LAKE GEORGE, N.Y. (AP) - An archaeological project has returned to an
artifact-rich state park in the southern Adirondacks on what was the
focal point of the warring British and French empires more than 250
years ago.

A team of students and volunteers is trying to determine if a low
stone wall along the edge of Lake George Battlefield Park and another
structure being unearthed nearby were built during the French and
Indian War from 1754 to 1763, when thousands of British and Colonial
American troops were posted here while fighting raged along the
northern frontier separating Britain's New York province and
French-held Canada.
