The Department of the Air Force (DAF) is charged by federal law and statutes to identify, evaluate, and protect important cultural and historical properties on DAF land for the benefit of this and future generations of Americans. In executing these mandates, DAF has produced several thousand professional quality monographs, reports, and studies that record valuable data and insights on our Nation’s history and prehistory, as reflected on our installations and ranges. The Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) has partnered with Digital Antiquity and Argonne National Laboratory to curate these resources in the Digital Archaeological Record (tDAR).
Since 2011, Digital Antiquity has worked with Air Force installations to establish a system for digitally curating DAF cultural resources documents and making those documents available to approved users. Installations have the ability to organize their file types in a way that is useful for their needs, while providing controlled levels of access to approved users.
This is the main collection for DAF. Here you can find collections of documents, data, images, and other digital information generated from and/or related to archaeological and other cultural resources and investigations on or nearby DAF facilities. The collection was created by the Center for Digital Antiquity in cooperation with US Air Force, US Space Force, and Air National Guard Cultural Resources Management personnel.

A Class III Cultural Resources Reconnaissance of a Proposed Fiber Optic System for Tolicha Peak, Nellis Air Force Range, Nye County, Nevada (1995)
DOCUMENT Full-Text
The investigation recorded 25 archaeological sites and 14 isolated artifacts. Eight of the sites are recommended to be considered eligible to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The routes of the fiber lines and facility locations would be changed to avoid each of these sites, or placed in already disturbed areas within the sites. In this manner potential adverse effects from construction activities to these historic properties would be avoided.
