A Magnetometer Survey South of Cape Canaveral, Florida North Three Square Nautical Miles of Area E-155 Part I or II (2013)
This report presents the results of a magnetometer survey for the northern three square nautical miles of Area E-155, South of Cape Canaveral, FL for the purpose of detecting magnetic anomalies. The purpose of this report is to identify targets that could potentially be of archaeological interest. The targets were Identified by the total gamma range they produced, the duration in seconds they influenced the magnetometer, and the distance in feet of that influence.

Mitchell Springs Ruin Group
The Mitchell Springs Ruin Group is located just south of Cortez Colorado in the heart of Montezuma Valley. This community was occupied from Basketmaker times through around A.D. 1240 and is made up of around 75 small pueblos, small great houses, a great kiva, 10+ meter diameter court kiva, and a tri-wall structure. Field schools conducted from 1990-2004 resulted in two publications.
