St.Andrews State Park Bay County, Florida CULTURAL RESOURCES ASSESSMENT SURVEY OF 55.44 ACRES AT ST. ANDREWS STATE PARK BAY COUNTY, FLORIDA CULTURAL RESOURCES ASSESSMENT SURVEY OF 55.44 ACRES AT ST. ANDREWS STATE PARK BAY COUNTY, FLORIDA PREPAED FOR CPH, INC. 1031-CW 23RD STREET PANAMA CITY, FLORIDA 32405 BY E. NIKOLAUS DUDLEY AND NATHAN MOUNTJOY L. Janice Campbell Principal Investigator PRENTICE THOMAS & ASSOCIATES, INC. REPORT OF INVESTIGATIONS NO. 1544 NOVEMBER 2019 This page intentionally left blank. ii ABSTRACT In August of 2019, CPH, Inc., contracted with Prentice Thomas and Associates, Inc., to conduct a cultural resources assessment survey of 55.44 acres located in St. Andrews State Park in Bay County, Florida. Located in the area of the existing campground which has been prone to flooding, CPH, Inc., has been tasked with conducting planned drainage improvements to alleviate or eliminate the flooding in the campground area. The purpose of the cultural resource assessment survey was to determine if the proposed undertaking posed a threat to known or yet undiscovered cultural resources. The area of planned drainage improvements had not been previously surveyed, but the background research revealed the presence of one known prehistoric site, 8BY171. Therefore, relocating this site, if still present, was another objective of the current effort. Fifty- nine 50 cm by 50 cm survey shovel tests were laid out on a systematic grid, however, 15 were no- digs due to disturbance associated with the construction of the campgrounds and/or the presence of standing water. Therefore, the investigations consisted of an intensive pedestrian survey across the entire tract and the excavation of 44 50 cm by 50 cm shovel tests. The plotted location of 8BY171 was carefully examined but that prehistoric site appears to have been lost to erosion. No new sites were encountered, so the proposed drainage improvements pose no threat of impact to any cultural resources and no further work is recommended. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT

    DEFENDING AND PROVISIONING THE CATAWBA NATION: AN ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE MID-EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY COMMUNITIES AT NATION FORD Mary Elizabeth Fitts A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Anthropology. Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: C. Margaret Scarry R.P. Stephen Davis Brett H. Riggs Silvia Tomášková Margaret Wiener Kathleen DuVal © 2015 Mary Elizabeth Fitts ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MARY ELIZABETH FITTS: Defending and Provisioning the Catawba Nation: An Archaeology of the Mid-Eighteenth-Century Communities at Nation Ford (Under the Direction of C. Margaret Scarry) In the mid-eighteenth century, several Catawba communities were situated near Nation Ford, where the main trading path that traversed the southern Appalachian Piedmont crossed the Catawba River. Men from these communities had adopted a militaristic strategy of serving as auxiliaries for the English colonies. The alliance between the Catawba Nation and South Carolina, in particular, precipitated a set of processes that transformed the conditions of daily life near Nation Ford. Two of these processes were settlement aggregation and the incorporation of native refugee communities. In this dissertation I consider whether the political process of centralization through which refugees were incorporated into the Catawba Nation was accompanied by parallel changes in economic organization, particularly with regard to foodways. I also examine the impacts of settlement aggregation on the formulation of community identities and the farming and foraging practices of Catawba women. In addressing these topics, I consult primary documents to assess the character of the alliance between the English colonies and the Catawba Nation, and to trace the development of the Catawba’s role as auxiliaries.

Over the past 12,000 years, Florida's Native Americans have witnessed the effects of global environmental change, developed complex societies, were among the first to encounter Europeans, and defied the U.S. government's attempt to remove them from their homeland. The origins of native cultures are marked by mounds, earthworks, middens, and other archaeological sites throughout the state. Names such as Miami, Pensacola, Okeechobee, Tallahassee and Caloosahatchee are reminders of the people who lived here first. Traditions practiced by native people living in Florida today ensure their cultural legacy will endure. The Florida Native American Fieritage Trail presents and honors the past and present. Included are more than 100 destinations where visitors can experience the rich history and modern culture of Florida's native people. This publication also provides an account of the 12,000-plus years of Native American presence and significance in Florida. Additionally, special interest topics and biographies of individuals important to Florida's Native American heritage are presented throughout this publication.

In the pouch, he carried a ceremonial pipe.
