Hunter Research operates one of best known and most skilled archaeological teams in the New York/Philadelphia area. We investigate Native American and historical period sites of all periods, shapes and sizes. We maintain a strong specialty in the archaeological study of Revolutionary War era sites, mills, pottery manufacturing sites, canals, farmhouses and every type of urban resource.

The firm routinely conducts all standard archaeological tasks. Chief among these are collections research, field surveys, large-scale data recovery excavations, monitoring during construction, artifact identification and analysis, and reporting at both the technical and popular level. Our staff undertakes both traditional manual archaeological excavations and projects where mechanically assisted digging is necessary.
