Note: Not Roswell Archaeologists to discuss Rosewell excavations
Some of Virginia's most prominent archaeologists will gather at the Rosewell Mansion Visitor Center on Thursday to discuss more than 50 years of excavations at the site of the historic 18th-century structure.

The panel includes Ivor Noel Hume, the pioneering Colonial Williamsburg scientist who conducted the first digs at Rosewell during the 1950s, and Nicholas Luccketti, co-discoverer of the lost site of the first permanent English settlement at Jamestown, who explored the remains of a 17th-century house found under the mansion's ruins.
