My parents took me to a LOT of hist sites. I took an intro arch class in college. We made pottery, arrowheads, and bronze axe heads. The hands-on bit was the most fun. We also had an atlatl team! I got to dig during my field school, and I was HOOKED. That’s my #ArchaeoStart.

#IAD is today! We are celebrating with Parkeology taking place at Plum Bayou Mounds Archeological State Park in Scott, AR.

I have always had a passion for history & learning about the past. I was attending my first arch field school & sieving some dirt. I saw a stone arrowhead at the bottom of the sieve. That was the moment I decided to pursue arch as a career. #ArchaeoStart
