Fantastic Archaeology: Florida Frauds, Myths, and Mysteries
Time: 10:30 am til 11:30 am
Location: Environmental Studies Center at Jensen Beach: 2900 NE Indian River Drive, Jensen Beach, FL
Description: Celebrate Florida archaeology by learning what archaeology is, and importantly what it is not. This educational and entertaining talk will focus on the misuse and abuse of Florida's past. Moving from historical to modern day examples we discuss the many ways “belief in nonsense can be dangerous (Kenneth Feder).”
