Session Abstract

Mark Leone's impact on historical archaeology cannot be overstated. From his rigorous intellectual engagement with Marxist critical theory in archaeology to sustaining his decades-long field school program Archaeology in Annapolis and on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, to his mentorship of students at the University of Maryland and other universities, Leone's legacy lies close to the heart of how so many of us practice as professionals. This forum invites you to remember him and how he influenced your path as an archaeologist. We welcome everything from engagements with his research and writing to personal anecdotes about him as a professor and fellow human being.
