Cultural Resource Survey and Assessment of Proposed Valley Park Levee Alignment and Borrow Areas, St. Louis County, Missouri. St. Louis District Cultural Resource Management Report Number 10.
Abstract
An archaeological and historical survey of 80 acres of proposed levee and borrow pit tracts was performed in Valley Park, Missouri. The shovel probe/ pedestrian survey produced one previously unrecorded prehistoric archaeological site (23SL472) and two prehistoric isolated finds, one associated with a single historic Euro-American artifact. One previously recorded site (23SL230) was revisited and produced both prehistoric and historic Euro-American artifacts. Cultural/temporal affiliations could not be determined for the prehistoric components at 23SL230 and 23SL472. Cultural resources management recommendations advise limited subsurface testing of site 23SL230. While it appears that this site has suffered previous adverse impact because of nearby construction, emphasis is placed on ascertaining whether or not intact subsurface deposits exist.
