INTRODUCTION
This technical proposal is submitted in response to a request for
proposals from the City of Lubbock through the engineering firm of Freese and
Nichols, Inc. of Fort Worth to conduct archeological and historical inves-
tigations in the proposed Justiceburg Reservoir located in Garza and Kent
Counties, some 60 miles southeast of the City. As stipulated in the Scope of
Work, the proposal addresses Phase I of the project only; that is, the initial
survey and reconnaissance phase, which will be followed as necessary by
future, separately contracted, phases related to testing for National Register
eligibility and mitigation of adverse impacts to significant resources through
protection or data recovery.
The proposed investigations will include the normal services which may be
expected in conducting basic archeological research. Prewitt and Associates,
Inc. will provide the labor, materials and equipment necessary to conduct the
field investigations, laboratory analysis of the data and artifacts recovered,
and reporting the results of the investigations and analyses.
In addition to the technical proposal, an itemized Time and Materials
Cost Estimate has been prepared and enclosed which reflects our best estimate
of maximum costs likely to accrue in Phase I of the project. This cost esti-
mate should be considered our offer of a "not to exceed" figure for all work
required in Phase I; actual costs in any line or in total project costs may be
less.
The first section of the proposal, under the heading of Background and
Research Orientation, briefly discusses local historic and prehistoric
developments and specifies the important archeological and historical research
topics which may be addressed with data from the Justiceburg Reservoir. The
importance of this section lies in its relevance to the determination of
scientific and historical significance (and, therefore, National Register
eligibility), of cultural resources identified within the project area.
Under the next heading, Research Design and Scheduling, the organization
and scheduling of the work, as well as the specific methods to be used in
fieldwork, analysis, and reporting are discussed. Assuming a starting date of
about January 1, 1987, this section presents an organizational scheme which
will allow for production of a technical report of our findings, in draft
form, by December 15, 1987.
As will be discussed in the final section of the proposal, entitled Key
Personnel and Facilities, we will provide a versatile research team of proven
experience and competence in cultural resources investigations and assessment
in this region of Texas, and the facilities and support staff required to
achieve the results desired.
BACKGROUND AND RESEARCH ORIENTATION
The proposed reservoir waters will inundate those areas directly adjacent
to the Double.Mountain Fork of the Brazos River and its major tributaries near
3
the Garza -Kent County line. The project area lies at the eastern edge of the
Lower Plains cultural -geographical region of Texas, as outlined in the Texas
Historical Commission's statewide comprehensive planning document for cultural
resources (Brown et al. 1982:45). About 25 miles to the west, the caprock
escarpment marks the boundary between this zone of rolling plains and the
Llano Estacado district of the High Plains.
This region of the state is well-known for the occurence of archeological
sites including burned rock and shell middens and rock art sites of prehis-
toric to aboriginal historic age as well as historic dugout and house sites.
The region is also characterized by complex and poorly understood geomorpho-
logical processes which, in some cases, have resulted in site exposure and
destruction; in other cases, sites have been buried and thereby preserved. In
any case, the archeology of the project area cannot be fully understood with-
out an appreciation of past landforms and the geologic context of the archeo-
logical deposits.
Geomorphology
Bedrock exposed in the stream channels is primarily interbedded red
shales and sandstones of the Permian Quartermaster Formation, with shales and
sandstones of the Triassic Dockum Group underlying the rolling topography of
the uplands (Barnes, 1967). The more recent geologic history of the area
surrounding the proposed reservoir has not been studied in detail, but locally
extensive veneers of late Quaternary sediments resulting from fluvial, eolian,
and lacustrine processes have been documented by Caran and Baumgardner (1986)
in other parts of the Rollings Plains. Significantly, they observe that many
stream valleys have episodically aggraded considerable quantities of fluvial
and eolian sediment during culturally relevant times, even though they are now
undergoing extensive dissection. Preliminary review of literature and maps
indicates that a similar geomorphic history may apply for the Double Mountain
Fork of the Brazos and its major tributaries in the proposed reservoir area.
Prehistory
As of 1983 the computerized data base maintained by the Texas Historical
Commission contained records on 1,302 prehistoric archeological sites in the
Lower Plains region, which encompasses 37 counties, and 1,197 sites in the
31 -county High Plains region (Biesaart et al. 1985:76-77). These statistics
reflect a lack of systematic investigations and reporting rather than low
archeological site density. Even for the majority of recorded sites, minimal
information. is available. A limited number of locales have been scientifi-
cally studied or tested, and only a few sites have been subjected to intensive
excavation using techniques that can reveal important intrasite relationships.
The earliest archeological activity in the region occurred just to the
southwest of the Justiceburg Reservoir area along the Clear Fork of the Brazos
River. Starting in the late 1920s, Cyrus N. Ray (founder of the Texas Archeo-
logical Society) drew the attention of state and national scientific commu-
nities to prehistoric remains in the Abilene vicinity. Many well-known fig -
4
ures in Texas archeology became involved in aspects of the research, including
A.T. Jackson, Forrest Kirkland, E. B. Sayles, E. H. Sellards, Alex D. Krieger,
and J. Charles .Kelley (Wulfkuhle 1986:58). Unfortunately, these efforts did
not produce an organized body of information or a clear understanding of pre-
historic lifeways in this portion of the Lower Plains region, as demonstrated
by the continuing struggle of scholars to define it as a consistent archeolog-
ical unit (e.g., Sayles 1935; Krieger 1946; Suhm et al. 1954; Jelks et al.
1958; Thoms and Montgomery 1977). Little recent work had been done in the
upper Clear Fork Basin (Ray and Jelks 1964) until in the early 1970s when the
Office of the State Archeologist, Texas Historical Commission, conducted
several seasons of excavations at the Adair -Steadman Folsom Site in Fisher
County (Tunnell 1975) and carried out an archeological reconnaissance along
the Clear Fork in eastern Fisher and western Jones counties. Thirty-three
prehistoric sites were recorded, extensive artifact collections were
recovered, and a hearth feature at one site was excavated (Wulfkuhle 1986).
