The primary legal authorities on the federal and state levels are Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, as implemented by 36 CFR Part 800, Chapter 267, Florida Statutes (F.S.), and Rule 1A-46, F.A.C. The intent is to foster quality assurance through the standardization of work and reporting requirements. Exclusive of the Introduction (Section 1), Module Three is divided into seven major sections, which address the following: • Section 2 provides a detailed look at the site assessment survey (Phase I) process for both archaeological and historic resources. • Section 3 focuses on archaeological test excavation (Phase II). • Section 4 describes the mitigation alternatives for archaeological sites, including excavation and data recovery (Phase III). • Section 5 explains how identified cultural resources are evaluated as per their eligibility for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). It includes a “how to” for nominating individual properties, districts and multiple properties to the NRHP. • Section 6 explains the effects determination process, and includes information on the preparation of Section 106 Consultation Case Study Reports. • Section 7 provides guidance on the preparation of agreement documents, including agreement-based determinations of no adverse effect, memoranda of agreement, and programmatic agreements. • Section 8 examines the ways in which adverse effects to significant historic resources may be avoided, minimized, or mitigated. Module Three incorporates the guidance contained in a number of existing documents. Hyperlinks are provided for easy navigation to the primary source documents, which include some of the following: • The Historic Preservation Compliance Review Program of the Florida Department of State, Division of Historical Resources (November 1990, final draft) • Florida Rule Chapter 1A-46 (2002) (Archaeological and Historical Report Standards and Guidelines) • The Florida Department of Transportation’s Cultural Resource Management Handbook (1995, revised 2001) • 36 CFR Part 800 (Protection of Historic Properties) • 36 CFR Part 60 (National Register of Historic Places) • 36 CFR Part 63 (Determinations of eligibility for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places) Cultural Resource Management Standards & Operational Manual 2 Module Three Guidelines for Use by Historic Preservation Professionals • 36 CFR Part 68 (Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties) • 36 CFR Part 79 (Curation of Federally-Owned and Administered Archaeological Collections) • 43 CFR Part 10 (NAGPRA Regulations) • Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Archaeology and Historic Preservation (48 FR 44716) • Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Archaeological Documentation • Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Architectural and Engineering Documentation • Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Preservation Planning • Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation • Various “How To” Bulletins published by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS) • Preparing Agreement Documents (Advisory Council on Historic Preservation [ACHP], 1988) • Recommended Approach for Consultation on Recovery of Significant Information from Archaeological Sites (64 FR 27085-87, ACHP 1999) • National Register Handbook (1996) prepared by the staff of the Survey and Registration Section of the DHR • Guidelines for Section 106 Review of Proposed Cellular Tower Locations (DHR) • Florida’s Cultural Heritage: A View of the Past (DHR) • More Than Orange Marmalade: A Statewide Comprehensive Historic Preservation Plan (DHR) • Documentation Requirements for Buildings Proposed for Demolition and Standards for Architectural Documentation (DHR) • Performance Standards for Submerged Remote Sensing Surveys • Minimum Documentation for State and Local Reviews Cultural Resource Management Standards & Operational Manual 3 Module Three Guidelines for Use by Historic Preservation Professionals 2.0 CULTURAL RESOURCE ASSESSMENT SURVEYS (PHASE I) 2.1 INTRODUCTION The Cultural Resource Assessment Survey (CRAS), also known as a Phase I survey, is the only type of survey which satisfies the historic preservation requirements of federal and state laws and regulations (e.g., Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and 36 CFR Part 800; Chapter 267, F.S.

Degree awarded June 2020. ii © 2020 Anne Gregory This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs (United States) License. iii THESIS ABSTRACT Anne Gregory Master of Science Conflict and Dispute Resolution June 2020 Title: Chunkey, Cahokia, and Indigenous Conflicts Resolution Chunkey, a traditional Native American sport, was a form of conflict resolution. The popular game was one of several played for millennia throughout Native North America. Indigenous communities played ball games not only for the important culture- making of sport and recreation, but also as an act of peace-building. The densely populated urban center of Cahokia, as well as its agricultural suburbs and distant trade partners, were dedicated to chunkey. Chunkey is associated with the milieu surrounding the Pax Cahokiana (1050 AD-1200 AD), an era of reduced armed conflict during the height of Mississippian civilization (1000-1500 AD). The relational framework utilized in archaeology, combined with dynamics of conflict resolution, provides a basis to explain chunkey’s cultural impact.

  • An Archaeological Inventory of Alamance County, North Carolina
    AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVENTORY OF ALAMANCE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA Alamance County Historic Properties Commission August, 2019 AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVENTORY OF ALAMANCE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA A SPECIAL PROJECT OF THE ALAMANCE COUNTY HISTORIC PROPERTIES COMMISSION August 5, 2019 This inventory is an update of the Alamance County Archaeological Survey Project, published by the Research Laboratories of Anthropology, UNC-Chapel Hill in 1986 (McManus and Long 1986). The survey project collected information on 65 archaeological sites. A total of 177 archaeological sites had been recorded prior to the 1986 project making a total of 242 sites on file at the end of the survey work. Since that time, other archaeological sites have been added to the North Carolina site files at the Office of State Archaeology, Department of Natural and Cultural Resources in Raleigh. The updated inventory presented here includes 410 sites across the county and serves to make the information current. Most of the information in this document is from the original survey and site forms on file at the Office of State Archaeology and may not reflect the current conditions of some of the sites. This updated inventory was undertaken as a Special Project by members of the Alamance County Historic Properties Commission (HPC) and published in-house by the Alamance County Planning Department. The goals of this project are three-fold and include: 1) to make the archaeological and cultural heritage of the county more accessible to its citizens; 2) to serve as a planning tool for the Alamance County Planning Department and provide aid in preservation and conservation efforts by the county planners; and 3) to serve as a research tool for scholars studying the prehistory and history of Alamance County.

  • The Organic Clovis: a Single Continent-Wide Cultural Adaptation
    THE ORGANIC CLOVIS: A SINGLE CONTINENT-WIDE CULTURAL ADAPTATION By CHRISTOPHER ANDREW HEMMINGS A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2004 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A list of individuals who have made it possible to complete this document would be as large again as the bibliography. To all of my fellow archaeologists, anthropologists, bike racers, friends and family I extend my most heartfelt gratitude for engaging in or suffering through endless Clovis, Paleoindian, and “Do you know why this bone is important” discussions. It is quite humbling to realize how many people have buoyed my spirits, aided materially, and even provided shelter during this process. If this work has any merit, and I have become fit to create more, it is due in large part to the opportunity provided by those who helped me get this far. If I am able to create similar opportunity for others the opportunities provided for me shall not have been wasted. Beyond a shadow of a doubt S. David Webb stands alone as mentor, supporter, and friend. The debt of gratitude I owe William O. Gifford is as equally profound. Lacking the assistance of these two individuals, pursuit of the endless dissertation would have ended. Unable to articulate my thanks adequately I simply continue to forge ahead, as they have helped me do for so long. 11 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ii LIST OF TABLES v LIST OF FIGURES vii ABSTRACT x CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION,
