Brandon Hulette, Vanderbilt professor and a member of the Battle of Nashville Trust Board, spoke to the Nashville History Club on Oct. 29, 2024, on the subject of his high-tech ground-penetrating exploration below the surface of Fort Negley Park and his findings to date. The presentation includes his explanation and review of the “Nashville Storymap” project, which is described and featured above on this page. As technology advances, historians like Hulette are finding new ways to look back at the past by, among other things, looking below the surface of the ground to find clues of locations and even events that occurred at the time of the Civil War, and beyond.
