This book was released on 1995 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Report describes results of Phase 1 archaeological & geomorphological survey of 121 ac. within the Batchtown Habitat Rehabilitation Enhancement Project (HREP), Pool 25, Mississippi River (mile 242 to mile 248, left bank), Calhoun County, Illinois. The project involves construction/enlargement of levees and 7 water control structures. Pedestrian survey and shovel testing located 3 prehistoric sites (11-C-2O6, 11-C-2O8, 11-C-209), 3 historic sites (11-C-2O5, 11- C-207, 11-C-211), and 1 prehistoric & historic site (11-C-21O). Potentially eligible sites 11-C-2O7, 11-C-2O8, 11-C-2O9 & 11-C-21O will be avoided by the project. Geomorphological investigations revealed land forms with potential for buried sites in the project's central portion; other areas have very little potential for containing cultural deposits. Project clearance in surveyed areas in regard to cultural resources is recommended. Survey was conducted in June, 1994 by American Resources Group, Ltd., for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Louis District on lands managed for waterfowl by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. The project is planned under the HREP, Environmental Management Program (EMP) established to enhance & rehabilitate the Upper Mississippi River system. (AN).

This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the results of a Phase I archaeological survey of 207 ac. within the Stump Lake Waterfowl Management Area, located in Pool 26, Illinois River (mile 7.2 to mile 12.7, left bank), Jersey County, Illinois. The project involves construction of levees, water control structures, pump stations boat ramp and access road. Pedestrian survey and screened shovel testing located one turn of the century residential/season site (11-Jy-283) determined ineligible. Geomorphological investigations identified two native ground surfaces buried beneath recent silt. Because these buried surfaces have potential to contain significant cultural resources, the project was modified to avoid them. Clearance of this project in regard to cultural resources is recommended. The survey was conducted in March 1994 by American Resources Group, Ltd., for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Louis District on lands managed for waterfowl by the Illinois Department of Conservation. The project is planned under the Habitat Rehabilitation Project (HREP), Environmental Management Program (EMP) established to enhance and rehabilitate the Upper Mississippi River System.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two longtime fieldworkers offer mentors' advice on finding and mapping archaeological sites. They outline the logic behind field surveying and the various designs used for survey projects. Recognizing that logistical issues—like schedule, budget, and equipment—are equally important to complete the job, particularly in a cultural resource management context, the authors also guide new professionals through the practical details of their work. The volume also ranges through the legal and ethical context of fieldwork and the various geophysical methods available for non-intrusive surveying. As a handy guide for novices, or a text for students and field schools, Collins and Molyneaux's book will be the place to start.

This book was released on 1993 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the findings of Phase II investigations conducted at sites 11-T-205, 11-T-240, and 11-T-243 within Farmdale Reservoir, Tazewell County, Illinois. The Rock Island District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is engaged in an ongoing management and evaluation program of archaeological sites on Federal lands within Farmdale Reservoir. Although the sites are not threatened by any currently proposed activities, they may be adversely impacted by future recreational activities and erosion. Therefore, an evaluation of the potential eligibility of sites 11-T-205, -240, and -243 for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) is required. Sites 11-T-205, -240, and -243 are prehistoric lithic scatters situated on the first terrace above the Farm Creek floodplain. Each of the sites is wooded, and none appears to have been disturbed by modern cultivation. Each of the investigated sites is small, and artifact density and artifact class diversity are low, suggesting sites 11-T-205, -240, and -243 functioned as field camps. No temporally diagnostic artifacts were recovered at the sites during the present investigation, but an occupation dating to the Middle Archaic period was identified at site 11-T-205 during an earlier survey.

W912EQ-06-D-0001. The project involves the installation of relief wells o the landward side of the levee. The project area consists of an area parallel to the existing levee berm toe and extends 200 ft (ft.: 60.96 meters [m]) landward. The project areas extends from Station 64/35+00 to Station 24/47+00. The total area investigated was approximately 960 acres 9ac.). A literature and records check at the Arkansas Archaeology Survey (AAS) in Fayette ville demonstrated that several previously recorded archaeological sites were located within and near the project area. Filed investigations were conducted from August 20 to 28, 2009 buy the author and three filed technicians. One portion of the ROW was not investigated, as it was under a large industrial complex that is presently under construction. During the survey, 17 previously recorded sites and 10 newly recorded archaeological sites (3MS885-3MS894) were identified. Seven 9n=7) of the previously recorded sites were known oly from General Land Office (GLO) maps; three of these are current farm operations, three are under the levee and/or town of Osceola, and the seventh (3MS258) was recorded as a surface and subsurface scatter of historic material during this study and recommended as not eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (). Fourpreviouss sites have been destroyed by the construction of an industrial complex south of Osceola: they had been recommended as not eligible The five remaining previous sites, and all 10 of the new sites, are sparse historic scatters heavilyy disturbed by plowing and are recommended as not eligible for listingg on the NRHP. No additional archaeological work is recommended for the project area.

Book excerpt: A riveting narrative look at one of the most colorful, dangerous, and peculiar places in America's historical landscape: the strange, wonderful, and mysterious Mississippi River of the 19th century. Beginning in the early 1800s and climaxing with the siege of Vicksburg in 1863, Wicked River brings to life a place where river pirates brushed elbows with future presidents and religious visionaries shared passage with thieves. Here is a minute-by-minute account of Natchez being flattened by a tornado; the St. Louis harbor being crushed by a massive ice floe; hidden, nefarious celebrations of Mardi Gras; and the sinking of the Sultana, the worst naval disaster in American history. Here, too, is the Mississippi itself: gorgeous, perilous, and unpredictable. Masterfully told, Wicked River is an exuberant work of Americana that portrays a forgotten society on the edge of revolutionary change.
