Dive into Florida’s underwater history! Join us on July 14th for a talk from Dr Della Scott-Ireton from the Florida Public Archaeology Network, where she will be discussing historic wrecks around the state that are open for divers and snorkelers to discover up close.
A bit more about our speaker, Dr Della Scott-Ireton graduated from the University of West Florida with a Bachelor’s degree in Anthropology and a Master’s degree in Historical Archaeology. She also has a Master’s in International Relations from Troy University, and a Ph.D. in Anthropology from Florida State University. Della is certified as a Scuba Instructor with the National Association of Underwater Instructors (NAUI). She worked with the Pensacola Shipwreck Survey, West Florida Historic Preservation, Inc., Florida Bureau of Archaeological Research, and the government of the Cayman Islands before joining the Florida Public Archaeology Network where she serves as Associate Director. Della is a Registered Professional Archaeologist and member of the Florida Archaeological Council, and has served on the board of the Society for Historical Archaeology, the Advisory Council on Underwater Archaeology, and the Marine Protected Areas Federal Advisory Committee. Della’s research interests include public interpretation of maritime cultural heritage, both on land and under water, and training and engaging avocationals in archaeological methods and practices.
We’ll start gathering at Dave & Busters in Cary in their event space at 6:30 PM so you can eat, drink, and connect with fellow divers. You do not need to be a member to join us! We’ll kick off the meeting at 7:15 PM with announcements, then hear from our guest speaker. We hope to see you there in person!
