Autumn Melby, University of Pennsylvania, will give a presentation on current excavations at the Hawkins Hollow site near Old Valmeyer, in Monroe County, Illinois. The site is a rural late Mississippian homestead occupation. Previous excavations by ISAS (Illinois State Archaeological Survey) had located a house on one side of a road and the Penn State project is revealing another structure on the opposite side of the road that may have been burned.
