The New Brunswick Archaeology Podcast

When the Computer First Came to NB Archaeology

This fortnight, Ken and Gabe have a chat with Dimity Hammon, Vice President of the Tubac Historical Society--who, while in warmer settings of the southwest today, cut her teeth in the cooler (and at times inhospitably wet) climes of New Brunswick. We talk to Dimity about her thesis work on the Holt's Point site and the famous engraved pebbles, the early days of archaeology at UNB, The Computer, and a dolphin out-of-water in the Passamaquoddy Bay. Not to mention, some Historic archaeology from the southwest!
