File:Preserving Regional Heritage with the New College Public Archaeology Lab.jpg
The New College Public Archaeology Lab endeavors to stimulate an interest in local history and heritage among the general public while promoting an awareness of cultural resources and historic preservation. As public archaeology, the NCPAL programs focus on engaging residents and visitors through a variety of methods, which range from educational programs and demonstrations of archaeological practices to historic preservation and archaeological excavations. Each program or project is a partnership or collaboration that NCPAL undertakes to serve multiple goals such as supporting research on little understood aspects of the area’s past, providing resources to underserved communities to assist with preservation initiatives, sharing knowledge to encourage support for archaeological stewardship, and providing opportunities for undergraduates to engage in the process of public archaeology. This poster showcases examples of current projects including Looking for Angola; the Survey of the Galilee Cemetery: Community, Race, and Commemoration; and the Coastal Peoples of 19th century Sarasota Pass: Teaching Archaeology and the Environment for Elementary Schoolchildren.
