This
project consisted of four consecutive summers (1983-86) of archaeological
fieldwork at Flowerdew Hundred Plantation on the James River, Virginia. The site
has been continously occupied since Colonial times and, thanks to the
methodologies of historical archaeology, has revealed much about daily
life since the 16th century, including house construction, diet, imported
and domestic ceramics, burial customs, and slavery in Virginia. Dig
directed by Dr. James Deetz, then at the University of California, Berkeley.
