Location: Manasota Beach Club, 7660 Manasota Key Rd, Englewood, FL 34223
Description: 31st Annual Manasota Beach Club (MBC)--Monday Lecture Series - Kenneth Nash, Gulf Archaeology Research Institute (GARI): “Gulf Coast Climate Change and Prehistory: An Overview.”
Archaeology & Environmental Change on the Gulf Coast
The 2019 speaker series is aimed at a general audience and will explore the view of historical archaeology and its related research as it applies to important Florida gulf coast issues. Serious problems challenge the coast including population growth, pollution, habitat loss, increased water levels, and climate change. Historical archeology can provide a mirror to the past and a window to the future by providing historic and prehistoric baselines, rates of change, and offer more accurate forecasts that can assist other researchers in mitigating and managing gulf coast change effectively.
The “talk” and luncheon is $25 plus tax and gratuity; reservations are required due to limited seating. For additional info and reservations, contact Manasota Beach Club at 941-474-2614, or Dr. Laurence Kruckman, program organizer 724-422-8525.
