I found my first projectile point on our ranch on the High Plains of Eastern Colorado when I was eight years old thus igniting a passion that continues today. I spent 24 years in military service before retiring in 2011.

Aşağı Pınar is a Neolithic site in Eastern Thrace located in the town of Kırklareli 300 m south of the main Bus centre on the road to Asilbeyli village. The site was recovered by M. Özdoğan in 1980. The excavations began in 1993 as a joint Project of İstanbul University and the German Archaeological Institute; since than extensive areas have been exposed revealing an uninterrupted sequence from Early Neolithic, ca. 6200 BC to Middle Neolithic ca. 4700 BC...
Excavations have now been concentrated on the northern sector of the site, where the earliest settlement was established. The rest of the site has been designed as an open-air museum comprising of distinct units.

In 2010, the remnants of a 16th century indigenous village were discovered in St. Vincent, on the construction terrain of the new International Argyle Airport. The Amerindian village is now reconstructed based on excavated floor plans and the detailed descriptions of 16th century travellers. The Cayo Village Reconstruction Project at Argyle is the first and only Kalinago-European site of encounter to be found and fully excavated.
The site was initially excavated by NEXUS 1492 archaeologists Dr. Corinne Hofman and Dr. Menno Hoogland and revealed floor plans of eleven Amerindian houses. Two of these dwellings were larger, elongated structures, which, using the dictionaries of Reverend Raymond Breton, were interpreted as men’s houses. Breton’s dictionaries include detailed descriptions of the houses and building materials.
In the interest of preserving this important local heritage, the Cayo Village was declared a National Heritage Site.