Directly south of the currently proposed project area three studies of
limited scope yielded small numbers of sites. Quinn and Holden (1949)
described caves and shelters in Dawson and Borden counties. In 1952 arche-
ological resources in the Colorado City (J. B. Thomas) Reservoir area were
appraised as part of the Smithsonian Institution River Basin Surveys (Jelks
1952). Additionally, seven sites were recorded in the Champion Creek Reser-
voir area of Mitchell County by the Texas Archeological Salvage Project of the
University of Texas at Austin for the National Park Service (Tunnell 1960).
In late 1966 and early 1967 the Office of the State Archeologist and
Southern Methodist University cooperated in a limited reconnaissance and
testing program in Crosby and Dickens counties, to the north of the Justice -
burg area. Of six sites involved, an occupation site and a burial were exca-
vated, and the other four sites were recorded in detail (Parsons 1967).
Amateur archeologists dug at the Bridwell Site in Crosby County over a period
of many years, beginning in 1952 (Parker 1982), and another Dickens County
burial was excavated in 1969 (Parsons et al. 1979).
A variety of federal government programs have added significantly to the
archeological site inventory of the part of the lower Plains region north and
east of the Justiceburg Reservoir area. In addition to earlier explorations,
(Suhm 1960;Jelks and Moorman 1953) more extensive surveys were necessitated by
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' natural salt pollution control projects in
the Red, Pease, Wichita, and Brazos river drainages. In 1972, 1977, and 1978
West Texas State University performed the contract work in the Truscott and
Crowell reservoir project areas of the Wichita River basin in Cottle, Foard,
King, and Knox counties. Of the 265 sites recorded most were collected, and
14 were tested (Hughes 1972; Etchieson et al. 1978, 1979). A preliminary
reconnaissance along tributaries of the Salt Fork of the Brazos, carried out
by Southern Methodist University in 1978, identified 30 sites (Skinner 1973).
A 25% sampling survey of this same project area in Kent, King, and Stonewall
counties was executed by Prewitt and Associates, Inc. in 1981, and 138 sites
were recorded (Thurmond et al. 1981).
In the more immediate area of the proposed reservoir project, a consid-
erable number of sites have been located by members of the South Plains
Archeological Society (SPAS). Limited data on 237 sites in Garza County,
compiled since the 1950s, have been submitted to the Texas Archeological
5
Research Laboratory of the University of Texas at Austin. A number of these
localities were excavated by the SPAS, including the Garza Site (Runkles
1964), the Lott Site, and a possible Jornada burial (Shedd 1968). A 1983
Texas Department of Highways and Public Transportation cultural resource
assessment of FM948 at the Salt Fork of the Brazos in Kent County resulted in
testing of 41KT32 (Denton 1983).
Two previous examinations of selected portions of the proposed Justice-
burg Reservoir project area itself have been performed. In 1975 the South
Plains Association of Governments (SPAG) contracted with the Department of
Anthropology of Texas Tech University "to obtain a sample assessment of the
prehistoric cultural resources in the S.P.A.G. area" (Campbell 1977:19).
Within a 110,000-acre section of Garza County, 145 sites were recorded.
Twelve were recommended for intensive surface collection, and one was judged
worthy of excavation. In 1982 a 12-day reconnaissance, sponsored by local
landowners, was carried out by Grand River Consultants, Inc. (Alexander 1982).
Twenty-three Garza County sites were recorded on site forms, and several
previously recorded sites were reevaluated. Two sites were selected for more
complete documentation.
Several excavations have been particularly important to the archeological
understanding of the area. On the eastern edge of the Southern High Plains,
just west of the proposed reservoir area, the Museum of Texas Tech University
has an ongoing interdisciplinary research program at the Lubbock Lake Site,
which was discovered in 1936 in Lubbock County. Since 1973 work at this well-
stratified, multicomponent locality has focused on "investigating the cultural
sequence represented at the site and, in particular, studying cultural adap-
tation to ecological changes" (Holliday et al. 1983:166). From 1950 to 1984,
117 radiocarbon determinations have been secured for the site (Holliday et al.
1985:290).
Several other major excavation projects, farther north from Justiceburg
area, are situated at the margin or east of the caprock escarpment. In Floyd
County the Floydada Country Club Site has undergone long-term study (Word
1963), and the Montgomery Site was completely salvaged in 1965 and 1977 (Word
1965; Northern 1979). In Briscoe County the Panhandle-Plains Historical
Museum conducted two seasons of excavations at the Lake Theo Folsom Site in
1977 (Harrison and Killen 1978).
Based on the findings of the investigations mentioned above, some obser-
vations concerning cultural patterns through time in the west-central portion
of the Lower Plains region can be offered. At the same time many avenues for
further research are suggested. The following discussion has been structured
according to four major cultural stages: Paleoindian, Archaic, Late Prehis-
toric. These summaries, as presented below, borrow heavily from Wulfkuhle
(1986).
Paleoindian
The first definitive evidence of man in the New World comes from late Ice
Age (Pleistocene) contexts. The traces of Early Man, while generally meager
and poorly preserved, are widely distributed across the North and South Amer -
6
ican continents "with an apparent concentration of sites on the High Plains of
North America" (Newcomb 1961:9). A full sequence of the Paleoindian stage has
been identified at the Lubbock Lake Site in Lubbock County. The earliest
human occupation -- Clovis -- occurs in Stratum 1, which has been dated to
11,100 B.P. The greatest concentrations of Early Man materials are found in
Stratum 2, with Folsom in Substratum 2A, dating 11,000 to about 10,000 B.P.;
Plainview at the contact between 2A and 2B; and Firstview in upper Substratum
B, dating 8500 to 6500 B.P. (Holliday et al. 1985:278-280).
Additionally, some indication of Paleoindian occupation was found at five
multicomponent sites in Garza County, identified by members of the South
Plains Archeological Society and at three localities in the Crowell Reservoir
area to the northeast (Etchieson et al. 1979). The Adair -Steadman Folsom Site
in Fisher County yielded a very extensive assemblage, including fluted points,
manufacturing debris, and a full array of other lithic tools that reflect
Folsom base camp utilized intensively over a long period of time (Tunnell
1975:3). At the Lake Theo Folsom Site in Briscoe County Folsom points and
butchering tools were found in association with a bone bed of Bison Antiquus.
