In 2012, the PBS show "Time Team America" tracked the adventures of Georgia Southern University archeologists and students at Camp Lawton, a Civil War POW camp in Millen, as they uncovered buried secrets using the latest technology and decades of expertise. The episode will premiere tonight at 9 on PBS. Host Justine Shapiro and a television crew from Oregon spent one week following the students' trowels as they dug, scraped and sifted through centuries of soil to recover precious clues to the past. The show was filmed at Magnolia Springs State Park in Millen.
