Local Event: SDAC Visiting Scholar Day: The Archaeology of Cary Ranch presented by Bill Eckhardt
Saturday, May 11, 2013. 11:00 am-1:00 pm. San Diego Archaeological Center. 16666 San Pasqual Valley Road, Escondido, CA 92027.
The archaeology of Cary Ranch represents a cultural legacy of archaeological, ethnographic, and historic resources: beginning at an unknown time in the prehistoric epoch, marked by European explorations in the late eighteenth century, and bearing the developments of historic elements from homesteading and ranching in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Research of existing collections has identified several assemblages recognized as being removed from their contexts with almost no documentation. Efforts to reassemble information surrounding these assemblages are discussed, and methods of examining the potential to reconstruct their provenience are reviewed.
