An Archeological Survey at Fort Devens, Massachusetts and Its Off-Base Facilities.

Abstract

A cultural research survey was conducted at Fort Devens Military Reservation, Massachusetts and 67 offbase support facilities in the five New England States, most of them in Connecticut and Massachusetts. The data gathered was used to test two preliminary models of site prediction based on environmental data. The majority of the areas surveyed exhibited extensive disturbance due to prior land use and modification. No prehistoric cultural materials which would limit the potential use of the areas surveyed were found in any of the areas surveyed. (Author)
