Download or read book Inventories and Surveys for Heritage Management written by David Myers and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2024-07-30 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open-access publication provides essential guidance on digital inventories and surveys for the identification, conservation, and management of heritage places. A critical first step in the conservation of cultural heritage is to identify and understand the places we want to protect. Inventories and surveys are essential tools in this effort, and their use in managing national, regional, and local heritage is mandated in heritage-related legislation across the globe. Despite the widespread understanding of the importance of inventories and surveys, however, practical, up-to-date guidance on how they should be created, implemented, and maintained has been substantially lacking—until now. This publication draws from the Getty Conservation Institute’s ongoing work with heritage inventories and on the Los Angeles Office of Historic Resources’ experience with SurveyLA. It provides technical advice, guidance, and lessons learned for employing inventories and surveys as tools for heritage conservation and management. The free online edition of this open-access publication will be available at www.getty.edu/publications/inventories-and-surveys. Also available are free PDF and EPUB downloads of the book.

Download or read book Practicing Archaeology written by Thomas W. Neumann and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-08-15 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive text and reference book addresses the questions and problems of cultural resources archaeology for undergraduate and graduate students and practicing archaeologists. Neumann, Sanford, and Neumann use their decades of field experience to discuss in great detail the complex processes involved in conducting a cultural resources management (CRM) project. Dealing with everything from law to logistics, archival research to artifact analysis, project proposals to report production, they provide an invaluable sourcebook for archaeologists who do contract archaeology. After introducing the legal and ethical aspects of CRM and stakeholder engagement, the authors describe the processes of designing a proposal and contracting for work, doing background research, conducting assessment, testing, mitigation work (Phase I, II, and III), laboratory analysis, and preparing reports for project sponsors. The volume’s emphasis on practical problems, use of extensive examples, and detailed advice on a host of subjects make it an ideal manual for archaeologists and field schools. This revised and expanded third edition of Practicing Archaeology: A Manual for Cultural Resources Archaeology updates Federal and state contracting protocols and covers preparing safety plans for occupational hazards, organization of an archaeology laboratory, use of electronic technology and digital media, advice on field and personnel management, and how to make a living doing cultural resources archaeology.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Louis Berger Group, Inc., Richmond, Virginia, has completed a cultural resource survey in association with the proposed widening of Route 3 (Germanna Highway) in Stevensburg, Culpeper County, Virginia, on behalf of the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) as part of Project 0003-023-107, P101, R201; PPMS No. 14657. The survey area for this investigation as defined by VDOT covered the proposed widening of Route 3 from two 11-foot (3.4-meter) lanes to four lanes, extending the right-of-way from 60 feet (12.3 meters) to 130 feet (39.6 meters) for a distance of 1.7 miles (2.7 kilometers), from 0.2 mile (0.3 kilometer) west of the western intersection with Route 600 (York Road) to 0.5 mile (0.8 kilometer) east of the eastern intersection with Route 600. The survey area totaled 26.8 acres (10.8 hectares). Land surrounding the Salubria historic property (VDHR No. 023-0020) is held under easement by both the Virginia Outdoors Foundation and the Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, Inc.; permission was not granted to access this easement, and therefore a distance of approximately 360 feet (110 meters) on the south side of Route 3 was not tested.This cultural resource investigation included background research and archaeological and architectural surveys. Background research involved a review of the site file inventories at the Virginia Department of Historic Resources (VDHR) in Richmond, maps and literature at the Library of Virginia, and property information from Culpeper County. Two previously recorded archaeological sites and 65 architectural resources are located within a 1-mile (1.6-kilometer) radius of the survey area. No archaeological resources have been previously recorded within or adjoining the survey area. The objective of the archaeological survey was (1) to verify the presence or absence of previously identified sites; (2) to identify any new archaeological resources that might be located within portions of the survey area; and (3) assess the potential for further investigation of any such resources. Archaeological fieldwork was conducted on July 27-31 and August 10-14, 2009, and consisted of pedestrian survey, metal detection survey, and shovel testing. Exposed surfaces were examined, and 163 shovel tests were excavated. The survey corridor was 200 feet in width, centered on the center line of Route 3. Four artifact locations (Locations 1-4) were identified during the shovel testing. Although the survey area is located within the Brandy Station Battlefield Historic District (VDHR No. 023-0053) and the Brandy Station Battlefields Study Area (VDHR No. 023-5055), only one artifact was recovered that may be related to the Civil War. No surface features indicative of military activities, such as earthworks, rifle pits or trenches, or remnants of artillery emplacements, were observed during the survey. Judging from the results of the field investigations, the survey area appears to have been impacted by construction activities associated with the road. Berger recommends Locations 1, 2, 3, and 4 as not meeting the VDHR’s definition of an archaeological site, and the survey area as not contributing to the eligibility of either the Brandy Station Battlefield Historic District or the Brandy Station Battlefields Study Area. Berger recommends that no additional work be conducted within the survey area.The architectural survey was conducted on July 29-31, 2009. VDOT requested that Berger survey 45 previously recorded architectural resources in the vicinity of the survey area at a reconnaissance level and evaluate their eligibility for listing in National Register of Historic Places. Of these 45, one is listed in the National Register, four have been determined eligible for listing in the National Register by the VDHR, four have been determined not eligible, and the remaining 36 resources had not been previously evaluated for National Register eligibility. During the survey Berger found that two of these resources have been demolished, and one is partially collapsed. Of the remaining previously unevaluated resources, Berger recommends two as eligible for listing in the National Register, Zimmerman’s Tavern (VDHR No. 023-5162) and the House at 19020 Stevensburg Road (VDHR No. 023-5164). The remaining 34 resources are recommended as not eligible. Although consideration was given to the potential for a historic district within the hamlet of Stevensburg, there was not a sufficient concentration of intact historic resources in the area that would convey the historical appearance, character, or feeling of the original hamlet. For these reasons, the hamlet of Stevensburg is not recommended eligible as a historic district.
