The Spring Street Archaeology Project is a multi-disciplinary research project headquartered in the bioarchaeology laboratory at Syracuse University in Syracuse, New York. We are a group of faculty, students, and external researchers investigating the skeletal and artifact remains recovered from the Spring Street Presbyterian Church burial vault site in New York City during the winter of 2006-2007. Our goal is to understand what life was like in New York City during the early 19th century.
