Program offers chance to get involved with future excavations at Rose Hill
Rose Hill Plantation State Historic Site is hosting an Archaeological Investigations event this Saturday, May 14, at 10 a.m. They say if you ever wonder how archaeologists decide where to dig, you can join the State Park archaeologist for a talk about the ongoing archaeological work at Rose Hill Plantation State Historic Site. At the event, you will hear about the results of past work, view artifacts, tour the archaeological sites, and have a chance to get involved with future excavations. After the talk, there will be an optional walking tour to the various archaeological site locations. The tour may include hiking off-trail and maintained lawn on uneven terrain. They advise you wear close-toed shoes or boots and clothing appropriate for the weather. The program is free, and no reservations are required. For more information, call the park at 427-5966 or email rosehill@scprt.com. Rose Hill Plantation State Historic Site is located at 2677 Sardis Road in Union.
