Archaeological and geological investigations at two sites along the upper Savannah River, Elbert County, Georgia, were presented. Large block excavations were undertaken at the Gregg Shoals site (9EB259) and the Clyde Gulley Site (9EB387), which resulted in documenting an occupation sequence spanning 10,000 years, from Early Archaic to Late Prehistoric. Further work identified activity areas within the Middle and Early Archaic zones. Research questions focused on assemblage characterization, raw...

This report presents the results of a cultural resources survey of three proposed borrow areas associated with the relocation of a portion of the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad (Map Reference R-3). One site was discovered within the project area. This site consists of a brick scatter which has been heavily impacted and is not recommended for further investigation. No other cultural resources were discovered on the remaining borrow areas and cultural clearance is advised for the entire project.

This report contains the results of the site testing program in the Richard B. Russell Reservoir, Savannah River, Georgia and South Carolina. The purpose of this program was to test a number of selected archeological sites below the 430 foot contour interval. This interval was chosen because all lands below that elevation are expected .to be flooded by late 1981. Sites which were selected were drawn from those reported in Taylor et al (1978). Archeologists from the Interagency Archeological...
