In the News

The ever vigilant Elsie spotted two stories in the local newspaper on Charles County archaeology, the first about the work of our colleagues Julie King and Mike Sullivan in their search for the first courthouse, the second about our discovery of the Colonial period cemetery at Port Tobacco:

In other news, we are washing the materials from the June field session at an incredible rate and may well complete it by the end of this month. We'll begin labeling soon. The survey report for the Chimney House and Stagg Hall lots and the Edelen fields is all but done...apart from site numbers, it should be finished today.

Rock on.
