At the request of SRP, LSD completed a Class III cultural resources survey of 3.5 miles of fence line on the Salado Preserve south of St. Johns, Arizona. The survey resulted in the recording of three previously unrecorded sites, LSD-11, LSD-12, and LSD-13 and a total of 12 isolated occurrences (lOs). The locational data for 7 of the lOs was inadvertently lost. However, lOs are not eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and require no further investigation or...

The Sapelo Shell Ring complex, located on Sapelo Island, Georgia, consists of three large circular shell mounds and numerous smaller amorphous shell middens. Today, one of the rings is highly visible; however, the two other rings and the nonring middens have little surface relief and are virtually invisible. In fact, the location and very existence of the two other rings has been debated for some time. Recent geophysical survey, however, has located the subsurface re­mains of the two...

High Point presents and intriguing archaeological challenge. Although it is documented as a location for one of the earliest historic occupations on the Island, only the (presumably) postbellum features have been recorded there. In an effort to obtain a clearer picture of the entire history of the site, the Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and Geography at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC) proposes to conduct a modified systematic survey at High Point of screened half-meter...
