focus on local farmland
Release Date: January 30, 2004
MONMOUTH, Ill. — Sharron Santure will deliver the
next archaeology lecture at Monmouth College on Feb. 11 at 7:30 p.m. in
Classrooms 1012 A&B in the Huff Athletic Center. Sponsored by the Western
Illinois Society of the Archaeological Institute of America (AIA) and the
MC Classics department, the series is free and open to the public.
Santure, a cultural resources specialist with the
U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service,
will address the issue of “Archaeology and Soil Conservation.” Her talk
should be of interest to many members of western Illinois’ agricultural
community.
“Issues of land management and concerns about
preserving archaeological sites often intersect, especially in the rich,
archaeological landscape of western Illinois,” said Santure, who will
demonstrate how archaeological sites are being identified and protected
during soil conservation activities in this area’s farmland.
