Pecora Ph.D., RPA Principal Investigator July 3, 2012 Prepared for: U.S. Department of Energy Portsmouth/Paducah Project Office 1017 Majestic Drive, Suite 200 Lexington, Kentucky 40513 Submitted by: Restoration Services, Inc. Portsmouth Environmental Technical Services Contractor Post Office Box 448 Waverly, Ohio 45690 Management Summary During the winter of 2010 and spring of 2011, Ohio Valley Archaeology, Inc., conducted Phase II archaeological assessment studies on six historic-era farmstead sites (33Pk185, 33Pk203, 33Pk206, 33Pk211, 33Pk217, and 33Pk218) within the U.S. DOE Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PORTS) facility. The 3,777-acre PORTS facility is located in the deeply dissected portion of the Appalachian Plateau of south-central Ohio, adjacent to the Scioto River floodplain and south of the Village of Piketon in Pike County. Historical maps and records demonstrate that the lands that currently make up PORTS were subdivided into numerous individual property parcels in the early part of the nineteenth century. Limited deed research and extensive archaeological excavation, however, show that some of the PORTS farmsteads were developed and occupied no earlier than the middle and later decades of the nineteenth century, whereas others came to be as late as the early twentieth century. The primary goal of the Phase II site assessment was to develop a comprehensive understanding of the character and contents of each farmstead site. The methodology used in this study was designed to: (1) reconstruct, as much as possible, the history, use, and layout of each farmstead; (2) delineate and document all above ground features and structure locations as they exist today; (3) identify subsurface features, especially buried foundations, cellars, and privies, using geophysical survey and hand excavation; (4) delineate and sample artifact concentrations using close-interval systematic shovel testing; (5) excavate and document selected subsurface features; and (6) analyze the resulting artifact assemblages. Despite the 1950s-era farmstead demolition, which removed the farmstead buildings, the six farmsteads examined in this study are in fairly good archaeological condition. All contain intact artifact deposits and foundation remains for the major buildings and outbuildings that stood in these locations prior to demolition. In several instances, the foundations for buildings that are not visible on the 1938/9 and 1951 aerials were also identified. The Phase II investigation was also successful with the identification of architectural features that are not visible on the surface, such as privy shafts, sub-floor pit cellars, wells, foundations, and landscaping features. Although all above ground features were identified and documented, all six farmsteads are likely to contain additional subsurface features that were not detected in this survey effort. All six farmsteads produced sizeable artifact assemblages dominated by architectural debris and kitchen refuse. It is likely the majority of the architectural items were deposited when the buildings were razed in the 1950s. Some, however, may have resulted from construction, remodeling, and building replacement during farmstead occupation. For the most part, the kitchen refuse and architectural debris was found to be concentrated together, usually near the house foundations. Smaller artifact concentrations were only rarely found around outbuilding locations. The co-location of both artifact groups suggests their deposition was primarily the result of a catastrophic event, such as farmstead abandonment and demolition, rather than as the result of a gradual accretion of refuse over a long period of occupation. Although most of the dateable artifacts appear to date to the early and middle part of the twentieth century, five of the six farmsteads produced middle to late nineteenth century mean ceramic dates and some of the sites had notable amounts of early-mid nineteenth century ceramics. Inferences regarding the earliest date of occupation from property deed records correspond well with the mean ceramic dates calculated from these assemblages. As isolated sites, none of the six farmsteads examined in this study is independently eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. However, as individual components of a mid-nineteenth to mid-twentieth century rural community, they, along with other historic-era sites that have been documented at PORTS, have the potential to yield locally important information about the history of farmsteads and rural people of Pike County, Ohio. While the physical preservation and protection of individual farmstead sites is not recommended, the existing archaeological information coupled with future historical document research should be used to develop a comprehensive analysis of the rural community. Consultation with the Ohio Historic Preservation Office and other consulting parties regarding such a research plan is recommended. TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1.

  • 6 Uncovering Site 7NC-F-94: Results of Phase III Fieldwork
    AT THE ROAD’S EDGE: FINAL ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF THE WILSON FARM TENANCY SITE 6 Uncovering Site 7NC-F-94: Results of Phase III Fieldwork METHODS KSK undertook Phase III archaeological excavations at the Wilson Farm Tenancy Site during the period from March to May 2007, with a return visit in August of that year. These excavations were initiated in accordance with the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (as amended), the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation’s “Protection of Historic Properties” (36 CFR 800), and the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and Historic Preservation (Federal Register 48(190): 44730-44734). Excavation methods followed the guidelines outlined in the DE SHPO’s Guidelines for Architectural and Archaeological Surveys in Delaware (1993). The Phase III archaeological investigations at Site 7NC-F-94 consisted of three principal fieldwork components: 1) an initial plowzone sampling strategy; 2) mechanical stripping of the site area; and 3) feature excavation. KSK initially excavated 28 test units (Test Units 6–31 and 34) to sample the plowzone and explore the brick foundation of Wilson Farm Tenant House III (Figures 6.1 and 6.2). The excavations and mechanical stripping resulted in the identification of 104 features (Figure 6.3). Finally, three additional test units (Test Units 32, 35, and 36) were excavated to uncover a shaft feature (Feature 34) exposed near the southwestern corner of the foundation. Test units were designated per their coordinates (N70/E120, for example) and also assigned simple numerical designations (Test Unit 1, Test Unit 20, etc.) for ease of discussion.

