Greater than 50 3.Less than 50 4.Unknown Site (Mill, Mound, Quarry, Lithic Scatter, etc.): Twentieth century artifact scatter Topography (Ridge, Terrace, etc.): Upland ridge Current Vegetation (Woods, Pasture, etc.): Planted pines Additional Information: Site 9CE657 represents a very light density twentieth century non-indian artifact scatter. Site 9CE657 appears to have been selectively harvested and most of the mature pines noted in the original report are now gone. Visual and subsurface examinations showed the site to have been impacted by past logging events, road-related construction and maintenance, and military activities. As a result of severe erosion, there is little to no soil remaining on most parts of 9CE657. This site is effectively destroyed with little to no research potential remaining. Based on the quantity and the nature of the evidence recovered as well as the extent of damage and disturbance to the entire area, PCI recommends 9CE657 be considered ineligible for listing on the NRHP. As such, no additional archaeological research is warranted for this location. c -- ---... -- "..- e.e-... _.....- 01020 -. - SKETCH MAP (Include sites, roads, FORT BENNING 27 PHASE II, ece657 SITE low' streams, landmarks) o 100 200 300 000 Mot... ---... o JOG lloo lioo 1200 Flit -~ OFFICIAL MAP (Xerox of proper map)
