The Plymouth Colony Archive Project, created and maintained by Jim Deetz,
Patrica Scott Deetz and Christopher Fennell of the University of Virginia,
presents a fully searchable archive of original texts and analysis papers on
the Plymouth Colony, 1620-1691.

The Project has a new web address: <http://etext.virginia.edu/users/deetz/>

This site includes: fully searchable texts of early laws, court records,
wills, and probates; analyses of the colony legal structure, domestic
relations, early settlement, criminal records, individual biographical
information derived from court records, indentured servants and masters, and
archaeological analysis of house plans and material culture; fully
searchable texts such as Mourt's Relation (1622) and Goode Newes from New
England (1624); and the previously unpublished "Vernacular House Forms in
Seventeenth Century Plymouth: An Analysis of Evidence from the Plymouth
Colony Room-by-Room Probate Inventories, 1633-1685," by Jim and Trish Deetz.

The Plymouth Colony Archive has received awards for academic excellence and
has been selected as a featured link by The Study Web, AnthroTech Site
Reviews, The Library of Congress, National Council on Public History, The
Scout Report, ArchNet, About.com Guides, UCSB's Anthropology Web Sites,
Seeking Sites Afar, Education World, The Open Directory Project, and Surf
