Abstract

The article discusses the Bulow Plantation Ruins in Florida, once the largest sugar plantation in eastern Florida from 1821 to 1835. Archaeologists have uncovered a more complex and horrific history of the site, revealing the brutal treatment of enslaved Africans by the plantation owner, John Bulow. Excavations have unearthed artifacts of enslaved life, showcasing the unique experiences of those who lived and worked at the plantation. The site now serves as an important location for scholars studying the archaeology of enslavement, shedding light on a dark chapter in American history. [Extracted from the article]
