History is hands-on at Historic St. Mary’s
City, a museum on the site of Maryland’s
first capitol building. Visitors can explore an
un-ordinary ordinary, help a planter tend his
fields, step on board a tall ship, and discover
the world of the Yaocomaco Indians. A new
exhibit opening in 2008 on the St. John’s
site offers insights into the ways researchers reconstruct the past using historical
and archaeological evidence, and examines
how Lord Baltimore’s design for Maryland
foreshadowed the First Amendment rights
guaranteed by our Constitution.
