The Section of Archaeology at the State Museum will be conducting their excavation at Fort Hunter Mansion and Park between September 4 and October 4, 2019. Every fall since 2006, the Archaeology Section of the State Museum of Pennsylvania has led a month-long excavation at Fort Hunter Mansion and Park in Harrisburg, PA. Come out and see what we find this year! Artifacts will be on display and archaeologists will be on hand Monday-Friday, 9:30 am- 4:00 pm, weather permitting, to answer questions about the site and how field archaeology is conducted. This is a great opportunity to visit an archaeological site and experienced volunteers are always appreciated. Please contact Kurt Carr at (717)783-9926 or kcarr@pa.gov for additional information or to volunteer.
