Every summer in Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ there is the threat of wildfires throughout the state. This year Mount Spur is also threatening to send volcanic ash into the air.
Archaeology may conjure images of fantastic treasures, but most artifacts uncovered by archaeologists are more mundane. This is the case with a series of artifacts uncovered this year during the UAA archaeological field school at the Carpenter Site — three tin cans.
In April, a deceased snake was discovered in a hay bale that had been shipped from Washington state to Southcentral Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ. The remains of the snake were sent to UAA’s McLaughlin Lab for analysis.
