Overview

Profile

Digging Savannah, a public archaeology initiative at Georgia Southern University's Armstrong Campus, focuses on uncovering and preserving Savannah's buried archaeological record through community partnerships and student engagement. Addressing the threat of archaeological site loss, the initiative provides educational resources for teachers, conducts excavations, and offers guidance to landowners on artifact preservation and site protection. By connecting students with hands-on fieldwork and fostering public awareness, Digging Savannah aims to document Savannah's "hidden history" and mitigate the impact of development on valuable archaeological resources.
