Archaeologists are dirt detectives who try to puzzle out the past from the artifacts and evidence left behind. During October’s San Jacinto Family Day, we’re celebrating Texas Archaeology Month as well!

We’ve created puzzles using images of real artifacts found during archaeological excavations at the San Jacinto Battleground. See if you can put them back together, and figure out what the object is and what it was used for, just life a real archaeologist!

We will also be handing out free take-home archaeology kits that include the materials to make a pinch pot!

When: Saturday, October 5; drop in between 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.

Where: San Jacinto Museum

Age Range: Kids 5+; younger children are welcome, but will need to have an adult to help.
