"Peering Through the Sands of Time," utilizes the latest in digital publishing technology to bring the reader into the history of the Caddo and those who lived on the Kitchen Branch site in Camp County, Texas roughly 600 years ago. With an attractive visual layout, interactive images and slideshows, and three dimensional models (on the iBooks version), AmaTerra hopes this will provide new opportunities for the public to learn about archaeology and the important aspects of everyone's collective heritage that are studied on these publicly-funded projects.