Over one thousand years later a group of Plainview big game hunters again used
the site to kill and butcher giant bison (Harrison and Killen 1978:89).
Paleoindian cultures have been sterotyped as nomadic big -game hunting
adaptations. Clovis peoples have been depicted as pursuing now -extinct large
mammals such as mammoth, mastodon, and giant bison; Folsom and later groups,
as dependent on bison, elk, antelope, and deer. New evidence indicates that a
broader economic base, including hunting of various smaller animals, was
actually the rule (Johnson 1977:65). Early Man perhaps had a social organi-
zation and settlement pattern characterized by low group density, exploitation
of resources within a given territorial range, seasonal movement of bands from
one camp to another, and varying group size during times of drought or plenty
(Brown et al. 1982:43).
Archaic
The post -Pleistocene Archaic stage, from about 8500 to 1500 B.P. (7000
B.C. to A.D. 500), has been characterized as a long-lived nomadic foraging
adaptation to an essentially modern environment. Overall population increased
through time. Small migratory bands hunted deer and smaller animals and
gathered wild plants within territorial ranges. In many instances, trade
connections were established with distant areas. "These groups flourished for
thousands of years by adopting an economic structure based upon cultural -
ecological diversity rather than the specialization that is assumed to be
characteristic of Paleoindian and Late Prehistoric cultures" (Brown et al.
1982:43).
The Archaic is well represented in the region and sites dating to this
stage are conspicuous. Open campsites typically contain quantities of hearth
stones along with knapped stone debris and boiling stones. The tool kit con-
tains an abundance and diversity of chipped and ground stone and bone tools,
including a wide variety of stemmed dart points that exhibit a general trend
from basal- and corner -notched to side -notched styles, gravers, scrapers,
gouges, spoke-shaves, knives, axes, choppers, picks, drills, manos, abraders,
hammerstones, and polished ornaments.
Radiocarbon dates from the Lubbock Lake Site demonstrate its continued
use during the early Archaic. Strata 3 and 4, dating from 6500 to 4500 B.P.
(7000 to 5000 B.C.), contain Archaic cultural materials throughout (Holliday
et al. 1983:176). About 50% of the sites in the upper Clear Fork basin recon-
naissance yielded Archaic materials. The full span of the Archaic stage was
strongly manifested at two sites, early and late Archaic periods were well
represented at one site, and undifferentiated Archaic materials were recovered
from four sites (Wulfkuhle 1986:413). Two reliable radiocarbon dates,
obtained from the excavation of a hearth feature establish the affiliation of
this feature with a Late Prehistoric occupation. Furthermore, examination of
a number of local artifact collections revealed abundant diagnostics from all
subperiods of the Archaic.
Smithsonian River Basins surveys in Borden, Scurry, and Haskell counties
(Jelks 1952; Jelks and Moorman 1953) recorded about two dozen sites of Archaic
affiliation. No midden deposits were identified, and the sites were presumed
to represent short-term occupations by small groups. Scattered hearths, dart
point fragments, scrapers, flint debris, mussel shell, and bone fragments were
observed during both projects. The Haskell County survey also yielded drills,
blades, manos, metates, and two projectile points of the Nolan and Baird
(Tortugas) types, hinting of an early to middle Archaic occupation.
In the proposed Justiceburg Reservoir project area seven sites recorded
by Alexander (1982) were Archaic, with one falling into the early to middle
part of the period and another into the middle to late. , A middle Archaic
Travis dart point was recovered at one of the three sites assignable to the
Archaic stage in the Champion Creek Reservoir area of Mitchell County (Tunnell
1960). The most recent component of the Lake Theo Folsom Site in Briscoe
County was interpreted as the seasonal camp of late Archaic peoples (Harrison
and Killen 1978:89).
Surveys in the Natural Salt Pollution Control Project areas of Cottle,
Foard, Kent, King, Knox, and Stonewall counties consistently reported that the
dominant site types were small surficial scatters of lithic debitage and fire -
cracked rocks and open campsites covering relative small areas and exhibiting
very low density and limited range of cultural material. Features were
limited to rock -lined hearths and discard piles of exhausted boiling stones.
Etchieson et al. (1979) stated that in the Crowell Reservoir area all but two
sites with diagnostics had Archaic dart points that indicated occupations
during later Archaic substages. Thurmond et al. (1981:47) calculated that in
the Brazos River segment over 75 percent of the chronologically classifiable
components relate to the Archaic, most commonly the late subperiod. Two pos-
sible early Archaic dart points and one middle Archaic specimen were the only
exceptions.
Limited testing of 41KT32 in Kent County proved it to be a short-term
single component open campsite of late Archaic affiliation. Basal fragments
Of two small expanding -stemmed dart points were recovered (Denton 1983),
Garza County files at the Texas Archeological Research Laboratory show that 49
undifferentiated Archaic sites were recorded by the South Plains Archeological
Society. About half of these also have late Prehistoric components.
8
Late Prehistoric
During the Late Prehistoric period, beginning about 1500 B.P. (A.D. 500),
the total New World population was increasing, and a higher proportion of
people lived in more or less permanent villages. Agriculture, ceramics, and
the bow and arrow were introduced. In the archeological record of Texas, the
Late Prehistoric has been differentiated from the Archaic primarily by the
presence of pottery and small projectile (i.e., arrow) points. Apparently
bison hunting was very important in most regions of the state (Turner and
Hester 1985:52).
Although casual gardening or supplemental horticulture concurrent with
hunting and gathering may have been pursued in the area, the Archaic lifeway
probably persisted into Late prehistoric times with the addition of the bow
and arrow, a few other distinctive types of stone tools, and ceramics.
In general, Late Prehistoric sites are less prevalent and less conspic-
uous in the area. Seven sites in the upper Clear Fork basin reconnaissance
had Late Prehistoric components. While this stage was the dominant cultural
stage represented in the three cases studied (Wulfkuhle 1986:413), surveys in
the Natural Salt Pollution Control Project areas recorded only a few Late
Prehistoric sites in the Brazos River segment (Skinner 1973; Thurmond et al.
1981), and only scant evidence in the Wichita River portion (Etchieson et al.
