What we're about
The Kolomoki Archaeological Society was established in 1962.
The Kolomoki Society, organized in Early Co. Ga., first met at individual's homes. As the crowd grew, the meeting was moved to Kolomoki Mounds State Park. The Society quickly grew into a South Georgia, South Alabama and Florida society and expanded from one show to several, a year hosted by members in each of the tri-states.
