Midlands Chapter

Join the Midlands Chapter of the ASSC! 


The Midlands Chapter of the ASSC serves Lexington, Richland, and neighboring counties in the Midlands Region of South Carolina. Our mission is to educate, promote, and protect the archaeological and historic heritage of South Carolina and beyond. Anyone with an interest in prehistory and history is encouraged to join!

If you're not a current ASSC member, the dues include membership to our parent organization, the Archaeological Society of South Carolina (ASSC). You'll receive the monthly Midlands Archaeology Newsletter, the quarterly ASSC Newsletter, Features and Profiles, the annual journal, South Carolina Antiquities, and opportunities to participate in ASSC events such as the annual S.C. Archaeology Conference and Banquet in February and the Archaeology Discovery Day festival in October.
