Come join us for a virtual archaeology presentation! Guest speaker Dr. Jim Gibb will explain archaeological findings from a historical mill village in Harford County, MD.

Excavations beneath the floor of a kitchen addition to a house of uncertain date at Jerusalem Mills, Gunpowder Falls State Park, revealed more than decades of domestic debris, some dating to the early 19th century. A stone foundation clearly indicated an earlier building. When was it built, why was it replaced? Smithsonian Environmental Archaeology Laboratory teamed with members of the Friends of Jerusalem Mills and the Archeological Society of the Northern Chesapeake to find the answers. This illustrated talk introduces the preserved mill village of which the Lee-Pullen House is a part, the reasons for our investigation, our results, and our future goals.

This presentation will be held live over Zoom. It will also be recorded and uploaded to the St. Mary's County Library YouTube channel.

If you would like to attend this event live and/or watch the recording, please register with an email address to receive the Zoom link the day before the event. The YouTube link to the recording will be emailed to everyone who registers for this program.
