ABOUT CHAPTER 14
Why was the Chapter organized?
The Forks of Delaware Chapter 14 of the Society for Pennsylvania Archaeology was organized on September 27, 1962 to promote the study of archaeology, both prehistoric and historic as represented in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, to encourage careful scientific research and excavation in the field and to discourage careless and misdirected digging, to promote the conservation and preservation and further the passage of laws prescribing such, to oppose the manufacture and sale of fraudulent antiquities, to encourage the establishment of local archaeological museums and organizations, to promote the spread of archaeological knowledge by means of meetings, publications and desirable publicity, to perpetuate and preserve Native Americans and Colonial place-names, and to serve as a bond between the individual archaeologist, collector and student.
