ROI011, A Review and Update of Archaeological Records for Blackford, Jay, Randolph, and Henry Counties, Indiana

Summary

This project is the third review and update of the archaeological records housed at the Archaeological Laboratory, Ball State University that has been accomplished. Those records pertinent to Blackford, Henry, Jay, and Randolph counties, Indiana (Figure l), have been the focus of the 1981-1982 project and have been reviewed for accuracy, consistency, and completeness of data. Past projects have reviewed and updated records for Delaware, Madison, Hamilton, Howard, Allen, Huntington, Wabash, and Grant counties. These projects have allowed the establishment of an updated records system for use in planning and development projects as well as providing a data base from which settlement pattern analysis and predictive modeling can be carried out. The primary concern of this report is to document the work carried out. The first section of the report will discuss the archaeological files maintained at the Archaeological Laboratory, Ball State University, and describe the procedures used in their review and update. More specific data has been attached as appendices. The four counties involved in this project, and the majority of the counties involved in the previous projects, lie within an area often referred to as east central Indiana. The second section of the report will briefly discuss east central Indiana as an area distinct from surrounding areas and review its cultural history.
