Since the establishment of Minute Man National Historical Park (MIMA) in 1959, archaeological research has been an important and valuable tool for providing information crucial to the interpretation of its cultural resources (Regional Director 1961). To this end, archaeological research has been conducted over the course of 23 years, beginning in the early 1960s (Synenki 1987). While this research has provided valuable information, not only did important interpretive questions remain, but it was...

The Fort Laramie Cavalry Barracks was constructed in 1874 and continuously occupied until the National Park Service began interpretation of its history. A restoration effort required mitigative excavations in the building's interior and along the west side. Over 5,000 artifacts were recovered that physically document the changing uses of the building through time. Several features were identified that relate to the use of the site since at least the early 1860s. The foundations of a structure...

Archeological investigations were undertaken in the spring of 1999 at the Summer Kitchen/Stone building and the Ice House at Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site. The excavations were undertaken as part of compliance activities to mitigate the effect of restoration work on the two historic buildings, and to gain information on their origin and function. The Summer Kitchen excavations yielded a wide variety of artifacts. Their distribution suggests that the kitchen's south room was a food...

The second project entailed testing in cellars located under the Officers Quarters (north cellar, HS7 and north and south...

In response to preliminary plans for restoration of the Charles E. Arnold House, the Midwest Archeological Center initiated field investigations within Lincoln Home National Historic Site in the summer of 1991. The excavation team sought specific information about the original position of the relocated structure, as well as more general information on associated cultural resources that might be present on the house lot. We found no unambiguous physical remains that would refine the restored...

Archival and archeological research was conducted in support of the planned rebuilding of Route 10, the tour road, from Last Stand Hill to the Reno–Benteen defense site parking lot at Little Bighorn Battle-field National Monument. Archival research in the National Archives and at the park provided back-ground information on the nature and extent of road construction by the U. S. Army in the mid-1930s that now constitutes the tour road right-of-way. Close-order metal detecting in a corridor 20...

Following the Civil War and Reconstruction Period, African-Americans struggled to find equal opportunity in the southern states. As a result of the Homestead Act of 1862 and continuing racial oppression, African-Americans began migrating westward during the late 19th and early 20th centuries in search of new economic and social opportunities. The “Exoduster” migration into Kansas and Nebraska caused a significant ethnic transformation that is still evident to the present day. This report...

This document focuses on the excavation of a backhoe trench (Figures 1 and 2) from July 22 through August 6, 1996 at Fort Scott National Historic Site (FOSC). The purpose of this trench was to allow subsurface installation of a IO-in waterline, the first step in the eventual installation of a fire suppression system in all FOSC buildings. Monitoring followed the construction crew's work schedule, which utilized a work week of four lO-hour days followed by a three-day weekend. Because of FOSC's...
