The Wingos Quarter was investigated by Dr. Barbara Heath, Dr. Eleanor Breen, Crystal Ptacek, and students from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville between 2007 and 2012. The assemblage is comprised of artifacts related to one cabin and its associated yard spaces. Read more and visit the site at its new home here: http://www.daacs.org/sites/wingos-2/#background.
