Class III Cultural Resources Reconnaissance of a Drill Pad and Skid Trail for Drill hole U20AM

Part of the Nellis Air Force Base (DRAFT) project

Author(s): Lonnie C. Pippin; Ronald L. Reno

Year: 1982

Summary

A preconstruction survey conducted at Drill Pad U20ab disclosed a large lithic scatter (26Ny9S2) adjacent to that pad. Concomitantly, the reconnaissance of a 1 km square sample unite (A2a-140), located approximately 2 km from the proposed U20am Drill Pad, disclosed four archaeological sites (26Ny1912, 26Ny1914, 26Ny1918 and 26Ny1919) that may reflect the remains of pinyon nut caches; five separate concentrations of lithic artifacts (26Ny1913, 26Ny1915, 26Ny1916, 26Ny1917 and 26Ny1920) and several isolated artifacts. The results of these cultural resource surveys, however, have never been reported due to a lack of funds.
