As a sophomore in 2010, Chelsea Gross ’13 participated in a dig of Joshua Chamberlain’s Maine Street house with her archaeology class. The excavation, led by Professor of Anthropology Scott MacEachern, unearthed about 7,000 artifacts — far more than expected — and the findings inspired Gross to do more research and write an honors project on the untold stories of the Chamberlain household.
