Passing the Trowel: A Century of Archaeology
Celebrate the grand opening of the Campbell Archaeology Center!
Free & Open to the Public
April 25 from 10 – 11 am
Hennage Auditorium
What we know about Williamsburg’s past today was shaped by choices archaeologists made decades ago—decisions about what to keep, what to study, and sometimes, what to leave behind. Who were the people behind those choices? Some turned out to be visionaries, while others stumbled upon discoveries by chance, and a few took paths that we view differently now. Join Senior Staff Archaeologist Meredith Poole for a lively discussion about the unsung heroes who built Colonial Williamsburg’s archaeological collection, and how their work continues to shape what we’re learning today.
