Florida Archaeology Month focuses on Florida's rich cultural heritage and showcases the state's significant collections of archaeological artifacts.
The Florida Department of State's Bureau of Archaeological Research is entrusted with maintaining, preserving, and protecting more than 12,000 years of Florida heritage. Archaeological and historical resources on state-owned and state-controlled lands, including sovereignty-submerged lands, are the direct responsibility of the bureau.
State archaeologists carry out archaeological surveys and excavations throughout Florida, primarily on state-owned lands. They maintain records on historical resources that have been recorded and assist consultants and planners in protecting sites. The state's underwater archaeology program includes historic shipwrecks and pre-Columbian underwater sites, some of which are among the oldest human sites in the New World. The bureau also manages Mission San Luis, a 60-acre world-class archaeological site in Tallahassee featuring a full-time research program and a living history museum. It is the only reconstructed Spanish mission in the Southeast.
