Meet the Scientist: Heather Clark

Ever wonder how archaeologists know where to dig, or how they keep track of what they find? Join us in the gallery for a special Meet the Scientist table with Heather Clark, CRSP Principal Investigator and CADD Specialist, who will share how archaeological mapping helps uncover and protect the stories buried beneath our feet.

Explore real historic artifacts, see how digital tools are used to create detailed site maps, and learn how science and storytelling come together in archaeology. Whether you're a history buff, a budding scientist, or just love learning something new, stop by and get inspired by the science of the past.
