Description
A team of underwater archaeologists from across the country,
led by James Adovasio and Andy Hemmings of Mercyhurst University, will be diving
at two sites off Floridaâs Gulf Coast that was first visited in 2009. At each of
these locations, electronic documentation was made of intact river channel
features of the Pleistocene Suwannee River which are now filled with multiple
layers of sediment. This previous work has helped to decide exactly where the
team excavated through the sands of the modern seafloor.