1978, 1979). Only one site with a definite Late Prehistoric component was
recorded in the proposed Justiceburg Reservior project area by Alexander
(1982), but 80 of the sites identified in Garza County by the South Plains
Archeological Soceity had components attributable to the Late Prehistoric
period. A significant number of these yielded exotic stone, such as Alibates
agate, obsidian, and Tecovas jasper, as well as ceramic tradewares.
Holden (1929) visited at least one open campsite with arrow points and
pottery in Kent County during an early exploration. Probably similar open
campsites were recorded by Parsons (1967:94-95, 97) in Crosby and Dickens
counties. The Grape Creek Site and the Dockum Springs Site both yielded
unnotched and side -notched triangular arrow points and unidentified South-
western ceramic wares. In addition, distinctive scrapers and Scallorn and
Perdiz arrow points were found at the Dockum Springs Site, while single flakes
of Alibates agate and unsourced obsidian came from the Grape Creek Site.
Two burials of Late Prehistoric affiliation have been excavated -- a
possible Jornada grave in Garza County (Shedd 1968) and the Old Tom Burial in
Dickens County (Parsons et al. 1979). The latter was a slab -lined interment
with a Harrell arrow point, polished green stone atlatl weight (probably of
Gomez rhyolite from the Davis Mountains), and four conch shell pendants.
Another unique type of site has been briefly reported by Tunnell
(1978:44). Over 800 Edwards chert specimens, predominantly small blades along
with a single Perdiz arrow point, were excavated from a small pit near the
Salt Fork of the Brazos in Kent County. The small blades may have been
intended as preforms for Perdiz points, and a few distally trimmed pieces may
have served as scrapers.
9
Other sites of the stage include the Bridwell (Parker 1982) and Pete
Creek (Parsons 1967:8-79) sites in Crosby County; the Red Mud Site in Dickens
County (Parsons 1967:98); the Floydada Country Club (Word 1963) and Montgomery
(Word 1965; Northern 1979) sites in Floyd County; the Garza Site in Garza
County (Runkles 1964); the Slaton Dump (Brown 1972; Booker and Campbell 1978),
Johnson (Wheat 1955:73-74), and Lubbock Lake (Johnson et al. 1977) sites in
Lubbock County. These locales have been interpreted as semi-permanent,
seasonally occupied base camp sites, exhibiting no evidence of permanent
structures or horticultural activity, but geared primarily to hunting buffalo
and smaller game, and gathering and processing wild plant foods. Tool kits
include predominantly Harrell, Fresno, and Garza arrowpoints, beveled knives,
scrapers, and drills. Bone tools, shell ornaments, and trade objects from the
Southwest are present.
History
It is likely that the relative purity of the stream courses and springs
associated with the Double Mountain and North Forks together with the stra-
tegic location of Garza County relative to New Mexico and points east and
south, made the area something of a crossroads for Comanche populations
traveling from Mount Mucho-que and Grape Creek in present-day Borden County to
Yellowhouse Canyon on the north, the White River to the northeast, and the
fertile buffalo grounds in the vicinity of Double Mountain between present-day
Jayton and Aspermont. Simultaneously, the project area very likely was a
desirable trade route for Comancheros, Spanish, Mexican, and Pueblo Indian
natives of New Mexico who ventured onto the Texas plains after the Pecos Peace
of 1786 to trade with Comanches and Kiowa Apaches. Later, the area became
attractive to permanent settlement as the west Texas frontier was opened up.
Aboriginal Developments
The beginning date of the historic period varied from region to region
across Texas, but has been set, somewhat arbitrarily, as A.D. 1540 for the
Lower Plains region. The time of initial European contact with a given area
or group sometimes can be determined from accounts of early explorers or the
bureaucratic reports of missions and presidios. In archeological contexts
this period is signaled by the presence of items of European origin. The
early explorers left practically nothing among the Indians that could be
recovered by archeologists (Suhm et al. 1954:21) and probably did not signif-
icantly disturb the locations or lifeways of the various tribes that they
encountered (Skells 1972:4). "The overwhelmingly important result of Spanish
contact was the introduction of the horse. Introduced unintentionally in New
Mexico in the early seventeenth century and soon diffused throughout the west
(Newcomb 1961:86), the horse was responsible for a series of profound demo-
graphic and cultural changes among diverse aboriginal groups" (Brown et al.
1982:53)
During the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the Lipan Apache
and Comanche were driven south from the central plains. "The Lipan moved
about frequently, partly in search of food and partly because of pressure from
10
the Comanche. Like the Comanche, they often raided European settlements, kept
large herds of horses and hunted bison" (Suhm 1958:67).
The Comanche ranged over an enormous territory and continued to move
southward well into the nineteenth century. "The group identified as the
middle Comanches ranged generally from the headwaters of the Main, Double
Mountain, and Clear, Salt and Middle forks of the Brazos River" (Thurmond et
al. 1981:366). With horses and European guns the Comanches became skilled
bison hunters and notorious raiders and warriors (Suhm 1958:67). Detailed
descriptions of Lipan Apache and Comanche origins and lifeways and of the
historical events that involved these tribes have been presented by Newcomb
(1961:130-131, 155-191), John (1975), and Wallace and Hoebel (1952)..
Once trading posts and missions had been established, and a treaty had
been signed between the Comanche and New Mexican Spanish populations, the
Indians obtained greater quantities of European articles by trade, used them
in their villages, and placed them in graves (Suhm et al. 1954:21). Although
the Indians continued to make lithic implements for a time, "by the mid -
eighteenth century, stone tools give way to metal, and brass and iron points
replace those chipped from stone, ending an 11,000 -year tradition" (Turner and
Hester 1985:53). Skeels (1972:5) states, . , except for the earliest
travelers, few outsiders ever saw the Indians indigenous to Texas in their
'natural' state. Instead, when foreign settlement finally became permanent,
the Indian's way of life had been seriously disrupted by disease and above
all, by intruding hostile Indians from the north and east."
