Archaeology at Warren Wilson College

Summer sessions up to a month long are offered at Warren Wilson College's archaeology field school, where adults and kids as young as 14 are put on sites to dig and excavate history while uncovering a 16th-century Native American town and an early Spanish settlement. The 2008-2009 sessions concentrate on a one-acre area featuring what is believed to be Fort San Juan, a Spanish compound that is the earliest European settlements ever found in the interior of the United States.
