My Life in the Field, by Jane Whitehead

If you are enthralled by the pyramids, delighted to learn about new discoveries since you last visited Pompeii, and astonished by ancient Mayan astronomical observatories, you’ll be even more thrilled to learn that JANE WHITEHEAD ’66 PhD has conducted archeological digs.  She continues to keep that knowledge dust-free and ready for guests as publisher of Etruscan News. (Phyllis Knight sheepishly told her the title of the newsletter was very funny but she forgave Phyllis immediately by explaining that readers are initially drawn to the journal by its title). Jane lightened tax day by taking us on an archeological excavation so get out your khaki clothes and sun-shielding hats. 

The online issues of Etruscan News are in the process of being transferred to the UMass Amherst website. For more information, contact Jane at jwhitehe@valdosta.edu.
