Research Design For An Archaeological Characterization Study On Portions of Belted Range and Kawich Valley (Range 74) Nevada Test and Training Range (2009)
An ongoing task of cultural resource inventories on the NTTR is the characterization of various numbered ranges and/or environmental regions as archaeological landscapes. How to characterize an archaeological region is an intentionally vague and open-ended question. This engenders a variety of research approaches that in turn generate data on a range of topics relevant to the study of prehistory and ethnography in the southern Great Basin and northern Mojave Desert.
