Preservation Pennsylvania Announces Eight Sites Chosen for Pennsylvania at Risk 2015

Read the descriptions of the sites here.  There is also an excellent, and quick overview, of the fate of 200+ sites since 1992. I would propose that that assessment overview of what happens to threatened historical properties is pretty much relevant not only to sites in Pennsylvania but to sites in other states, including Maryland and Virginia.

I am writing in regards to the 2016 Archaeology Field School offered by the Department of Anthropology at St. Mary’s College of Maryland.  This summer we will be investigating the great house and surrounding outbuildings of the 17th and 18th century plantation of West Ashcom on the Pautuxant River.  Here’s the link for more information.
