Join Howard County’s “Archaeology in the Parks” each month as we invite guest speakers and special experts to present their research! 

A Tale of Two Sites: The Battle of St. George’s Island 1776 (Maryland) and the Winter Cantonment of the Continental Artillery in 1778-1779 (New Jersey):

Join Washington College archaeologists Dr. John Seidel and Dr. Chuck Fithian as they present findings from two sites from the American Revolution. These sites offer not only a contrast in site types, but a compelling story of how the Americans adapted and professionalized over the course of a few short years. The following weekend, join us for a hands-on experience with Revolutionary War material culture!

For all ages. Event is free. Event is virtual. Please email for the link to the virtual programs and to register.
