PROJECT Gregory Waselkov.

Structure 32 at the Old Mobile site (1MB94) was excavated intermittently between 1996 and 2003, with the entire building plan finally exposed and excavated in 2007.

The first construction phase consisted...

Archaeological excavations since 1989 have uncovered buried evidence of the earliest French colonial settlements on the northern Gulf coast. Patient scientific study is revealing the original townsite of Mobile, first capital of the Louisiane colony, and remnants of the colony's port on Dauphin Island. This is the story of archaeologists piecing together a fascinating but little-known chapter of America's early history.

Local tradition has long associated the area of Twenty-seven Mile Bluff on the Mobile River with the early French colonial settlement of Old Mobile. But archaeological research on this important historical site is quite recent. A series of newsletters was distributed between 1989 to 1998 to convey to the public the results of archaeological research at Old Mobile by the University of South Alabama.

The goal of the present study is to identify the provenance of ceramics recovered from project area sites in the lower Verde River on the basis of the temper found within them (Ciolek-Torrello et al. 1992:111-75 to III-85). The focus of this study is on sand temper. Ceramic wares and/or types produced within the study area are distinguished from those imported from other areas. A reconnaissance sample of wash sands from the lower Verde River area was collected and analyzed to provide the...
