Summary
This is an abstract from the "Experimental Archaeology in Range Creek Canyon, Utah" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.
Through excavation methods the staff and students of the Range Creek Field Station looked to explore an indentation formation in a section of Range Creek known as the Cove. The hope was to uncover and explore the possibility of potential precontract irrigation systems. It is known that historic farmers would take advantage of preexisting irrigation ditches and then expand and use them for their own purpose. We sought to examine the indented feature with in the Cove to explore this possibility.
