Making history: Last-day discovery closes out dig
Tuesday, October 28, 2008 12:00 AM

The volunteers of the second meetinghouse dig pose for a photo on Saturday before filling in the holes created by the excavation. The dig found a host of artifacts as well as the foundation of Duxbury’s second meetinghouse.

The last two days of the historical dig on Chestnut Street unearthed a discovery of great historical significance. “Everything really came into focus,” said Craig Chartier of the Plymouth Archeology Rediscovery Project. “We couldn’t have hoped for more.”

The two-week dig had been a success right from the start, as volunteers excavated dozens of artifacts from Pilgrim and Native American times. They also found a stone foundation, proving the spot was the location of Duxbury’s second meetinghouse. (The first was located where Standish Cemetery is now, the third is where the First Parish Church is on Tremont Street.)

But it was on the last day of digging that the team really stumbled upon something special.

Diggers discovered a series of post holes, 20 inches in diameter, along the north wall of the foundation. This means the building was originally constructed by means of “post-in-hole construction.” This was the way buildings were built at Plimoth Plantation, and it was thought that the technique hadn’t been used since.

It will be all hands on deck during the Duxbury Rural and Historical Society's archeological dig at the Second Meetinghouse site this October, as volunteers from the community will assist in the digging, scraping and sorting of historic artifacts.

The society is sponsoring the project, which will involve excavating a patch of land on Chestnut Street by the Standish Cemetery that is believed to be the site of Duxbury's second meetinghouse. The dig will take place over two weeks from Oct. 6-18.
