Geophysical Investigation of an Early Late Woodland Community in the Middle Ohio River Valley: the Water Plant Site
Geophysical Investigation of an Early Late Woodland Community in the Middle Ohio River Valley: The Water Plant Site Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Karen L. Royce, M.A. Graduate Program in Anthropology The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Dr. William S. Dancey, Advisor Dr. Kristen J. Gremillion Dr. Ralph von Frese Copyright by Karen L. Royce 2011 Abstract Geophysical surveys using fluxgate gradiometer and magnetic susceptibility instruments were conducted at the early Late Woodland Water Plant site to investigate the community patterning within the site. The site was first investigated through archaeological survey and excavation under the direction of Dr. William S. Dancey approximately thirty years ago. The Water Plant site is located in Franklin County, Ohio within the Middle Ohio River Valley region. The re-examination of this site using different investigative techniques has yielded additional, illuminating information. As a result of the fluxgate gradiometer survey, the outer prehistoric ditch at the site was mapped in its entirety and defines the community area of the site. An inner prehistoric ditch and palisade were also mapped during the fluxgate gradiometer survey and additionally, sections of post screens were detected at gaps in the outer prehistoric ditch at the site. The magnetic susceptibility survey data indicate that the site area within the ditches had a high frequency of human use. Based on all these data, the site does appear to be definitively defensive in nature based on the two sets of earthen ditches and wooden palisade features encompassing roughly an 8-acre area and may be one of the earliest occurrences of a fortified community in the Middle Ohio River Valley. -

Its mission is to provide a service to other state agencies, to work with private landowners to protect archaeological sites, and to educate the public about Kentucky’s rich archaeological heritage. Kentucky Heritage Council The mandate of the Kentucky Heritage Council is to identify, preserve, and protect the cultural resources of Kentucky. The Council also maintains continually-updated inventories of historic structures and archaeological sites and nominates properties to the National Register of Historic Places. By working with other state and federal agencies, local communities, and interested citizens, the Council seeks to build a greater awareness of Kentucky’s past and to encourage the long-term preservation of Kentucky’s significant cultural resources. Through its various programs (e.g., Main Street, Grants, Publications, Rural Preservation, Civil War Initiative, Conferences), the Council strives to show how historic resources contribute to the heritage, economy, and quality of life of all Kentuckians.

ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF THE EARLY AND LATE FORT ANCIENT HOWARD SITE (15MA427), MADISON COUNTY, KENTUCKY By David Pollack and Eric J. Schlarb With Contributions By: C.

Schlarb With Contributions by: C. Brian Mabelitini Emanuel Breitburg Rick Burdin Jack Rossen Wesley D. Stoner Report Prepared for: James Howard Richmond Industrial Development Corporation Report Submitted by: Kentucky Archaeological Survey Jointly Administered by: University of Kentucky Kentucky Heritage Council 1020A Export Street Lexington, Kentucky 40506-9854 859/257-5173 February 2009 __________________________ David Pollack Principal Investigator ABSTRACT The Howard site contains the remains of an early Fort Ancient hamlet and a late Fort Ancient/Contact period village. The early Fort Ancient component is represented by Jessamine Series ceramic and Type 2 Fine Triangular projectile points, while the late Fort Ancient component is represented by Madisonville series ceramics, Type 4 and Type 6 Fine Triangular projectile points, and unifacial and bifacial endscrapers. The presence of a marginella shell bead and mica fragments reflect long distance interaction with groups living to the south, and the recovery of a glass bead and a copper bead points to interaction with Europeans. Based on the presence of intact subplowzone deposits associated with both components, and the recovery of human remains, the Howard site is eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. -
The Ronald Watson Gravel Site (15Be249): an Examination of the Late Woodland/ Fort Ancient Transition in Boone County, Kentucky
The Ronald Watson Gravel Site (15Be249): An examination of the Late Woodland/ Fort Ancient transition in Boone County, Kentucky A thesis submitted to the Division of Research and Advanced Studies Of the University of Cincinnati In partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS In the Department of Anthropology Of the McMicken College of Arts and Sciences 2006 by Karl Raymond Huebchen B.A., University of Cincinnati, 1992 Committee Chair: Dr. Alan P. Sullivan, III ABSTRACT The Ronald Watson Gravel site (15Be249) is located on a terrace of the Ohio River, in Boone County, Kentucky, just downstream from Cincinnati. Excavated during the early 1990s, initial research suggested inconclusively that a transitional Late Woodland/Fort Ancient occupation may be present. This thesis re-examines a portion of the ceramic collection from the site, and re-evaluates this conclusion. Results of the analysis from feature and surface contexts, in addition to the acquisition of six radiocarbon dates, suggest that the site was occupied during the Late Archaic, Middle Woodland, Late Woodland, and Middle Fort Ancient periods, without conclusive evidence of any transitional occupations. The data were then compared to a southwestern Ohio ceramic chronology, in order to further tighten the periods of occupation at 15Be249. I conclude that sufficient variation exists between the two areas that additional research is needed to develop a detailed ceramic chronology for northern Kentucky. i ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to extend thanks and appreciation to those individuals without whom this thesis would not have been possible. Firstly, I need to recognize the now-defunct University of Cincinnati Center for Cultural Resources Management (UCCCRM) for giving me the opportunity to work at the Watson Gravel site as an undergraduate student in the early 1990s. -

Field work was conducted from July 29 through July 31, 2015. The archaeological survey involved systematic shovel probe excavation, bucket augering, and visual inspection within the project’s entire Area of Potential Effect. Two previously unrecorded archaeological sites 15Mo170, 15Mo171 and one Isolated Find (IF 1) were identified within the project bounds. The known, surveyed extents of the sites identified within the APE were not deemed potentially eligible for nomination to the National Register of Historical Places (NRHP) under Criterion D, and no further work is recommended. -
