Abstract: | Two New York City projects, one world renown, the other struggling for recognition, exemplify the various ways in which the
public defines its engagement with its archaeological past. At African Burial Ground in lower Manhattan and at Duffield Street
in Brooklyn, the public battled with local, state, and federal entities in an effort to preserve the resources. As different
as the sites are in context, scope and circumstances, public reactions and activism bind them together. |
