Author(s): Luke Pecoraro

Year: 2024

Summary

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Fieldwork at Drayton Hall has taken place since the plantation was acquired by the National Trust for Historic Preservation in 1974 and continued through short excavation campaigns to the present. A renewed emphasis for archaeology is currently underway, with a strategic plan to more holistically explore the landscape and the service areas within the main house. This poster will illustrate the new trajectory of work with updates on recent findings.
