The McCary Award is given jointly by the Archeological
Society of Virginia and the Council of Virginia Archaeologists in recognition of the 'best student paper in
prehistoric archaeology' at the Annual Meeting of the ASV.
The award's namesake, Dr. Ben McCary, a Professor of Classics
at the College of William and Mary, was a leader in Virginia archaeology who played a major role in the founding and
development of the ASV. Originating the "Virginia Fluted Point Survey," Dr. McCary is best known for his work at the
Williamson PaleoIndian Site in Dinwiddie County.
