Cultural Resources Survey of Public Use Areas, Wilson Lake, Kansas.

Abstract

An archeological sample survey of four Public Use Areas of Wilson lake in north central Kansas was conducted in October 1979. More than 15% of the designated areas were investigated during a pedestrian survey which was complemented by limited subsurface testing. Three sites were recorded; a mound of probable aboriginal construction; the remnants of a historic structure; and an area where paleontological remains were recovered. The survey indicated that the potential for archeological sites is greater nearer, the Saline river, than in the areas surveyed. Originator-supplied keywords include: Saline River, Russell and Lincoln Counties, Dissected High Plains, and Smokey Hills.