As in many other parts of Texas, archeological sites of protohistoric and
early historic ages in the Lower Plains are not well represented, or have not
been identified. Those that are known include campsites, burials, and rock
art localities. Six sites in Garza County, recorded by members of the South
Plains Archeological Society, were reported to contain historic aboriginal
materials, and Alexander (1982) identified one site in Garza County with a
possible historic component. The Pete Creek and Collett Springs sites in
Crosby County were thought to be winter hunting camps of early historic
eastern Plains Apache on the basis of Southwestern pottery sherds (Parsons
1967:79, 96). The historic component at the Bridwell Site in Crosby County
and a petroglyph panel at Cowhead Mesa in Garza County were believed to be of
Comanche affiliation. Burials excavated at the Lubbock Lake Site (Newcomb
1955), W. H. Watson Site in Fisher County (Ray and Jelks 1964), Morgan Jones
Site in Crosby County (Parsons 1967:80-93), and the Cogdell burial in Floyd
County (Word and Fox 1975) have all been attributed to the Comanche.
Nonaboriginal Developments
The existence of large aboriginal populations in West Texas delayed the
exploration and settlement of the area by Anglo populations until the middle
to late nineteenth century. Captain Randolph Marcy ventured near the project
area prior to the Civil War, but cattlemen stayed well to the east until the
mid 1870s after buffalo hunters had decimated the herds near Double Mountain
and Ranald Mackenzie defeated the Comanche in a series of campaigns between
1871 and 1874.
11
While there may have been some use of the project area by herds ranging
west from Kent, King, and Stonewall counties in the 1870s, temporary and/or
permanent settlement is not well documented until the major homesteading era
of the 1890s. From that point on, numerous families moved to claims along the
Double Mountain Fork, first excavating dugouts and then constructing more
substantial frame improvements. Typical of these families were those of T. E.
Payne, John Key, John S. Reed, J. C. Bargsley, and J. D. Justice, on whose
ranch the community of Justiceburg developed prior to 1910.
Ranching and farming remained the mainstays of economic life in the
project area until 1924 when Phelps, Caldwell, and Blackwell drilled the J. M.
Boren No. 1, Garza County's first oil well which was located about 3 miles
east of Justiceburg. Production from the well, and from subsequent ones in
the vicinity of the Double Mountain Fork, were not comparable to the large
production at Ranger, but it was sufficiently sizable to have an impact on the
local economy. While agriculture remained the mainstay of the project area,
the additional income from oil production provided a buffer which alleviated
some of the more extreme economic swings typical of a region plagued by
periodic, but severe, drought.
Research Questions
This section reviews important research questions identified within the
project area and the region. Some of these topics can be investigated using
survey data alone; most, however, are more appropriately addressed through a
combination of survey and excavation data. This means that many of these
questions must await later stages in the investigations of the project area
before they are thoroughly addressed. Of importance during Phase I is a
critical understanding and appreciation of these research topics leading to
informed assessment of the potential of archeological resources to provide
data pertinent to their solution. This is the ultimate rationale underlying
the National Register assessment process.
One of the most important topics of prehistoric research in this and most
other regions of Texas is that of chronology. Unlike most sites in the area,
the chronology at the Lubbock Lake site is well documented. While the Lubbock
Lake site is extremely important to our present understanding of developments,
will this chronology prevail for the area to the east of the caprock
escarpment in the Lower Plains? While we know the least about the Paleoindian
stage in the project area, the chronology of the Archaic in the entire region
is also very poorly understood.
The hypothesis has been advanced that the early portion of the Archaic
stage is sparsely represented in the Lower Plains region (Shafer 1976;
Etchieson et al. 1978, 1979; Thurmond et al. 1981), as it appears to be in the
Llano Estacado (Hughes 1976). However, this generalization does not apply to
the upper Clear Fork basin, as evidenced by numerous local artifact collec-
tions (Wulfkuhle 1986). Is the upper Clear Fork basin atypical in this regard
or could findings of previous archeological investigations be biased
due to heavy surface collection or other site destruction? Are Archaic sites
more systematically collected by amateurs? If so, special attention should be
directed to local and private collections in the area.
12
Other possible explanations for the dearth of components dating between
the late Pleistocene and the late Archaic might be related to deleterious
effects of the Altithermal climatic period that has been hypothesized for the
American Southwest and apparently was felt on the Llano Estacado to the west
(Thurmond et al. 1981:77). Dillehay (1974) has proposed a 2,500- to 3,500 -
year absence of buffalo from the Southern Plains from 8000-7000 B.P.
(6000-5000 B.C.) until 4500 B.P. (2500 B.C.), followed by a 3,000 -year pres-
ence from 4500 to 1500 B.P. (2500 B.C. to A.D. 500). Lynott (1979) has
questioned the applicability of Dillehay's model to the entire Southern
Plains. He argues that severe droughts, such as the hypothesized Altithermal,
would actually extend the area of short grass prairie and therefore augment
the preferred habitat of bison.
Several previously untyped arrow point styles and possibly a number of
graver forms were recognized in the inventory of the upper Clear Fork basin
reconnaissance, and they are believed to represent a region -specific Late
Prehistoric culture complex (Wulfkuhle 1986:432-434). Do examples of these or
other distinctive artifacts occur in the proposed Justiceburg Reservoir
project area? Can artifacts other than Garza arrow points (e.g., Lott points)
be related to protohistoric groups?
Only special attention to (1) sites dating to early and middle Archaic
times, (2) careful dating of components, and (3) faunal analysis will aid in
solving this problem. Probably the most important sites in regards to
establishment of precise chronology will be those which contain stratified,
superimposed, and undisturbed deposits. Sites of this type, while rare for
the area, may occur in alluvial or other late Pleistocene or Holocene deposits
since it is reasonable to assume that people were also making use of habitats
directly adjacent to, and potentially within the active depositional environ-
ment of a major spring -fed stream system such as the Double Mountain Fork and
Tributaries. Therefore, it is possible that records of prehistoric activity
are buried on previously existing land surfaces, or have been locally reworked
and incorporated into recent fluvial or eolian deposits. In the area of pro-
posed inundation, these deposits are not believed to be areally extensive, as
many appear to have been removed by recent erosion. Nevertheless, the poten-
tial occurence of buried archeological materials may be significant, and can
be adequately addressed by examining and working out in some detail the local
stratigraphic relationships between those preserved deposits from culturally
relevant time intervals. Indeed, without such as evaluation the importance of
this area to prehistoric peoples cannot be comprehensively assessed.
