Part of: Fort A.P. Hill, Caroline County, Virginia

The Fort A.P. Hill Cultural Resource Manager, under the Environmental Division of the Directorate of Public Works within Fort A.P. Hill, Virginia, completed Phase I archaeological survey in association with proposed forestry activities in 27 forestry blocks located in Training Areas 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 13, 14, 20, 26, and 28, Fort A.P. Hill, Caroline County, Virginia. The proposed forestry activities included one pine selection cut (Block S), four pine shelterwood cuts (Blocks H, T, 26A06PW, and 28A06PW), thirteen pine thinnings (Blocks I, AI, 07B06TH, 07C06TH, 07D06TH, 07F06TH, 08A06TH, 08B06TH, 08C06TH, 08D06TH, 08E06TH, 08G06TH, and 09D06TH), and nine prescribed burns (Burns 02-A, 04-A, 06-E, 06-F, 06-G, 13-A, 13-B, 13-C, and 20-A). The Project Area consists of approximately 266.4 hectares (658.2acres) of forestland.

The objective of the archaeological survey was to identify any historic properties that may be located within the proposed forestry blocks and evaluate the potential eligibility of any such resources for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. Seven archaeological sites (44CE0294, 44CE0295, 44CE0524, 44CE0525, 44CE0526, 44CE0527, and 44CE0528) and two isolated artifact locations (IA-0702 and IA-0703) were identified during the survey. The artifact locations are not eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places.

This collection contains the Semi-Annual Technical Report, January 2008, Fort A.P. Hill (AP2012.001) project, which includes a report, artifact inventory, photo log, and photographs.
