This is a 1936 article talks about the number of artifacts that are housed in American (US) museums and the overwhelming number that are in private collection. One of the arguments is that the archaeological exploration of the area has little to do with learning about culture and had more (if not entirely) to do with the gold in the area. Evidence of that can be seen in the name that the area became known as "Castilla del Oro." The unfortunate thing is that literature, especially academic...

All too often, archaeological studies of the Contact Period, as it occurred in the Chesapeake Bay region, have focused on the European impact on Native American life. The opposite side of this interaction—the effects Indians had on colonial life—has been downplayed. Indian-made artifacts found on colonial sites are often seen as little more than indicators of “trade.” However, a closer examination of the evidence suggests that the Native impact on English settlers was more profound. Using data...

The primary focus of the project was on the discovery and appropriate treatment of historic properties potentially affected by the dormitory construction. The archaeological inventory survey of the proposed site for dormitory construction yielded secondary deposits of modern cultural material in trenches 1-5. The pattern of the secondary deposits in the trenches indicates that they represent formerly deep swales that ran parallel to the modern beach. Artifactual material indicates that the...

This collection is referred to as "Archaeological Investigation of Fort Norfolk (44NR1) 1977.” This name is consistent throughout the finding aid, the file folders, and the box labels. The extent of this collection is a quarter (0.25) linear inch. The documents date from 1977 to 1979. The investigation primarily occurred in 1977, which explains the date in the project name. The range of dates includes additional archaeological catalogs dating to 1979. The majority of the documents were...

Archeological testing was conducted at Cuyahoga Valley National Recreation Area in November 1983 in conjunction with a proposed sewage leachfield near park headquarters. A multicomponent Archaic to Late Woodland archeological site (33Cu65) was located in the proposed construction area. Despite disturbance from recent historic land use practices, the site exhibits considerable contextural integrity. Subsurface testing exposed 10 distinct prehistoric features and an extensive midden deposit....
