PBCAS October Lecture: October 18th, 2012 7pm

"Recent Excavations at Palm Beach County's Dubois Park" 
Presented by Christian Davenport MA., RPA, Palm Beach County's Archaeologist and Historic Preservation Officer
Davenport's lecture will summarize the results of archaeological excavations undertaken at the Dubois Park/Jupiter Inlet I, multi-component archaeological site during the 2010 and 2011 field seasons. This new research sheds new light on this significant and publicly accessible ancient Native American coastal site.  Davenport's work details how the site may have looked and functioned between A.D. 800 and A.D. 1700.  In addition, the discovery of evidence possibly left behind by the first European explorers to visit our area will be addressed.

Where: The Paramount Theatre 139 N. County Rd. Palm Beach, 33480
