Abstract

Anne Reynolds, an educator, artist, avocational archaeologist, and award-winning author, passed away in 2017. She and her husband Charles were active members of the Florida Anthropological Society (FAS) and were dedicated to preserving and studying the Blueberry Site, a significant Native American site in Highlands County, Florida. Anne made significant contributions to education and Florida archaeology and received prestigious awards for her work. She was also involved in various organizations and served as a trustee of South Florida Community College. Anne's efforts in archaeology and preservation were highly regarded, and she was known for her hospitality and generosity. Dr. Butler's book, "Archaeology of South-Central Florida: Unearthing the 13th – 17th Centuries," includes a section on Belle Glade Plain pottery. The book compares pottery sherds from the Blueberry Site with those from Fort Center and Belle Glade, contributing to the understanding of Belle Glade Plain ceramics. The book is dedicated to the memory of Anne Reynolds, who was a dedicated advocate for public archaeology and played a significant role in the Florida archaeological community. The references cited in the article provide additional information on related topics and research. [Extracted from the article]
