Forsyth
Artifact ID Day, August 23rd
August 23 –
11-3 pm at the Old Depot building in Forsyth(Monroe Co.).
Thanks to
the Monroe County Historical Society for helping to set this up!
OAS
members David Mincey, John Trussell, and Stephen Hammack went to Forsyth on
Aug.23 to assist the Monroe County Historical Society (at their Old Depot Museum)
with another day of fun. There we had
about 25 folks drop in with their points and pottery and historic tobacco cans
and small historic ceramics (see attached photos). We saw one Dalton point, but did not record
it since it was from Florida. David
Mincey, Sam Lawson, and Stephen Hammack also attended the SOGART Archaeological
Symposium on Aug. 9th in Douglas, GA, where a whole range of great talks were
heard.
Again,
if you have not attended this great day of down home friendship and
invigorating discussion, try to make it next year. It is well worth the effort!
