Archaeology Opportunities at Rebel’s Rest

Tap into your inner Indiana Jones as the Rebel’s Rest excavation site welcomes volunteers who have a passion for Sewanee history or have always wanted to try their hand at archaeology. Excavation and artifact processing teams of volunteers will begin work on Monday, June 22. 

On July 23, 2014, fire destroyed the second floor of the 148-year-old historic house. The building was in the midst of renovations.

Volunteers on the project must be at least 16 years old and are asked to commit to two half-days or one full day per week on the site or in the lab. 


For more information email <sei@sewanee.edu> to receive a detailed information packet with excavation and lab protocols and waiver forms. Information is also available at <www.sewanee.edu/rebelsrest>.
