Archaeology Live!

Archaeology in Annapolis is having a busy week with their current project at Fleet Street and Cornhill Street just off of State Circle. AIA is conducting archaeological digs of the area prior to utility undergrounding work. The project participants began the project without any expectations of what they were going to find and were they surprised when they uncovered a log road from the late 17th or early 18th centuries.

Seeking Liberty's very own Jessica Mundt is working on this project and will be providing updates and information on the project's findings in the coming days, but for now please read the following articles from the Baltimore Sun and the Capital.

Archaeology in Annapolis is expected to continue digging on Fleet and Cornhill Streets for another four weeks. If you have a chance, please stop by and watch archaeology in action. You never know what you might see!

Congratulations on a fantastic find AIA!
