The Anthropological Studies Center (ASC) will conduct investigations and create an interpretive element of a Gold Rush-era mine camp named Jamison City located within Plumas-Eureka State Park, Plumas County. Studies will include archival research and archaeological field survey to document the vestiges of the site. The interpretive component will weave together the findings into a presentation using unspecified media. A brief movie or other digital production to enhance the museum is anticipated to tell the colorful story of the rough and tumble Jamison City.
