In June–July 2005, a systematic archeological pedestrian survey and limited Phase-I subsurface testing was conducted at Salt River Bay National Historical Park and Ecological Preserve (SARI) by the Southeast Archeological Center’s (SEAC) Regionwide Archeological Survey Program (RASP). The purpose of this survey was to provide a Phase I-level inventory of archeological resources at SARI, and evaluate potential impacts at several proposed locations for the placement of a marine research and...

In conjunction with the restoration and adaptive reuse of the Harriet Dean House, one of several historic structures within Lincoln Home National Historic Site, the Midwest Archeological Center carried out limited archeological testing on the house lot associated with that former dwelling. Those investigations were designed to examine areas that might be impacted by the restoration effort and to provide information that might also contribute to historical accuracy of the restoration plan. In...

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...

Minute Man National Historical Park (MIMA) is located about 12 miles (19.2 km) west of Boston in the towns of Concord, Lincoln, and Lexington, Massachusetts (Figures 1-1, 1-2). The park consists of about 750 acres and is divided into three separate parcels. The North Bridge parcel is located just north of the center of Concord along the Concord River, the Wayside parcel is a small area along Lexington Road east of Concord center and the remainder of the park extends for four miles from Meriam's...

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...

Archeological testing and mitigation was performed for two projects at Fort Larned National Historic Site. The first project consisted of relocating a buried air conditioner refrigerant line that passed through the 1860 adobe Commissary Storehouse and Enlistedmens' Barracks (HSll) and near a feature (Feature 17) previously identified by Earl Monger as a possible privy pit. 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...

Archeological testing and mitigation was performed on the Old Commissary, HS 5, at Fort Lamed National Historic Site in partial compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act as amended. The structure, built in 1866 and the oldest original structure at the fort, requires extensive foundation and stabilization work to preserve its condition (Figure I). Archeological field work was carried out between July 11 and 17 by Douglas Scott, Melissa Baier, and Thomas Thiessen. Fort...

The Cemochechobee Archeological District consists of a series of archeological exposures identified over a number of years by various institutions. The district has never been comprehensively surveyed. It is bounded on the north and northwest by the Walter F. George Lock and Dam, on the west by the Chattahoochee River (technically the uppermost end of the George W. Andrews Lake), on the south and east by Cemochechobee Creek, and on the northeast by a low rise bordering the alluvial river...

The primary purpose of these informal reports is to outline the current work in the Missouri Basin and discuss some of the general problems involved. Response to such reports in the past has been encouraging and helpful, even aiding in the settling of some future policies. We hope we will, with this report, continue to receive response and constructive criticisms that will assist in getting the most out of the Salvage Program. This is one of the most crucial periods in the entire Inter-Agency...

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...

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 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....
