Nicole Grinnan, Public Archaeologist for Florida Public Archaeology Network will present Fantastic Archaeology: Florida Frauds, Myths and Mysteries to kick off Archaeology month in Florida.

Celebrate Florida archaeology by learning what archaeology is and, importantly, what it is not! This educational and entertaining talk will focus on the misuse and abuse of Florida’s past. Considering historical and modern day examples, we will discuss the many ways “belief in nonsense can be dangerous” (Kenneth Feder).

Nicole currently works with the Florida Public Archaeology Network, a program of the University of West Florida, as a research associate and public archaeologist for Florida’s northwest region. Her research interests include maritime archaeology and history, public interpretation of maritime cultural resources, and social history.
