Yesterday was Fete Day at Elfreth's Alley. Current Temple University
graduate student Matt Kalos and undergraduate alum Paul Pluta were on
hand at the site to explain the project to the public. On view were an
open test excavation unit and some of the artifacts from last summer's
explorations. Throngs of visitors were thrilled to see a real
archaeological investigation in person, especially at a place as rich in
history as Elfreth's Alley. They were full of wonderful questions
about the project, and many vowed to come back later in the summer to
see what we discover in following weeks. All in all it was a great day
and a great way to start the season!
