In Florida's Palm Beach County, archaeologists (考古学家) are planning how best to protect and preserve the ancient sites most at risk from rising seas.One of the sites is at a county park in Boca Raton where the playground and the public beach are the main attractions.It is one of the oldest settlements in America，but most visitors are unaware of that.

Working with her students from Lynn University，archaeologist April Watson excavated (发掘) sections of this ancient settlement.She and her students dated and analyzed the artifacts.It was the first time in nearly a half century that archaeologists had worked there.But as sea­level rise increases，Watson says there's a new necessity to study sites that at some point will be underwater.

About 50 miles north on Florida's Atlantic coast, the Jupiter Lighthouse sits atop another

Native American settlement.“It's been occupied for 6，000 years, which is pretty cool, continuous occupation，” Sara Rigsby­Ayers, with the Florida Public Archaeology Network, says.The shoreline here is eroding (腐蚀) quickly, in some areas up to seven feet a year.Rigsby­Ayers says the rising sea level due to storms and boat wakes is also washing away bits of Florida's history.

In Palm Beach County alone, Sara Rigsby­Ayers says more than 200 archaeological sites will be damaged by a three­foot rise in sea level that's expected by the end of the century.Rigsby­Ayers says，“Preserving all of them just isn't possible.That means full archaeological examinations where possible, and more limited measures in other cases.”

Protecting historic and archaeological sites from sea­level rise is going on in some countries.In the US, archaeologists are raising alarms about easily­attacked coastal sites from Louisiana to Virginia.But particularly in Florida, Lynn University archaeologist April Watson says there are more than 16，000 sites at risk of being lost.
