Historical Archaeology and the Documentary Record - Dig Deeper, Episode 10

In this episode of Dig Deeper, staff archaeologist Lesley Jennings explains the importance of Historical Archaeology and the use of historic documents in understanding the excavations at Historic Jamestown. For the process of Historical Archaeology, historic documents such as letters and books are examined to find information regarding previous activities at the site and to inform what is being found in the field. In this episode, letters from the A.P.V.A. and two texts are examined for references to the tombstones of the graveyard relating to the 1617 timber-frame and later brick churches
