This is the tDAR Project page that represents Reports of Investigation 005 from the Applied Anthropology Laboratories, Ball State University. With a few exceptions, the archaeology of the northern two-thirds of the state of Indiana has been ignored or poorly reported. Most of the work that has been carried out in the northern and central portions of the state has been directed toward the more sensational sites, such as mounds and earthworks. However, many more typical sites have been reported...

ROI008, An Archaeological Survey of the Newport Army Ammunition Plant, Vermillion County, Indiana: Predicting the Archaeological Potential of an Upland Forest-Prairie Edge in West Central Indiana (1982)
A survey of the Newport Army Ammunition Plant, utilizing a 10.8 percent stratified sample, revealed 144 sites for the plant property and predicted between 1200 and 1500 others. Of the 144 sites found, only ten appeared to have any potential for meeting National Register criteria for significance. Prior to the survey, a predictive model of land use representing activities potentially carried out by aboriginal inhabitants of the area was devised, taking into consideration previous studies in...
