Aug. 18, 2010 - Millen, GEORGIA, U.S. - Civil war reenactors play the parts of guards and prisoners during the announcement of the newly discovered Camp Lawton, a short-lived Confederate Civil War prison camp to house captured Union soldiers on 18 August 2010, outside of Millen, Georgia, USA. Archaeologists from Georgia Southern University and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service have discovered the actual site of the Camp Lawton and continue to excavate artifacts from the area. The 42-acre stockade housed some 10, 000 Union POWs for about six weeks. Officials are calling the discovery the significant Civil War find in decades. (Credit Image: © Erik Lesser/ZUMApress.com)
