LA ROE VAN HORN HOUSE ARCHAEOLOGY
November 19, 2009
A site formerly the home of the President of Ramapo College, originally excavated in 1980, was the 1750 Laroe-Van Horn House and the 1700 Indian Trading Post established by Blandina Bayard. Seven excavation units were opened around the house and over 13,000 artifacts were recovered. The artifacts recovered are now part of the Mahwah Museum Collection and were analyzed in 2009 by noted Archaeologist Edward J. Lenik, author of many books on historic and pre-historic Indian topics, who will discuss his findings.
