>I have recently subscribed to the Historical Archaeology list because
I am currently researching for a paper on the archaeology of
battlefields. I am primarily concerned with the English Civil War,
having written several books and articles on the history and
archaeology of the war, but in the abs ce of very much systematic
archaeological research on English battlefield I have begun to look to
the U.S. for comparative studies of later battles but in which the
musket was still being used as the main firearm. I have tracked down
the obvious studies on the Little Bighorn (though this is rather oo
late for me as the musket was no longer in significant use by then). I
also have reports on the Palo-Alto and the Fallen Timbers battlefields.
However I have not been able to identify any other studies or to make
contact with anyone directly involved in battlefield archaeology in the
U.S.

where there is ongoing research or put me in touch with anyone
currently involved in battlefield research?
