Christee, it is amazing they found a site undisturbed. It will be interesting to see what artifacts are uncovered.

Hi there.... I guess it was reported in the Savannah news, but it is actually near Millen GA, about 25 miles from my hometown. There's alot of hubbub locally about it (from what I hear - I'm 600 miles away...).
