A great book that presents background information about archaeology, how archaeologists decide where to dig, how the digging is done, how the artifacts ended up in the ground, and what archeologists do with what they find. Additionally, what archeologists learn from what they find and why archeology is important in Williamsburg, Virginia. There is also a glossary in the book. The book includes photos of finds such as a toothbrush that belonged to Thomas Jefferson, jewelry, coins, and clothing among other artifacts. There is also a “Children’s Artifacts” section. The pictures of found items, and the people working at dig sites really highlight the text.
 * **//Archaeology For Young Explorers Uncovering History at Colonial Williamsburg//** by Patricia Samford and David L. Ribblett
