In this episode we talk with county historic preservation officer Chris Davenport. Chris works for Palm Beach County and has over three decades of experience in the field of archaeology. We'll talk to him about what type of things county historic preservation officers do, and what it is like to work in archaeology for private companies, governments, and academia. He'll also describe a recent visit he led to a prehistoric mound site in south Florida called Big Mound City, the importance of public archaeology, and one way the field has changed over the years.
