A Cultural Resources Inventory of the Pearl River Basin, Louisiana and Mississippi. Volume I.

Abstract

Heartfield, Price and Greene, Inc. of Monroe, Louisiana, was contracted by the United States Corps of Engineers, Mobile District to perform a literature search of a one-mile-wide corridor adjacent to the Pearl River south of Ross Barnett Reservoir. This report has collected and synthesized geological, archeological, ethnographic and historic data pertaining to the study area. This study has revealed that very little research regarding the cultural resources of the corridor has been done. Human use of the area has been documented for all of the major period of prehistory except Coles Creek. In many cases, however, only a few sites provide the evidence for these time periods. Research problems and gaps in the literature are discussed. Recommendations and future goals for the study area are presented and an annotated bibliography is provided.
