Archaeology Month Lecture Archaeology Month Lecture–’Maria, Put the Kettle On! We’ll All Have Some Tea”: Public Archaeology at the 19th Century Munson House at Spring Mill State Park”Maria, Put the Kettle On! We’ll All Have Some Tea’: Public Archaeology at the 19th Century Munson House

12:00 pm to 01:00 pm
Mathers Museum of World Cultures/Glenn Black Laboratory of Archaeology, 416 North Indiana Avenue

Archaeological sites have life histories that can be told much like the biography of a person. April Sievert will discuss how artifacts and features of a cellar beneath the Munson House at Spring Mill State Park in Lawrence County, Indiana, testify how families in southern Indiana lived in the mid-1800s. The house location has provided a place to interpret pioneer lifeways since the 1920s, and now archaeology has added to what we know about this place and its inhabitants. Sievert is Senior Lecturer in Anthropology at Indiana University and an avid supporter of making archaeology accessible to the public. She does research at Spring Mill State Park on 19th century rural industry, studies the prehistory of stone tools, and also does research on college teaching.
