Cape Fear Archaeology

Cape Fear Archaeology refers to the study of past human activities in the Cape Fear region of North Carolina, an area rich in history due to its diverse cultures and environments. Archaeologists investigate sites like Native American settlements, colonial towns, and historic plantations to uncover artifacts, structures, and other evidence of how people lived and interacted with their surroundings. This research helps us understand the region's historical significance, cultural heritage, and the impact of changes over time, contributing to our broader knowledge of American history and the development of communities in the southeastern United States.
