Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB) Cultural Resource Archive - Documents, Images, and other Data

Part of: Air Force - West

Collection of documents, data, and images generated from and/or related to archaeological resource and Cultural Resource Management investigations, studies, and reports at the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The collection was created by tDAR under contract with the USAF and is intended to organize documents, images, and other data from Vandenberg AFB.

Some of the digital resources are organized under several sub-collections, which group together documents from particular investigations or related to certain sites or parts of the base. Other digital objects are included individually. Due to the potential sensitive information included in these documents, users that wish to access documents and images without redaction should contact the cultural resources office at the Vandenberg Space Force Base.

Note: Originally named Vandenberg Air Force Base, the base was renamed to Vandenberg Space Force Base after the creation of the Space Force in 2019. Depending on the date of the resource, it will determine what name is used to refer to the installation.

    DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: Jessica Kekich

    This document is the isolated find record for VAFB-ISO-948. The artifacts are two secondary Monterey chert flakes. A fragment of marine shell was also noted but given that it is a nonnative species (Chione sp.) and its proximity to the Sudden Ranch, it is unlikely that the marine shell is prehistoric.

    DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: Jessica Kekich

    This document is the isolated find record for VAFB-ISO-949. The artifacts are two Monterey chert flakes. One flake was discovered during a pedestrian survey in January of 2004. Subsurface testing was initiated in the immediate area surrounding the isolate in February 2004 to determine if additional cultural material was present. Six shovel test pits (STPs) were excavated around the original flake, one of which yielded an additional flake. The second flake was discovered less than 10 feet from...

    This document is the isolated find record for VAFB-ISO-950. The artifact is a projectile point midsection made from mottled brown and gray Monterey chert. The artifact was discovered just north of a model airplane field alongside a dirt track. One shovel test pit (STP) was excavated at the location where the artifact was found, and four more STPs were excavated around the artifact. None of the STPs yielded cultural materials.

    This document is the isolated find record for VAFB-ISO-951. The artifact is a primary chert flake measuring 7 cm by 6 cm by 4 cm and has cortex near platform. Less than five shell fragments (abalone & clam) were observed within 10 m of the flake. Antiquity of shell is uncertain but does not appear to be prehistoric.

    This document is the isolated find record for VAFB-ISO-953. The artifact are two Monterey chert flakes. Both artifacts appear to be early- or mid-stage biface reduction debris. One flake exhibits a small amount of cortex at the distal end. Vicinity appears to be relatively intact.

    DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: Jessica Kekich

    This document is the isolated find record for VAFB-ISO-956. The artifact is a Monterey chert flake. The artifact is a mid- to late-stage biface thinning flake. It was located within a heavily graveled ditch bank, and it is highly unlikely the flake is in its original context.
