We continue to expand and update this project. Recent additions include
materials you can use in educational exercises, including: links to a
number of lesson plans; a detailed photographic tour to illustrate Jim
Deetz and Edwin Dethlefsen's study of stylistic changes in grave art,
entitled "Death's Head, Cherub, Urn and Willow"; text and photographic
illustrations of Deetz's findings of evidence indicating elements of
African-American architectural and mortuary traditions at the Parting Ways
site in Plymouth County; and an expanded collection of historic-period
maps of Plymouth and the New England region.
The Plymouth Colony Archive web site, which is available at
<http://etext.virginia.edu/users/deetz/> has been selected by the National
Endowment for the Humanities as one of the best resources for humanities
studies on the internet. We welcome all comments and suggestions of how we
can better present the materials we have made available and what
additional materials you would like to see added.
Thanks, and happy holidays!
