Professor Julia King of St. Mary’s College in St. Mary’s City, Md., spoke to Middlesex Elementary School teacher Paige Moore’s fifth grade classes about on-going archaeological research in Middlesex County. Dr. King was accompanied in the Wednesday, Nov. 9 presentation, by Bob Prichard, who is the current vice president of Saluda-based Middlesex County Museum and Historical Society.
The Museum and Historical Society helped arrange for the visit to the elementary school and had previously sponsored an online presentation by Dr. King about her work with the Rappahannock tribe.
She brought illustrations of early Virginia maps, and used samples of pottery shards, shells, projectile points, and a glass bead from the investigation in her presentation.
