*Excavations of the Public Baths of Carsulae (2nd century BCE)*

June 13- July 24, 2010

This is the fifth season of excavations at the Public Baths of the 
ancient city of Carsuale. The Umbrian city, founded along the via 
Flaminia in the late third century BCE, is located near the town of San 
Gemini. This area has been associated with healing waters since 
pre-Roman times. Work includes: field excavation, documentation of the 
site and of the archaeological artifacts collected.

The excavation is a project of Valdosta State University with the 
collaboration of the San Gemini Preservation Studies, and is directed by 
Prof. Jane Whitehead.

It is possible to attend both programs.

If you know any students, scholars or others interested in this type of 
study, please inform them about our program. We would appreciate it if 
you could list our program on your organization's website as an 
available educational resource.

Thank you very much. Cordially,
