!
Zoo blijven wij met hart en mond,
Met lijf en ziel: goed Zeeuwsch goed rond.