Another important research topic relates to paleoenvironments and their
exploitation by prehistoric inhabitants of the region. Will paleoenviron-
mental studies yet to be conducted at sites located east of the caprock
escarpment reveal conditions that contrast with the paleoenvironmental recon-
struction developed for the Lubbock Lake Site? It is possible that Paleo-
indian sites tend to cluster along the edge of the caprock escarpment where
springs were most abundant and a greater diversity of plant and animal
resources were accessible. In regard to the Adair -Steadman Folsom Site,
Tunnnell (1975:28) states, "It appears that the people who lived there were
making a specific tool kit for specific purposes and were rarely inclined to
improvise by utilizing fortuitous implements or lithic by-products. They were
not frugal with the lithic resources at this site, in contrast to what has
been observed elsewhere. . . . Perhaps the difference was the ready availa-
13
bility of high-quality lithic raw material in large quantity." Do lithic
assemblages from Paleoindian sites in areas of less plentiful stone sources
exhibit a greater percentage of expediency tools or reworked implements?
Archaic stage sites, particularly those dating to the late Archaic,
dominate the site inventories from the region. The quantities of burned rock
on these sites suggest specific adaptations. What are the reasons for their
abundance and what is the specific nature of this adaptation?
In an attempt to explain the paucity of recognized Late Prehistoric sites
in contrast to the abundance of late Archaic sites in the Lower Plains,
Etchieson et al. (1979:355) has proposed that a change occurred from small
local hunting and gathering groups to greater emphasis on migrations following
bison herds over wide geographic areas. Do tool kits and site distribution
support this idea?
Dillehay (1974) distinguishes a second period of bison absence from 1500
to 600-500 B.P. (A.D. 500 to 1200-1300), and Lynott (1979:99) concludes that
bison populations in the tall grass prairie of north -central Texas were rela-
tively small until late in the Late Prehistoric period (post A.D. 1200) and
even then did not equal the density of herds in the High Plains. Furthermore,
Gunnerson (1972) has suggested that the dramatic increase of bison numbers and
distribution on the Central and Southern Plains just prior to historic times
(post A.D. 1400) encouraged the southward movement of proto-Appachean peoples.
Will faunal samples recovered from sites in the Lower Plains support these
models?
Archeologists depend on comparisons of artifacts and artifact complexes
to derive theories of associations of prehistoric peoples in various regions
and relationships of cultural groups, one with another. These questions of
cultural affinity at various times in prehistory constitute one of the most
debated of topics in regional prehistory.
Findings of archeological investigations in the Brazos Natural Salt Pol-
lution Control Project area suggest strong similarities between that portion
of the Brazos River drainage and the northern portion of the Lower Plains, the
southern High Plains (Llano Estacado), and the Panhandle in general. The most
commonly encountered site type in all these locales is the typical Archaic
lithic scatter with rare diagnostics indicating primarily late Archaic associ-
ations (Thurmond et al. 1981:35-36). On the other hand, the upper Clear Fork
basin inventory, when supplemented by local artifact collections, shows strong
ties to central Texas throughout much of the Archaic period (Wulfkuhle
1986:441). Does some kind of divide in extraregional cultural influences
occur in this area of the Lower Plains region?
Etchieson et al. (1978:86) have proposed a comparative list of dart point
types for Central Texas and Rolling Plains Archaic sequences. Does this cor-
relation hold true for the entire Lower Plains region? Also, Etchieson et al.
(1978:88) suggest that gouges are diagnostic of the earlier segments of the
Archaic and that manos, knives, and scrapers predominate in the latter part of
the Archaic period. Thurmond et al. (1981:34) question this assumption in
light of an absence of early Archaic projectile point types. Furthermore,
although the gouge is a popular tool form in neighboring sections of the Lower
Plains region, this tool type appears to be relatively scarce in the upper
14
Clear Fork basin (Wulfkuhle 1986:436). Can study of the distribution, fre-
quency of occurrence, and evolution in form of gouges supply information on
localized subsistence patterns, intra- and extra -regional relationships, and
dating of tool kits?
Ray (1937:193) was convinced that the stone -slab cist graves, which he
found distributed for 60 miles north to south and 175 miles east to west along
branches of the Colorado and both the Clear and Salt forks of the Brazos
River, held the remains of very ancient man. Both flexed inhumations and
cremations occurred (Wulfkuhle 1986:82). Can these burials be related to the
Archaic stage?
In the upper Clear Fork basin during the Late Prehistoric stage, affilia-
tions appear to shift from Central Texas to the High Plains and the Southwest
(Wulfkuhle 1986:441). Are these same associations evident to the west in
Garza and Kent counties?
In regard to the Lower Plains region Krieger (1946:123-127) questioned
the validity of defining a cultural complex on the basis of pottery. He
considered ceramics only as a general indicator of a late horizon since
"sherds from at least four separate associations are present here: Henrietta
Focus, Austin Focus, Frankston Focus, and Pueblo. There appears to have been
no distinct local pottery." Does any distinct, consistent pattern now appear
to emerge in ceramics samples from the area?
Prewitt (1983:225-228) has proposed a northward to southward movement of
Austin and Toyah phases with an overlap period from about 700 to 550 B.P.
(A.D. 1250-1400). Do Late Prehistoric artifact assemblages from the
west -central Lower Plains area support this theory?
Because of its strategic location and availability of water, the project
area may be the location of numerous historic sites dating from the period of
European -Aboriginal contact to the era of early twentieth-century industrial
development. Recording and analysis of such sites could raise the following
questions: What is the earliest datable evidence of historical activity
and/or contact? Is there direct or indirect evidence of trade between Pueblo,
Spanish, and/or Mexican populations from New Mexico and Plains Indian popula-
tions in the vicinity of the project area? What impact did such contact have
on the aboriginal populations? Is there evidence of middle nineteenth-century
military activity?
The nineteenth-century Euro -American settlement of the area is not yet
well documented. Are any historic trails and associated structures located in
the project area? How early was the portion of the Double Mountain Fork
within the project area used by cattlemen? Is is possible to identify loca-
tions of semipermanent occupations (i.e., dugouts, cattle camps)? How do the
locations of such occupational areas compare with sites of equivalent age and
type recorded in Kent, King, and Stonewall counties?
