In the re‐housing process of each investigative effort of the USACE, Huntington District collection, the same standard procedures and Archaeological Collections Facility, Grave Creek Mound Historic Site guidelines were followed. Upon completion of the curation management project, the collection was sent to Archaeological Collections Facility, Grave Creek Mound Historic Site for permanent curation.
