SACRED SPACES: The Role of Archaeology in Preserving Historic Cemeteries

Historic cemeteries preserve the stories of communities, families, and traditions across generations. They provide insight into the state’s diverse heritage and reflect unique burial practices shaped by geography, religion, and culture. Preserving them protects not only the physical monuments and artistry but also ensures future generations access to local identity, genealogy, and shared history.
