We have used the pottery from the site to assign it to the...
Archaeological Reconnaissance in the Upper Brazos River Basin (1973)
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is studying the feasibility of controlling the natural salt pollution of the Brazos River and its tributaries. A plan to establish control of the major sources of salt pollution in the Upper Brazos River has been formulated. The plan calls for the construction of three total impoundment dams and interconnecting pipelines. Construction of the impoundments will prevent salt pollution from spreading throughout the entire length of the Brazos River and would allow...

This investigation had a final report and copies of the artifact catalog and field notes. The U.S....
Archaeological Research at Proposed Cooper Lake, Northeast Texas 1974-1975 (1977)
Testing at four and excavation of two prehistoric sites has revealed new information about the aboriginal settlement of the South Sulphur River Basin. Sites located in and immediately adjacent to the river floowplain have been shown to be functionally similar. Extensive excavation of the Arnold Site and the Ranger Site has revealed that larger artifact samples bear out the same functional attributes as shown through the limited testing of sites within the lake area. The collection of a large...

Archaeological Resources of the Cooper Reservoir, Texas (1971)
One hundred and five archaeological sites were located and recorded within the area of the proposed Cooper Reservoir, Texas. Sites occur in six topographic situations and are further divided into two time periods, the Archaic and Caddo. Analysis of lithic samples from each site is correlated with site distribution in an attempt to determine the location of specific maintenance activities. A research design is proposed for the salvaging of the archaeological resources of the reservoir area prior...
Archaeological Site Map, BPI_0277 (1985)
Archaeological site map of the Ballast House at Blossom Point.
Archaeological Site Survey, Basic Data Report, BPI_0075, N.D. (2018)
This site is located on the north bank of the Potomac River, one mile east of Upper Cedar Point, and two miles east of the mouth of Nanjemoy Creek. It runs along the coast for half a mile and extends inland for as much as 35 feet, though it usually is confined to a variable 10-20 foot wide strip. The shoreline in this locale apparently has stabilized such that the former wave cut cliff line has been revegetated.
