The information here is based on archaeological excavations, archival research, and participant interviews of the living residents of this area. It is truly a unique presentation of this area's history through time, and will provide readers with a greater appreciation of the history of the area around the Georgia/South Carolina border in general.

This web site was created because the book is no longer in print. In crafting a web version of this popular history, the Southeast Archeological Center hopes to spread the information found in this volume to a wider audience. If you like what you read, please feel free to let others know about the site. Thank you for your interest in Beneath These Waters.
