Description: Just like other artifacts that archaeologists find, plant remains can say a lot about past people’s diet, environment, and culture. Archaeologists from the Florida Public Archaeology Network will teach attendees about how archaeologists study tiny preserved bits of plants to find out about people in the past. Then, attendees can try their hand at identifying a few native Florida plants using methods that archaeologists use. There will also be a craft activity available for attendees to enjoy.
