Archaeological Survey of Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska: Final Report

Author(s): Charles E. Holmes; J. David McMahan

Year: 1996

Summary

During the Fall of 1994 and Spring of 1995, the Office of History and Archaeology (OHA), Alaska Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation, conducted a cultural resources reconnaissance of Elmendorf Air Force Base (EAFB), which is adjacent to Anchorage, Alaska. The work, funded by the U.S. Air Force, was performed under a Cooperative Agreement (NPS No. CA 9700-4-9036) between OHA and the Alaska Regional Office of the U.S. National Park Service. In accordance with the National Park Service Scope of Work, OHA surveyed areas within Elmendorf Air Force Base that were judged most likely to yield archaeological remains. This was accomplished through the stratification of 13,000 acres on Elmendorf Air Force Base into areas of high, medium, and low probability for locating archaeological remains. This report details this survey.
