Summary
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.
In 2018, Coastal Environments, Inc., (CEI) conducted a targeted cultural resources survey in the Lake Erie waters of Ashtabula County, Ohio, a study area covering ca. 30 square miles of lake bottom. The project’s first phase consisted of a geophysical survey at selected locations within the study area. The second phase involved the selection of ten anomalies for ground truthing, including several high-probability locations for drowned terrestrial sites. This paper discusses the methodology utilized in selecting survey locations, reviews the findings of the investigation, and offers a brief history of several of the identified shipwrecks.
