2002 Events

We will meet September 20, at Dennis Spaghetti & Steak House in Chesapeake, our guest speaker will be Allen Outlaw.The TITLE "Archaeology in the Private Sector" Assisting clients in the private sector with archaeology offers special challenges not faced by the more leisurely study of sites in protected settings. This lecture provides examples of how situations were handled with limited time and funding to insure that buried resources were properly recorded. On November 2 we will have an Artifact Identification Day at The Nansemond Indian Tribal Center 6068 Rt.10 Chuckatuck,Va. from 11:00AM-2:00PM. Everyone is welcome to bring their artifacts.
