Seditious Sentiment along the Cape Fear: New Discoveries at Brunswick Town

Summary

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Archaeology of Meat and Ale (General Sessions)" , at the 2021 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

Stanley South’s decade of investigations at Brunswick Town, NC became iconic to historical archaeologists through his numerous publications. When Stanley moved on at the end of the 1960’s, so did the profession, and the sustained archaeological program ceased. Recent work by East Carolina archaeologists and students has revived interest in the site and made some remarkable discoveries, including an 18th c. tavern and evidence of opposition to the Crown. The recent discoveries indicate there is still much to learn in Brunswick.
