Abstract:

Alamance Battleground Research Project focused on compiling new archaeological data and reviewing historic documents to elucidate the events of May 16, 1771. On that date Regulators met the state's militia in the cumulative battle of the War of Regulation, which ended in defeat of the uprising farmers. The project drew on help from professionals and over two hundred volunteers.
