This book was released on 1983 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of cultural resource surveys and Holocene geomorphological studies was conducted along the lower Illinois River valley floodplain. These projects were initiated as part of a comprehensive flood control study conducted by the Army Corps of Engineers. The purpose was to locate prehistoric and early historic archeological sites within a 45 meter wide corridor along the interior edge of the artificial levees. Field techniques included pedestrian walkover and shovel testing. Although the survey areas are very similar, environmental differences exist between the two districts. These differences include the development of natural levees, landform elevations, floodplain width and early historic vegetation. Twenty-three prehistoric archeological sites were identified. Nineteen sites are within the Hartwell District and four are in the Nutwood District. The distribution and description of collected assemblages are discussed. The potential effect of proposed levee improvements upon the archeological sites is evaluated and recommendations are presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iowa has more than eighteen thousand archaeological sites, and research in the past few decades has transformed our knowledge of the state's human past. Drawing on the discoveries of many avocational and professional scientists, Lynn Alex describes Iowa's unique archaeological record as well as the challenges faced by today's researchers, armed with innovative techniques for the discovery and recovery of archaeological remains and increasingly refined frameworks for interpretation. The core of this book--which includes many historic photographs and maps as well as numerous new maps and drawings and a generous selection of color photos--explores in detail what archaeologists have learned from studying the state's material remains and their contexts. Examining the projectile points, potsherds, and patterns that make up the archaeological record, Alex describes the nature of the earliest settlements in Iowa, the development of farming cultures, the role of the environment and environmental change, geomorphology and the burial of sites, interaction among native societies, tribal affiliation of early historic groups, and the arrival and impact of Euro-Americans. In a final chapter, she examines the question of stewardship and the protection of Iowa's many archaeological resources.
