2013 ASM Fall Meeting

On Saturday November 9 the Mid-Potomac Chapter of ASM hosted the Archeological Society of Maryland, Inc (ASM) 2013 Fall Meeting at the Agricultural History Farm in Derwood, MD.  The CCASM members attending were Elsie Picyk, Jim Gibb, and Carol Cowherd.  Carol gave the CCASM chapter report during the business meeting.

It's always fun to catch up with others from around the state and hear what they are doing.  But the highlight of the meeting was the talks.  Below is the list.  If you get a chance to hear them at some other venue, you should try to go.  You won't be disappointed.