The Phase 2 Stage 1 site was located north east of Kingsborough Farm, Eastchurch, Isle of Sheppey, Kent, and to the north west of Kingsborough Manor housing development Phase 1 (Fig. 1). Work was undertaken between July and September 2004 and was carried out as a condition of planning permission for the development granted by Swale District Council and pursuant to a specification issued by the Heritage Conservation Group of Kent County Council. This report provides a brief summary of the excavation results. The Site (NGR 597725 172394) comprised an area of land totalling approximately 15,759m² and was located to the north of Kingsborough Farm, 2km south-east of Minster and c. 1.25km to the north-west of the village of Eastchurch, Isle of Sheppey. It occupies an elevated position on the Isle of Sheppey, close to the north eastern edge of a ridge extending east-west along the island, with commanding views to the north and east over the Thames and the Essex coast.

Its central position gives it a special character. It is, above all, a route node where the east–west ridgeways from the North Downs, the South Downs, Cranborne Chase and the Marlborough Downs converge with the north–south river routes, the Avon and the Test, which provide access, through the forests and heathlands of the Hampshire Basin, to the waters of the Solent beyond. But there is an ambivalence about the region. While open to influences from all direc- tions, this very openness endowed it with a strategic significance well understood by those who, in the past, wished to control the movements of peoples and commodities. As we will argue below, the region became a frontier zone for much of the latter part of the first millennium BC, dividing east from west. This block of downland was chosen for detailed study partly because of its commanding position in the landscape of central southern Britain but also because previous archaeological activity has provided an exten- sive database invaluable in developing a detailed research strategy. Most notable among the earlier work were the pre-war excavations of the Cunningtons and J. F. S. Stone focusing on Bronze Age and Iron Age settlements in eastern Wiltshire and the campaign of hillfort excavations Read at the Academy 23 October 2008.

  • Guidelines for Conducting Archaeology in Vermont
    GUIDELINES FOR CONDUCTING ARCHAEOLOGY IN VERMONT 2017 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Amending the Guidelines for Conducting Archaeology in Vermont (Guidelines) was a team effort, headed by State Archaeologist, Jess Robinson, under the direction of State Historic Preservation Officer, Laura V. Trieschmann, with insight and assistance from Vermont Division for Historic Preservation (VDHP) archaeologists Scott Dillon and Yvonne Benney Basque. These Guidelines update and supersede the previous version developed by the previous State Archaeologist, Giovanna Peebles, and Scott Dillon. An advisory committee consisting of State government, academic and non-profit archaeologists discussed many ideas and topics leading to the development of a preliminary list of priority research questions important to understanding the precontact and post-contact history of Vermont. The advisory committee also commented on an earlier draft of the Guidelines. VDHP would like to thank all of the Vermont archaeologists whose excavations, publications, and knowledge contributed to the reasoning behind these guidelines.

  • Discrete Feature Contexts and Site Structure at the Ashe Ferry Site
    Chapter 4 Discrete Feature Contexts and Site Structure at the Ashe Ferry Site The 2010 investigations at 38YK533 designated 81 discrete archaeological features evident as soil disturbances intrusive into the subsoil horizon (Figures 4.1, 4.2, 4.3; Table 4:1; Appendix B). These intrusions were identified as potential cultural features on the basis of apparent morphology, soil matrices, or content evident upon removal of overlying plowzone or other overburden deposits. Excavation determined that 52 of these features were of cultural origin or contained deposits of cultural origin; 29 soil disturbances were determined to be probable natural tree root molds, stumpholes or disturbances from uprooted tree collapse. The 52 cultural features are attributable to multiple site occupations during the Late Archaic (n=1), the Middle Woodland (n=1), the Late Woodland (n=37), and Mississippian (n=9) periods, but comprise relatively few discrete formal and functional classes, including fire-cracked or burned rock concentrations (i.e., rock hearths) (n=13), large storage pits (n=8), shallow basins and small pits (n=16), postholes (n=9), graves (n=3), and caches (n=2). The unique depositional situation at 38YK533, with modern flood-deposited coarse sands that cap a shallow pre-1916 plowzone, protected the site from the effects of mechanized plowing, and resulted in preservation of discrete archaeological contexts normally obliterated on most sites in the region. Even slightly deeper plowing of the site matrix would have eliminated most of the discrete facilities, particularly the shallow rock-filled basins and other roasting facilities, thereby severely constraining interpretability of site structure and function.

  • Guidelines for the Digital Recording System
    VULCI 3000 CRIB SHEET Guidelines for the Digital Recording System 0. Introduction The Vulci 3000 Project uses the single context method recording system: it means that each excavated stratigraphic unit (context) is given a unique ID number and it is recorded by: • Unit Sheet • Photos • Plan and/or section drawings; height above sea level The finds from each unit are bagged and labeled with their unit number for later cross reference work carried out in the post excavation. Samples of deposits from contexts are sometimes also taken for later environmental analysis or scientific dating. At Vulci, the conventional documentation integrates digital 3D data recorded by photogrammetric techniques or by laser scanning. In general, photogrammetry is systematically used in micro-scale (layers) and 3D laser scanning in macro-scale (large-scale survey). 1. The Unit List As soon as the unit is recognized, you have to choose a unique ID number from the master unit list, available on the tablet. Before recording, check the list and assign to your unit the first untaken number on the list. Avoid duplicate numbers because they cause endless problems and result in loss of information. Two different units cannot have the same number so verify and record the number of the unit in the Master Unit List. Specifically, the Master Unit List consists of: Number: enter the first untaken number of the list; that will be the ID number of your unit Definition: o Enter the type of the unit, positive (layer or fill) or negative (cut) o Provide a more specific interpretation of the unit: .
