Cultural Resources Investigations within Proposed Structures 18 and 20: Papillion Creek Tributaries Project, Douglas and Sarpy Counties, Nebraska.

Abstract

Phase 1 cultural resources investigations carried out within two proposed project units located in Douglas and Sarpy Counties near Omaha, Nebraska, were completed during February and March, 1981. Comprehensive background research and an intensive surface survey within select project areas were conducted to identify cultural resources located on project lands and to evaluate the need for further work required to assess the National Register eligibility of identified sites. In-field inspection was completed for 492 acres (51.4%) within structure 18 and for 716 acres (60.4%) within structure 20. This work resulted in identification of three Native American and 17 Euroamerican sites. A single Euroamerican farmstead site (25D029) located within structure 18 is considered of potential architectural interest and will require Phase 2 investigations to facilitate further assessment. No further investigations are recommended for structure 20. (Author)
