"Zoom into Archaeology"- The Maroon Marines: Archaeology at Prospect Bluff

Join us for the next installment of FPAN's "Zoom into Archaeology" series: "The Maroon Marines: Archaeology at Prospect Bluff" by FPAN Destination Archaeology Resource Center Manager Mike Thomin! During the War of 1812, a fort was built by Black British Colonial Marines and Indigenous people along the Apalachicola River. Called “Negro Fort” by American officials, it eventually became the center of the largest free Black settlement in what is now the United States. This talk highlights the history of this settlement and several artifacts recovered from the site that you can now view as 3D models online.
