Jason Burns, deputy state archaeologist-underwater for the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, will explore the history of one of the Confederate's most famous blockade-runners Saturday at Fort McAllister.

Those remains include the blockade-runner CSS Nashville.
Learn about her crew, missions and her destruction. The program begins at noon at the fort's museum. Admission is $4 for adults and $2.50 for children.
