Take a look at this fantastic Archaeology and Historic Preservation Month event and get ready for May 2025.
Every year in Utah, organizations around the state host events to honor Archaeology and Historic Preservation Month. In the run-up to this year’s celebration in May, the Utah SHPO is highlighting great partners and successful events. Here we speak to Ron Rood of Metcalf Archaeology about one of their events from May 2024.