At what point did permanent Anglo settlement occur? What forms did early
improvements take, and what were typical architectural and material culture
configurations? What accounted for the establishment of Justiceburg and what
impact did it have on the surrounding area? Is there a change in the material
15
culture at historic sites in the project area after the town was established
and the railroad constructed? Where were the locations of schools?
What relationships, if any, did the area have to larger population
centers such as Post, Snyder, and Lubbock? What impact did the development of
the oil industry have on the area in terms of economy and material culture;
did any specialized industrial communities develop, and if they did, how did
they impact older residential communities?
These and similar topics of research, both concerning prehistory and the
historic era, dominate and direct our inquiries in the region. The following
section discusses our proposed approach to Phase I of the project; .the impor-
tance of the above statements and questions will be discussed below in regards
to the means of assessing the archeological resources identified during Phase
I fieldwork.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND SCHEDULING
Several related but discrete tasks are required for Phase I. These
include an, archival search and compilation of data on known resources, inten-
sive pedestrian survey of approximatley 8,700 acres to be affected by the
reservoir project, subsurface reconnaissance of areas where there is a high
potential for buried cultural resources, and development of a plan for future
treatment of significant or potentially significant cultural resources to be
impacted by the proposed construction and inundation. These aspects of the
project, including scheduling, are discussed below. Specific time/task
allotments are directly reflected in the Cost Estimate which is enclosed
separately.
Archival Search and Data Compilation
A thorough literature and archival search will be conducted by the
Project Archeologist and Historian/Archivist during the months of January and
February 1987. The information search is expected to result in: (1) the
definition and recognition of natural environmental zones and specific key
environmental variables pertinent to an understanding of the cultural
resources present; and (2) and identification and assessment of data relating
to known prehistoric and historic resources, and (3) compilation of data for
assessing the potential for the existence of currently undocumented sites.
The ultimate goals of this prefield portion of the project are to provide
data necesary to: (1) locate or relocate any previously documented site or
resource during fieldwork, (2) understand the findings of the current project,
(3) integrate these findings with those from surrounding regions, and (4)
discuss current regional cultural problems in terms of the new data obtained.
The Project Archeologist will gather data concerning area prehistory and
the environment. Environmental data will be sufficient to (1) describe the
project area in terms consistent with the existing literature, (2) develop
environmentally meaningful land -use models, and (3) address the major problems
16
listed within this proposal, particularly subsistence orientation and season-
ality.
Prehistoric cultural data will be gathered from both primary sources and
existing research. The review of existing research will be extensive in
scope. Primary sources will include the documentation and artifacts from
previous reservoir surveys (where available), county and reservoir files of
the Texas Archeological Research Laboratory, The University of Texas at
Austin, and the Texas Historical Commission. Other written sources and local
informants located near the project will be actively sought during the pre -
field stage of the proposed investigations.
The historical research will include: (1) identification of the aborig-
inal, Spanish, Mexican, and Anglo populations which may have been present
within the area and definition of their interactions, (2) the historical
settlement and development of project lands and (3) a summary which will pro-
vide background data and interpretive information.
Emphasis will be placed on interaction among the various historic groups
which were present in or which settled in the area, and on the development and
major shifts of economic pursuit. Historic information gathered from primary
documentation will emphasize land use and ownership within the project area
and the history of specific sites. Such data will incorporate county records,
such as deeds and -probates, as well as other records from at least the
following sources:
Texas State Library/Archives, Austin
Barker Texas History Center, UT -Austin
Texas Historical Commission, Austin
General Land Office, Austin
Texas Natural Resources Information System, Austin
Texas Archeological Research Laboratory, UT -Austin
Southwest Collection, Texas Tech University
Panhandle -Plains Historical Museum (Library), Canyon
Garza County Courthouse
Kent County Courthouse
The Project Archeologist and Project Historian will fully utilize
existing research -- including published and unpublished scholarly manu-
scripts, reports, books, journals, theses and dissertations -- as well as
pertinent maps, records and local informants. In addition to a files and data
search, consultation will be undertaken with knowledgeable local informants
and qualified professionals who have expertise in the project area. All
sources consulted during the search will be listed according to the Council of
Texas Archeologists guidelines (1984) bibliographic format.
Intensive Pedestrian Survey
Approximately 8,700 acres of the Reservoir will be subjected to intensive
pedestrian survey and assessment. Architectural, historic and prehistoric
resources will be recorded and assessed. The objectives are:
17
(1) to relocate known sites;
(2) to locate unknown surface and subsurface sites;
(3) to determine site depth and boundaries as accurately as possible;
(4) to gather data concerning site function and cultural affiliation
whenever supporting evidence is present; and
(5) to make assessments, evaluations and recommendations for each re-
source with regard to future scientific research and envisioned
impact due to project plans.
The survey will be conducted during the months of March, April, and May,
1987. Our level of effort for this fieldwork is based on survey of about 20
acres per person per day by the seven -person field crew. This means that
appropriately 60 work days are required to complete the survey. If this
calculation proves to be inaccurate, cost savings will be passed on to the
City.
For the proposed work, cultural resources are defined as any building,
site, district, structure, object, data or other material significant in
history, architecture, science, archeology or culture. Historic materials
less than 40 years old which are not archeologically significant will be noted
but will not be treated as potentially National Register eligible cultural
resources.
The intensive survey will be accomplished by a crew of six crewmembers
supervised by the Project Archeologist and spaced no more than 20 meters
apart. High site probability areas, being confined to stream valleys, are
essentially linear in nature. Microtopographic features are expected to be
numerous. For these reasons, strict transects will not be used. Crew members
will be spaced to assure coverage of all stream valley components (stream
bank, floodplain, lower valley wall, upper valley wall) and specific topo-
graphic or other features. Small and/or linear disturbances (roads, pipe-
lines, etc.) also are not ideal for strict transect coverage and these areas
will be intensively examined according to their nature. Low site probability
areas and extensive disturbances will be examined using evenly spaced parallel
transects.
