Great Interviews with Dr. Tom Hester, Elton Prewitt and Dr. Ashley Lemke.

May, 2022

Great interviews with Dr. Tom Hester, Elton Prewitt and Dr. Ashley Lemke, about their various roles at the Gault site over the years. Ashley was conducting a field school with her students from the University of Texas at Arlington on a beautiful ranch along the Blanco River near San Marcos.

Legendary Texas archaeologist Dr. Tom Hester making a point (pun intended.) Dr. Hester shared his memories of his knowledge about the Gault site in the 80s and early 90s and working with Mike for decades.
Elton Prewitt, another iconic character in Texas archeology, shared his studies of the J.E. Pearce Collection from Gault back in the 1930s and other fun stories of working alongside Mike on projects throughout Texas.
Dr. Ashley Lemke, a rising star in the field of underwater archaeology and published author about the engraved stones at Gault, credits Dr. Mike Collins with changing her life and the trajectory of her career. Thanks to owners of the Way Ranch for allowing us to film Ashley and her field school students from the University of Texas at Arlington on your gorgeous property.
