     Are you interested in what life was like in Maine in 1650 A.D., or 10,000 years ago? Perhaps you have always been interested in antiquities, or perhaps you have just read news reports of archaeological work in the state and wish to find out more. There is a great deal of work being done in this state on prehistoric Native American campsites, on colonial villages, forts, and even shipwrecks. To learn more about this interesting work and the collections of artifacts it produces, you should consider joining THE MAINE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY.
