“Magnetometer Survey at Barton Village”
~Dr. Tim Horsley~


An extensive magnetometer survey was conducted this year, at the Barton Village archaeological site. Assisted by members of the Chapter, Dr. Horsley confirmed some previous speculation and discovered many new and interesting clues to the previous occupation of the site. 

Dr. Horsley will explain the methods and results of his findings of this exciting non-invasive method of field survey.

The Western Maryland Chapter of the Archeological Society of Maryland was established to educate and encourage amateur archeologists by conducting field sessions, weekend digs and hosting guest speakers on a wide range of archeological topics. Projects such as the excavation of the Late Woodland sites in Cresaptown and Barton's in Allegany County and Sang Run in Garrett County have created a growing interest in our local cultural resources.
