![]() NPS Photo/2019 Archeology Summer Camp We have learned a lot about the people at Frederica, not just the colonists, but also other cultures who used the land before and after the colonial period by studying objects that were left behind; buried under layers and layers of dirt. Studying the layers of dirt, or stratigraphy as it is called, also helps archeologists learn about the past. After a hiatus, archeology education for Glynn County, GA students returned in 2018. Fort Frederica offers a field trip option for local 3rdth and 8th grade students that enables students to learn about the history of Frederica through the study of archeology. Archeology education also takes place in the summer. The staff at Fort Frederica, with assistance from the Friends of Fort Frederica, began offering Archeology Summer Camp for students in upper elementary school grades and middle school. ![]() NPS Photo/ 2018 Archeology Summer Camp |
