The North Carolina Office of State Archaeology has changed the name and expanded focus for one of its five locations. The Queen Anne’s Revenge Conservation Lab in Greenville was established in 2003 to preserve artifacts from one of North Carolina’s most significant archaeological discoveries — the wreck of Blackbeard’s flagship Queen Anne’s Revenge, formerly the French slave ship, La Concorde. The facility has been renamed the Office of State Archaeology Conservation Lab (OSA Lab).
