Archaeologist to explain artifacts found under Harpers Ferry street

About 1,200 artifacts from this historic town’s everyday past were found underneath an original thoroughfare during a recent street reconstruction project. A special presentation by the Baltimore-based archaeologist is scheduled during a special presentation Monday evening at Town Hall to highlight and explain what those recovered objects.

Elizabeth Comer, president of EAC/Archaeology Inc. in Baltimore, monitored the $2.4 million beautification and reconstruction of Potomac Street. On Monday she plans to bring photos and diagrams that document what was recovered during the Potomac Street reconstruction in 2016.
