Archeological Investigations within Federal Lands Located on the East Bank of the Lake Sharpe Project Area, South Dakota: 1978-1979. Volume 1. Covering Report.

Abstract

Class III cultural resources investigations of all Federal lands along the east (left) bank of Lake Sharpe, South Dakota were carried out in 1978-1979 by the University of Nebraska for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District. A total of 136 sites were investigated, including both prehistoric (n=92) and historic (n=59) components. Historic components represent both Native American and Euroamerican use of the project area. Plains Village period remains (n=49) make up a majority of the prehistoric components; Plains Woodland period (n=8) and Plains Archaic period (n=4) components are also identified. Resources on both the east and west banks of Lake Sharpe were considered in developing a Multiple Resource Nomination. Four districts were proposed, including a total of 118 sites. Ten individual site nominations were also proposed.
