| Site Name: |
Deep Run Quarry |
| Brief Description: |
Early, Middle, & Late Archaic and Early & Late Woodland camp; 19th-century log house site |
| Site Type: |
Historic/Prehistoric |
| Site Notes: |
A total of 302 shovel tests and 29 test units were excavated in Phase II. Prehistoric artifact concentrations tested at the site could not be characterized as distinct activity areas. A large burn feature was examined by multiple test units. It was determined to be burned earth related to the burning of a 19th-century structure, rather than an actual architectural feature.
Artifact counts for the structural feature are an estimate as most historic artifacts were found in the plowzone. Actual remains for the structure have been plowed away.
6,125 prehistoric and 221 historic artifacts were recovered. |
