Please join us on Tuesday, Sept. 17, at the Burpee Museum of Natural History for another fascinating presentation on archaeology, featuring returning speaker Dr. Derek Counts, Distinguished Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and co-director of the Athieniou Archaeology Project for Cyprus.

Dr. Counts will uncover perspectives from past and current residents and “diggers” to construct an alternative archaeological history of the region. The event will feature an opportunity to meet the speaker after his presentation.

The public is invited to a free reception held immediately following each in-person presentation.

Burpee Museum is handicapped-accessible and offers free parking. Additional free parking is also available next door at the Riverfront Museum Park, 711 N. Main Street, Rockford.

The Rockford Society provides additional information on lectures, events, trips, and archaeological topics on the web at www.rockfordaia.org.
