Summary

This document presents a Data Recovery Plan (DRP) for a portion of the prehistoric Lindesay Site (SUBi-1705, NYSM #10316), New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) PIN 5002.07.121 in the Town of Porter, Niagara County, New York (Figure 1). Included within this document is a description of the site, the prehistoric context of the region, and the research objectives for this Data Recovery. Also included is a proposed field and analysis strategy for the retrieval and interpretation of archaeological information from the site. The site was identified in 1996 during a cultural resource reconnaissance survey in advance of plans for proposed improvements to New York State Route 18F (NY 18F) and the addition of a pedestrian walkway (Hohman,et al. 1996; Kastl and Ravage 1998). Following the completion of the survey and review of the findings by the New York State Museum (NYSM) and NYSDOT, a site examination was performed on the Lindesay Site, a stratified prehistoric occupation with Early Woodland and Late Woodland components (Knapp 1996a). Based on these investigations the site was recommended as eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (Appendix 1). Given the eligibility determination of the Lindesay Site and the documentation of research potential, a Data Recovery Plan (DRP) was requested by the NYS Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPR&HP) and preparation of a DRP was authorized by the NYSDOT and NYSM.
