Today, July 12 at 11:00 am, Dr. Vin Steponaitis will be giving a free gallery talk about archaeological excavations currently being performed at the Feltus Site in Mississippi. This site, located on the former Ferguson Plantation, is pictured in Scene 18 and is where Dickeson excavated some of the finest artifacts on view in the exhibition gallery.

If you miss Dr. Steponaitis’s presentation today, you can catch the same talk tomorrow, Friday, July 13 at 6:00 pm. To learn more about the Feltus Site, check out the site’s archive here (most non-archaeologist friendly material is towards the bottom).

Come learn about an archaeological site that inspired the panorama!
