Poplin, Chester B. DePratter, William R. Ramsey, Alex Sweeney, Jane G. Landers, Steven C. Hahn, Denise I. Bossy, Susan Parker, Amanda Hall, Andrea Paige White, and Carl D. Halbirt. The sessions will be chaired by: John E. Worth, Charles Cobb, Alan Gallay, and Gifford Waters. Registration is $25 through April 10 and is limited to the first 120 registrants.

Florida Anthropological Society 67th Annual Meeting: The Many Faces of Florida, Past and Present May 28-31, 2015 Sarasota, Florida Time Sifters Archaeology Society is pleased to be hosting the 67th Annual Meeting of the Florida Anthropological Society. The meeting will be held at the Hyatt Regecy Sarasota. Sarasota is a tourist mecca with one of the best beaches in the world; it is a place for everybody's enjoyment with world class botanical gardens, marine research center/aquarium, and art museum; a great theater selection, fishing, golf, an out-standing park system, and a very vibrant historic downtown with a huge selection of cafes and restaurants. The past environs were rich with aboriginal culture; the shoreline of the bay was lined with mounds and middens. The abundance of the marine environment later supported Cuban fishing ranchos, and early settlers were attracted by the area's natural beauty. We have a great weekend planned that will celebrate the past and the present of this great community and, of course, research from all over the state. We hope you will join us. A Preliminary schedule, registration forms and call for papers announcement are available. The abstract deadline has been extended to Friday, April 3, 2015.
