Lawrence E. Babits (born June 22, 1943) is an American archaeologist with specific interests in military history, material culture, and battlefield and maritime archaeology.

This is illustrated in his books ''Long, Obstinate and Bloody: The Battle of Guilford Courthouse'' (coauthored with Joshua B. Howard) and ''A Devil of a Whipping: The Battle of Cowpens''. Babits is currently a George Washington Distinguished Professor of Maritime Archaeology and History at East Carolina University.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ecu.edu/cs-cas/history/Babits.cfm )
==Biography==

Babits was born in Blytheville, Arkansas on June 22, 1943. He graduated from Surrattsville High School in Clinton, Maryland in 1961. During his youth he was a member of the Boy Scouts and in his junior year of high school became an Eagle Scout. The year he graduated from high school, Babits worked as a carpenter’s apprentice in Washington, D.C.. In 1963 he joined the United States Army where he served for three years as an infantryman. Babits left the Army at the rank of Sergeant and with an honorable discharge in 1966. From there he went to the University of Maryland, College Park to receive his Bachelor of Arts in anthropology with a minor in history in 1969. From then until 1973, Babits worked for the university as a teaching assistant and continued to work to receive his Master's degree in 1974 from Maryland. Babits began working as an archaeologist for the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources in Raleigh, North Carolina and later became a teaching fellow in archaeology field methods. To further his education, Babits went to Brown University to work as a teaching assistant and eventually teach his own courses through the Sociology and Anthropology departments at Washington and Lee University from 1980 to 1981. Babits earned his Doctor of Philosophy in 1981 from Brown and his dissertation was entitled ''Military Documents and Archaeological Site: Methodological Contributions to Historical Archaeology''. That same year he was inducted into Phi Alpha Theta, an honor society for history scholars. Between 1971 and 1985 he also wrote sports articles in his spare time for various newspapers. With his Ph.D., Babits continued to teach as an assistant professor of history and archaeology at Armstrong State College in Georgia. From there Babits went to East Carolina University, where he currently resides as director of the Maritime History and Nautical Archaeology program in Greenville, North Carolina. Some of the classes he teaches include Battlefield Archaeology, Revolutionary War in the South, Living History, 18th Century Warfare, History and Theory of Nautical Archaeology, American Maritime Material Culture, Field Research in Maritime History, and Seafaring.〔
In 1996 he served as a guest faculty coach for the ECU softball team. Throughout the years Babits has published a number of works including the book, ''A Devil of a Whipping: The Battle of Cowpens'' which describes the Battle of Cowpens that took place during the American Revolutionary War. It was won by the Americans on January 17, 1781 in Cowpens, South Carolina through the use of original tactical maneuvers. Babits gives estimations of troop numbers for both sides and details the events of the battle. The book was the winner of a Distinguished Book Award in 1998 from the Army Historical Foundation as well as the honorable mention book award from the Fraunces Tavern Museum/Sons of the Revolution. Babits’ most recent book is entitled ''Long, Obstinate and Bloody: The Battle of Guilford Courthouse''. During the 1980s, Babits served as director for the Coastal Heritage Society and the Center for Low Country Studies and served as the acting director of the Museum and Preservation Studies Program at Armstrong State College.
Babits is married with one child. In his free time away from academics he has enjoyed playing, coaching, and refereeing rugby since his early twenties.
