Coastal Now - Archaeology Field School at Brookgreen Gardens

Описание: Several Coastal Carolina University students spent the past month delving into the past at an old plantation site at Brookgreen Gardens in Murrells Inlet. The students participated in associate professor David Palmer‘s Archaeological Field School. They returned to a site that was first explored by archaeologists in 1980, but had not been the subject of study for more than 40 years.

Courses within the anthropology and geography department regularly allow students to search for new discoveries in rich historical sites throughout the region. To learn more, visit https://www.coastal.edu/anthropology-...
