ROI006, A Comprehensive Survey of the Archaeological Resources of Mounds State Park, Anderson, Indiana with A Proposed Resources Management Plan

Summary

This is the tDAR Project page that represents Reports of Investigation 006 from the Applied Anthropology Laboratories, Ball State University. In order to better provide for planning to conserve the archaeological resources of Mounds State Park, all available literature on the park was reviewed and an archaeological survey was conducted of all areas which had not been previously surveyed. Based on this work a total of 33 prehistoric and 11 historic sites in the park are now confirmed. The data compiled have been used to propose a management plan for the archaeological resources of the park area. In general it is recommended that extreme caution be exercised in implementing any proposed additions or alterations to park facilities. The integrity of the prehistoric sites in particular should not be compromised to any greater extent than has already occurred.
