Archaeological Survey of the Locations for Two Proposed Telecommunications Towers in Henryville and Sellersburg, Clark County, Indiana

Abstract

At the request of Terracon, the Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology (GBL) performed a cultural resources survey at two proposed locations for construction of telecommunications towers in Henryville and Sellersburg, Clark County, Indiana. Approximately 0.06 acres were surveyed at each location; a total of approximately 0.12 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 cultural materials found 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 June 26, 1998 by GBL archaeologists Wendy L. Natt and Mary E. Pirkl. No cultural materials were discovered. Cultural resource clearance is recommended for construction of the proposed telecommunications towers at both the Henryville and Sellersburg locations.
