    Bald Mountains Geographic Area May 19, 2017 **Disclaimer: The specific descriptions, goals, desired conditions, and objectives only apply to the National Forest System Lands within the Bald Mountains Geographic Area. However, nearby communities and surrounding lands are considered and used as context. ** Bald Mountains Geographic Area Updated: May 19, 2017 Description of area High elevation grassy balds add a striking diversity to the Bald Mountains Geographic Area, which is shaped by the Roan Mountain Massif, Iron Mountain Ridge, and the Unaka and Bald Mountains. The balds on these long, mostly parallel ridges are primarily treeless and provide spectacular long-range views. The 20-mile stretch of mountain-top balds along the Roan-Unaka Mountain Range known as the Roan Highlands contains a mix of species unique on the Forests. A prominent tourist destination since the 19th century, the Roan Highlands remain one of the most visited sites in the region. One of the most distinct features of the landscape is the internationally-known Roan Mountain Rhododendron Garden, occurring at over 6,000 feet. The steep sideslopes of the undulating peaks along the state border have many drainages that feed into steep, cold streams. These streams flow to small rivers, and into the Nolichucky, French Broad, Pigeon, and Elk Rivers. The Nolichucky River significantly influences the landscape as it cuts a deep gorge separating Flattop Mountain to the south and the Unaka Mountains to the north. The region's forests include northern hardwoods and spruce-fir at higher elevations and abundant rich cove forests in the southern portion of the geographic area.

Bruce Council, M.A. Research Associate The Jeffrey L. Brown Institute of Archaeology University of Tennessee at Chattanooga August 31, 1992 1 Introduction In response to a solicitation by the Environmental Planning Office, Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT), the author inspected the visible remains of the Earnest Mill Site adjacent to the Nolichucky River Bridge on SR 351 in Greene County, Tennessee.

The author was authorized on July 31 to conduct an inspection of the site, and was subsequently authorized on August 17 to conduct site-specific archival research on the mill. Inspection of the mill site near Chuckey took place on August 12, and primary historical data on the mill was collected in Greeneville on August 24 and 25.

    DEPOPULATION AND CULTURE CHANGE IN THE EARLY HISTORIC PERIOD INTERIOR SOUTHEAST By MARVIN THOMAS SMITH 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 IIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1984 Copyright By Marvin Thomas Smith To Charlie, who taught me the art of anthropology, and to Dave, who taught me the craft of archaeology ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This study is the culmination of years of research interest in the early historic period. I have attempted to acknowledge all of the people who have given me considerable assistance in the past, but it is inevitable that someone will be left out by accident. I sincerely apologize to anyone who may have been overlooked. My interest in the early historic period grew out of fieldwork with David Hal ly at the Little Egypt site (1970-1972) and with Patrick Garrow and Hally at the King Site (1973-1974).
