Theatrical Devices
Cavallo/Diggers
Guerilla Theater

Other Accounts, Histories and Various Renderings of Sixties Chronicles

There have been several students over the years who've made their way to the Digger Collection and written accounts based on access to the primary source materials. This section of the Digger Archive will serve to collect and post the results of those who stumbled across the Diggers and have written their interpretations and researches.

So far, we have:
