Description
When a routine upgrading of utilities uncovered an archaeological site at Fort Douglas, a doorway into the past was opened -- and you are invited to step through. Enjoy a unique opportunity to both learn the history of the Fort and early Utah interactions with the military, and acquire a hands-on introduction to archaeological principles, laboratory methods, and material culture. With the guidance of two professional archaeologists, you'll interact with the Fort Douglas site as you process recovered artifacts - including cleaning, sorting, and researching individual items - and directly contribute to the preservation and interpretation of Fort Douglas's past.
