2015 ASM "Fall Classic" Field Session

October 9 - 20 the Archaeological Society of Maryland, Inc (ASM) returned to the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center (SERC) in Edgewater, Anne Arundel County, Maryland, for the 2015 "Fall Classic" Field Session.  Dr. Jim Gibb was the principal investigator.  In addition to being a member of ASM, Jim is also a member of CCASM.  At least two other CCASM members participated.

The field session activities included excavation, feature definition and lab work.  The excavation was in several areas that had previously been identified by magnetometer.  Most of the areas were near the Java House Ruin (1747), but one that may have been associated with a tenant house was closer to the river.  A Certified Archeological Technician workshop on historic ceramics was also offered.


CCASM is a chapter of ASM.
