Miriam Amirault’s mysterious departure from The Curse Of Oak Island explained
Fans of The Curse of Oak Island on the History Channel were disheartened by archaeologist Miriam Amirault’s departure.
She quickly became a beloved cast member after joining in Season 8.
Amirault was recruited by Dr. Aaron Taylor, her professor and mentor at Acadia University. She quickly stood out on the show for her expertise in archaeology and anthropology.
Viewers of the series also become fond of her due to her humorous interactions with treasure-hunting enthusiasts Rick and Marty Lagina.
Her journey on Oak Island began in Season 8, where she contributed insights on various historical artifacts the team uncovered, including a significant Mi’kmaq pottery fragment.
This discovery brought in Nova Scotia’s heritage regulations, which required a halt in filming to ensure that the indigenous artifact was adequately preserved and studied.
Consequently, Amirault and several other archaeologists exited temporarily as the show complied with provincial regulations for further archaeological review.
Although the pause was initially temporary, Amirault did not reappear in Season 9, leaving viewers wondering about her status on the show.
Amirault made a brief return in Season 10, appearing in several episodes, but by the season’s conclusion, she left the show again without further explanation.
