This is the eighth in a series of reports presented to provide a resume of current archeological work within the Missouri River Basin. During the summer of 1963 there were twenty-one field parties, representing one Federal and six State agencies, working in the Missouri Basin under the aegis of the Inter-Agency Archeological Salvage Program. A further breakdown shows that the Missouri Basin Project of the Smithsonian Institution, had twelve field parties working in reservoirs and proposed canal...

Between June 5 and 15, 2007, the Yarborough Open Site #4, 3NW303, at the Steel Creek Horse Camp located within the Buffalo National River in Newton County, Arkansas, was investigated with archeological prospection techniques including archeo-geophysics and geoarcheology. The archeo-geophysical techniques included a magnetic survey, a vertical electrical (resistivity) sounding, and a magnetic susceptibility profile in order to evaluate the eastern portion of the site for potential campground...

The continuation of a Class I archeological reconnaissance survey was conducted on three isolated parcels included in land additions for an assault runway to the east side of the Altus Air Force Base, Jackson County, Oklahoma. A total of 222.48 acres were surveyed between December 1 and December 3, 1991. The initial land addition survey was conducted in 1989. Four historic sites were located during this survey. All of these resources have been subjected to disturbances which have severely...

This project was undertaken to provide a partial inventory and assessment of cultural resources in the Grand Canyon Adjacent Lands study area. This area, illustrated in Figure 1, includes portions of Kanab, Whitmore, Parashant, and Andrus Canyons and a part of the Shivwits Plateau, all located in the part of northwest Arizona known as the Arizona Strip. The study area was divided into western (Shivwits) and eastern (Kanab) survey areas. Archeological survey was carried out in June and July 1977...

The reconnaissance level survey of Seguin Auxiliary Airfield, Guadalupe County, Texas, was conducted on May 18-19, 1993, in order to assess areas with a high potential for intact archeological sites. Nine hundred sixty-one acres were surveyed within the boundary of the base. One historic archeological site (41GU32), a homestead dating to the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries was identified as well as a historic isolated find consisting of a bottle glass base (41GU33) and prehistoric...

This document is a manuscript prepared by the Smithsonian Institution for a special article in the Quarterly Progress Report, published by the Missouri Basin Field Committee. Giving an overview of the mission and goals of the Missouri Basin Project through the Inter-Agency Archeological Salvage Program, this article addresses the vital importance of historic site recovery and excavation. These sites produce evidence of historic contact between settlers, explorers and native groups unrecorded in...

This site consists of a two-story brick structure built c. 1800-1820. It is of rather simple Federal styling, with corbeled eave cornices, flush end chimneys, and a three-bay facade. At one end of the house there is a one-story frame wing that incorporates an early (probably original) and formerly detached kitchen. Although altered in recent years, it retains its large, exterior end chimney. The house stands on property owned by the Society of Jesus from 1649 to 1980, and was possibly built as a...

This site consists of a light scatter of prehistoric and historic materials. Prehistoric artifacts included four ceramic fragments (three of which were badly burned), one quartzite flake, five fire-cracked rock, one quartz shatter, one quartzite shatter, and three oyster shells. Historic artifacts included one forged nail, five brick fragments, and one staple. Oyster shell was also observed along the bank to the southwest of the mapped site boundary.

Evidence of extensive oyster shell was observed along the south bank cliff. Prehistoric materials included three firecracked rocks and four quartz flakes. Historic artifacts included one tin-glazed earthenware fragment, one rosehead wrought nail, and one 12-gauge shotgun shell base. Testing of the northeast boundary was limited by disturbance caused by earthmoving activities. The site is separated from 18CH480 by an area of disturbance (a borrow pit) to the southwest of the site.

This shell midden consists of approximately 8 acres. Four stps placed within this area recorded depths between 20 and 30cmbs. A rhyolite flake was found in one of the stps within the midden area. A small quantity of oyster shell was recovered in three stps along the cliff. Prehistoric material distribution (including one non-diagnostic ceramic sherd) was thinly scattered throughout most sections of the test area, which extended some 400m further southwest from the oyster shell...

Originally mapped by Judge Graham and later documented by Wilke and Thompson, this oyster shell midden is being actively eroded by waves on Nanjemoy Creek. The midden surface has also been highly disturbed by disking and blading. Numerous piles of surplus or discarded test equipment are being stored on the midden. Radiocarbon dated at 2220 +/- 50 BP, this site is attributed to the Middle Woodland period. Supporting this cultural association is the presence of Mockley ceramics (three sherds). The...

Wilke and Thompson noted a shell midden with Popes Creek pottery. Geo-Recon found numerous water rolled quartzite flakes and chunks on the beach below the eroding cliff line. A hammerstone and quartzite stemmed projectile point were also observed. The source of these secondary deposits is likely the adjacent cliff though whether the majority of the artifacts are coming from the shell associated occupation or perhaps a subshell occupation is unknown at this time. No diagnostic artifacts were...

This historic site consists of the bulldozed remains of a house and well site as well as a broad scatter of artifacts along an adjacent hillslope. The hillside dump which laps down into an adjoining marsh contains molded glass bottles and jars, wide mouth canning jars, assorted other glass bottles, and a shoe. A concentration of early 20th century bottles lies at the north end of this debris scatter. Ceramics include 1 piece of a stoneware container and 4 pieces of a white porcelain plate with 2...

This shell midden was originally recorded by Wilke and Thompson. The site covers approximately 4 acres and consists of scattered to dense whole valves of C. Virginica. The periphery of the site has been disturbed by an access road and bulldozing activities. The deposit varies in thickness but was revealed by probing to be at least 15" deep. A complete surface inspection of the site revealed numerous flakes and chunks of quartz and quartzite as well as several sherds of Potomac Creek ceramics....
