Summary

This accession consists of images used in the exhibit "Written in Bone: Forensic Files of the 17th-Century Chesapeake" which ran from February 7, 2009, to January 6, 2014. The exhibit examined history through forensic anthropological investigations of 17th-century human skeletal remains, including those of colonists teetering on the edge of survival at Jamestown, Virginia; those living in the wealthy and well-established settlement of Saint Mary's (Marys) City, Maryland; and farmers located in Leavy Neck in Anne Arundel County, Maryland. Materials also include a spreadsheet that provides details about each image. Materials are in electronic format.
