Dr. James Gibb will use an archaeological lens to discuss findings from a 17th-century plantation in Calvert County.

The peg-legged, one-eyed, cutlass-wielding pirate is a mainstay of comedic movies and television advertisements. Evidence from a 17th-century plantation site in southern Calvert County suggests a less colorful image: common merchantmen smuggling bales of fabric and crates of ceramics. In this illustrated presentation, Dr. Gibb will explore restrictions on the importation of non-British goods to Maryland and the evidence for smuggling in archaeological deposits dating to the 1650s and 1660s.
