COMMUNITY & ARTS
C-SPAN Classroom has published a resource featuring Stephen O'Neill, guest curator of an archaeology exhibit at the Alden House historic site in Duxbury, discussing the 1960 excavation of the property, according to Google Alert coverage that surfaced the item. The Alden House, tied to Mayflower passenger John Alden, has long been a centerpiece of the town's colonial history and a draw for visitors and students of early American settlement.
The resource offers a look at how mid-20th-century archaeologists worked to document the original foundation and artifacts tied to the Alden family, material that continues to inform the site's ongoing exhibits for area residents and school groups.
