The MAC
Lab serves as a clearinghouse for archaeological collections recovered
from land-based and underwater projects conducted by state and federal
agencies throughout Maryland. The MAC Lab also houses a number of
major collections acquired through private donation to the Maryland
Historical Trust. All of these collections are available for research,
education, and exhibit purposes to students, scholars, museum curators,
and educators. |
