New Method Sheds Light on Early Alabama Pottery Cultures
Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts curator Dave Chase reports eight distinct pottery making cultures in central Alabama identified through carbon 14 dating and related data. Findings link Cobb Swamp Culture in Elmore County to the Cartersville period in Georgia, dated to just before Christ, with Montgomery area pottery resembling a culture around 1000 A.D. University of Alabama researchers and Miller's Ferry Dam plans spur broader surveys of sites likely to be damaged, aiming to refine dates and spread knowledge of early hunters in the Alabama River valley.
