Abstract

At the request of Duncan Robertson, Inc., the Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology, Indiana University (GBL) performed a cultural resources survey of the proposed location for excavation of a borrow pit west of Bainbridge, Putnam County, Indiana. A total of approximately 0.46 acres was surveyed. The purposes of the survey were 1) to identify and document all of the cultural resources in the project area, 2) to evaluate any sites with regard to their eligibility for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and the Indiana Register of Historic Sites and Structures (IRHSS), and 3) to make recommendations for the protection of significant and potentially significant sites. Fieldwork was conducted May 26, 1999 by GBL archaeologists Wendy L. Natt and Mary E. Pirkl. The archaeologists were met on-site by a representative from Duncan Robertson Inc. No cultural materials were discovered in the project area. Cultural resource clearance is recommended for the project area provided that all earth-moving activities are restricted to the current proposed area of impact.
