Can I visit the archeological sites featured in Texas Beyond History?
A. That depends. Most land in Texas (96.7%) is privately owned and therefore so are most archeological sites. You must have the landowner’s permission to visit archeological sites on private land. Fortunately, some of the most interesting sites in Texas are on public land and can be visited at certain state and national parks. Keep in mind that there really isn’t much to see at most archeological sites unless excavations are underway. By joining the TBH partner organization Texas Archeological Society or one of the many regional and local societies and associations across the state, such as the TBH partner organization Southern Texas Archaeological Association, you too can participate in archeological investigations.
