  • Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan Proposed Land
    DRECP Proposed LUPA and Final EIS CHAPTER III.8. CULTURAL RESOURCES III.8 CULTURAL RESOURCES This chapter presents the Affected Environment for the Land Use Plan Amendment (LUPA) Decision Area and the Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan (DRECP) area for cultural resources. These areas overlap, and in the following programmatic discussion are referred to broadly as the “California Desert Region.” More than 32,000 cultural resources are known in the DRECP area in every existing environmental context ⎼ from mountain crests to dry lake beds ⎼ and include both surface and subsurface deposits. Cultural resources are categorized as buildings, sites, structures, objects, and districts (including cultural landscapes and Traditional Cultural Properties) under the federal National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). Historic properties are cultural resources included in, or eligible for inclusion in, the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), maintained by the Secretary of the Interior (36 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] 60.4). See Section III.8.1.1 for more information on federal regulations and historic properties. This chapter discusses three types of cultural resources classified by their origins: prehistoric, ethnographic, and historic. Prehistoric cultural resources are associated with the human occupation of California prior to prolonged European contact. These resources may include sites and deposits, structures, artifacts, rock art, trails, and other traces of Native American human behavior. In California, the prehistoric period began over 12,000 years ago and extended through the eighteenth century until 1769, when the first Europeans settled in California. Ethnographic resources represent the heritage of a particular ethnic or cultural group, such as Native Americans or African, European, Latino, or Asian immigrants.

  • Calico Redux: Artifacts Or Geofacts?
    CALICO REDUX: ARTIFACTS OR GEOFACTS? CHRISTOPHER HARDAKER EARTHMEASURE RESEARCH On closer inspection, Calico does not appear to be a natural rock crushing geofactory. Nor is it the case that Calico is bereft of definite and repetitive artifact types. Most tool types are either unifacial (including notched specimens) or bifacial in nature, hundreds of them, and delicately notched perforators (reamers, gravers). There are dozens of artifact types and subtypes represented, and there are thousands of flakes and tool types without cortex and with multiple flake scars. After a review of the controversy, tabulated data are presented. This paper reports on the findings from an examination of over 70,000 fractured subsurface lithic specimens from SBCM 1500A, the Calico Early Man Site, located just east of Barstow, California. The fractured materials are chert, chalcedony, agate, jasper, and other siliceous varieties from medium to high quality. The specimens were collected during excavations from Master Pit 1 (MP1), Master Pit 2 (MP2), with a small fraction from other associated excavations, including Master Pit 3, Trench 1, and several pieces collected from Control Pit 1. Ninety-five percent of the pieces were collected during the 1960s and 1970s in 3-in. levels inside 5-ft.-by-5-ft. units. The classification system was established in the 1960s and 1970s with very few subsequent changes. Occasionally assisted by avocationalist and longtime member of the Friends of Calico, Chris Vedborg, the examinations took place in the Anthropology Laboratory at the San Bernardino County Museum (SBCM) where all specimens are stored. The classified contents of MP1 and MP2 are contained in roughly 60 standard museum boxes.

  • Geocronología Del Cuaternario Para Arqueólogos
    Curso de Doctorado Geocronología del Cuaternario para arqueólogos Dictado por: Lewis Andrew OWEN, PhD Department of Geology, University of Cincinnati Fecha: 13 al 17 de marzo de 2017 El lunes 13 inicia a las 16 hs. Lugar: Facultad de Ciencias Sociales, Campus Universitario de Olavarría. Contenido Pagina Programa del curso 2 CV del docente 5 1 Doctorado en Arqueología Curso 1. Título: Geocronología del Cuaternario para arqueólogos 2. Docente a cargo: Lewis Andrew OWEN, PhD 3. Objetivos: Recientes avances en tecnologías geocronológicas del Cuaternario están ayudando a revolucionar nuestra comprensión del cambio paleoambiental y la evolución del paisaje mediante la definición de la planificación de eventos y la cuantificación de las tasas de cambio. Este curso tiene como objetivo examinar los principales principios, técnicas y aplicabilidad de los métodos siderales de datación, isotópica, radiogénica, química y biológica para contribuir a la formación de los arqueólogos que se ocupan de definir la temporalidad de los eventos y las tasas de cambio ambiental. Los estudios de casos iluminan el papel clave de la geocronología en la geomorfología y la arqueología. El curso consistirá en clases teóricas y prácticas donde se ayudará a los arqueólogos a evaluar la validez de los diferentes métodos de datación, así como el análisis y presentación de datos. 4. Contenidos: Unidades: 1. Introducción a la geocronología, estratigrafía y a la datación relativa 2. Datación por radiocarbono 3. La datación por luminiscencia 4. La datación cosmogénica 5.

  • Cultural Resources
    Draft DRECP and EIR/EIS CHAPTER III.8. CULTURAL RESOURCES III.8 CULTURAL RESOURCES This chapter presents the environmental setting/affected environment for the Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan (DRECP) for cultural resources. More than 32,000 cultural resources are known in the Plan Area and occur in every existing environmental context, from mountain crests to dry lake beds, and include both surface and sub-surface deposits. Cultural resources are categorized as buildings, sites, structures, objects, and districts under both federal law (for the purposes of the National Environmental Policy Act [NEPA] and the National Historic Preservation Act [NHPA]) and under California state law (for the purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act [CEQA]). Historic properties are cultural resources included in, or eligible for inclusion in, the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) maintained by the Secretary of the Interior and per the NRHP eligibility criteria (36 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] 60.4). See Section III.8.1.1 for more information on federal regulations and historic properties. Historical resources are cultural resources that meet the criteria for listing on the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR) (14 California Code of Regulations [CCR] Section 4850) or that meet other criteria specified in CEQA (see Section III.8.1.2). See Section III.8.1.2 for more information on state regulations and historical resources. This chapter discusses three types of cultural resources classified by their origins: prehistoric, ethnographic, and historic. Prehistoric cultural resources are associated with the human occupation and use of Cali- fornia prior to prolonged European contact.

Members of CLIR’s independent review panel were particularly impressed by these aspects of the proposal: • Model plan for involving connected Native communities in the project and providing access to Native communities; • Solid command of the complex legal, ethical, and cultural issues of the materials; and, • Well-articulated scholarly and public value of the materials. Please direct any questions to program staff at [email protected] Application: 0000000224 Recordings at Risk Summary ID: 0000000224 Last submitted: Jun 29 2018 03:40 PM (EDT) Application Form Completed - Jun 29 2018 Form for "Application Form" Section 1: Project Summary Applicant Institution (Legal Name) Autry Museum of the American West Applicant Institution (Colloquial Name) The Autry Project Title (max. 50 words) Digitizing A Century of Native Voice and Song at the Autry Museum Project Summary (max. 150 words) The Autry proposes to digitize approximately 400 Native songs, field recordings, oral histories, lectures, and theatre productions from 1898-2007. The earliest items are field recordings of Blackfeet songs recorded in 1898 by Walter McClintock, a photographer assigned with a federal commission investigating national forests. The latest are videos of theatre productions by Native Voices at the Autry, the only Equity theatre company in the US dedicated to producing new works by Native American playwrights. Funding would support digitization, hiring an intern to create related metadata, and posting finding aids and inventory lists online.
