Hidden history is man's passion
A story about Detroit-area historian and archeologist Charles Martinez, includes several references to Wayne State. Retired WSU professor Gordon Grosscup recalled that Martinez began showing up at university-run digs in the metro Detroit area in the mid-1960s. Steve Demeterk site manager for a Wayne State dig in the 1960s describes Martinez, who later became president of the Michigan Archeological Society, as "meticulous and unconventional." The article explains that government agencies would occasionally contract with institutions such as Wayne State to conduct archaeological studies of government property.
