San Luis Rey River Basin: Overview of Cultural Resources,
Abstract
The drainage system of the San Luis Rey River is a region of major cultural and historic significance. Over 300 archeological sites and a number of recognized historic locations have been identified in the drainage. Any proposed project in the San Luis Rey basin should be closely examined for possible impact on cultural and historic resources. Although only three sites are presently listed on the National Register of Historic Places, numerous additional sites and districts would appear to qualify for listing and nomination of these sites is encouraged. The archeological, ethnographic, and historic potential of the river system is enormous, and all possible steps should be taken to preserve the cultural and historic resources of the San Luis Rey River.