Historic sites and standing structures will also be documented during the
archeological survey. The location and recording of historic sites will be
accomplished by the survey crew, but the results of the survey will be
reviewed by a qualified historian or architectural historian, who will inte-
grate the findings with data recovered during the information search. The
historic study will have the following objectives (as well as those outlined
in the literature search described above):
(1) to review all historic and architectural sites located during the
course of field investigations (in addition to archeological site data, his-
torical and architectural site data will be recorded in detail);
(2) to locate areas which potentially could have served as resource pro-
curement areas during the historic use and/or occupation of the area (e.g.,
springs and watering holes);
(3) to field -check and document historic sites and resources which are
identified during the records review; and
18
(4) to assess each resource in terms of all four National Register of
Historic Places criteria and make recommendations accordingly.
We believe that nonaboriginal historic remains are frequently slighted by
archeologists. In our opinion, therefore, a thorough survey and assessment is
necessary in order to reconstruct the past history and events of an area.
Recording Procedures
The maintenance of careful field records will be an important concern.
State of Texas survey forms will be used to record all cultural resources.
Each recorded site will be assigned a unique trinomial number designated by
the Texas Archeological Research Laboratory, The University of Texas at
Austin, and will be precisely located on USGS 7.5' topographic sheets. Other
locational data will include written descriptions and UTM point coordinates.
Brunton compass paced maps will be made for each site investigated and will
provide data concerning specific environmental features, the kinds and dis-
tribution of cultural resources, and locate shovel tests and areas of unusual
survey coverage. Once the survey is completed, the survey unit forms will
provide a detailed information base for environmental reconstruction, as an
aid in management of the survey area, and in data manipulations.
A daily journal summarizing all project activities and field management
concerns will be maintained by the Project Archeologist. A thorough photo-
graphic record (black and white prints and color slides) will be obtained
during the course of the project. Identified cultural resources, defined
environmental features, the condition of the project area and field procedures
and methods will be documented in this manner. A detailed photographic log
will be maintained with the date, location, vantage point and general des-
cription of each photograph taken.
Testing Procedures
Shovel testing will be an integral part of survey procedures. As an aid
to site location, this minimal testing will be conducted: (1) within all high
site probability areas (natural rises, etc.) where no cultural materials are
noted from a surface examination; (2) within all areas where the ground
surface is totally obscured, and will be spaced at regular intervals not to
exceed 25 meters. As part of site assessments, shovel testing will be
conducted at all previously known and newly identified sites (except where
critical assessment factors are known or can be inferred from existing natural
or other exposures).
The number of tests excavated within a specific survey area or site area
will be the minimum number which satisfies locational and assessment needs.
Although testing is a necessary part of the proposed work, the number of tests
needed and their locations are field decisions.
The proposed tests will consist of approximately 25x25 -centimeter shovel
probes excavated in 10 -centimeter arbitrary levels. All matrix will either be
19
screened through one -quarter -inch mesh screen or will be examined by
troweling. All recovered cultural materials will be placed in bags with
appropriate provenience data and will be retained for analysis. Profiles
denoting major natural and/or cultural stratigraphy will be drawn and findings
described for each test. A noncorrosive, obviously modern artifact will be
placed at the bottom of each excavated test to mark its location.
Collection Procedures
The collection of surface artifacts is not expected to be a routine
survey procedure. The results of previous surveys indicate that surficially
exposed prehistoric cultural materials are few in number. All kinds of cul-
tural materials will be collected only from sites which are severely disturb-
ed. Collection will be viewed as a salvage operation so that the least amount
of information will be lost until appropriate mitigation or management.
Only potentially diagnostic cultural materials (i.e., specific lithic
tools, bone epipheses, ceramics, cores, intrusives, etc.) and fragile items
(i.e., human skeletal material, etc.) will be collected from other sites.
Preliminary Geomorphological Fieldwork
A preliminary geomorphological field study will be conducted by the
geomorphologist during the field survey. Approximatley one, week of fieldwork
is estimated for this aspect of the project. The area of the proposed
Justiceburg Reservoir potentially incorporates geological deposits in which
buried archeological remains occur. The discovery of such sites is necessary
in order to fully inventory the cultural resources of the area, but a compre-
hensive methodology for discovering such sites requires that preliminary field
assessment of the potential for the existence of such sites be conducted.
Therefore, it is herein proposed that only the potential for buried sites be
ascertained during Phase I and that the conduct of subsurface reconnaissance
(that is, deep mechanical testing) for sites in areas of high potential, if
any, follow in Phase II.
The first step in such a strategy is to consult available maps, litera-
ture, and aerial photographs of the area to determine the general character of
fluvial and aeolian deposits. These general characteristics allow identifi-
cation of areas in need of field inspection. Field inspection will consist of
examination of fluvial and aeolian deposits to detemine their form, whether
they are of culturally -relevant age, and whether cultural materials are
present within them. The age of deposits cannot be determined precisely from
inspection, but such characteristics as color, cohesiveness, soil development,
extent of mineralization, and content (fossils, artifacts) can be used to
distinguish, minimally, general age categories as, too recent to be relevant,
probably of culturally relevant age, or too ancient to be relevant. Also to
be observed in the preliminary inspection is the form of deposits; that is,
dunes, levees, pointbars, or whatever. This produces the data necessary to
map those areas where deposits of a particular kind have the potential. of
containing buried cultural evidence.
once this data base is established, a more specific plan for investi-
gating this potential can be developed. Generally, such a strategy involves
using power equipment, such as a backhoe, to open limited inspection trenches
in the highest probability areas followed by recording of the nature of the
deposits and any included cultural remains. When completed, this information
may be mapped to indicate where buried sites are present and usually something
about the characteristics of the site and its geological setting. In aggre-
gate, this information permits construction of sequences of cultural as well
as environmental data from which interpretations of past human adaptations may
be drawn.
Because buried sites often contain more complete assemblages than sites
exposed at the surface and because sites in places of active geological depo-
sition are generally well -stratified, reconnaissance for and investigation of
buried sites is recognized as an important part of archeological inquiry.
However, we stress that approaching this aspect of the investigation in two
separate stages, as proposed above, is the most cost effective because it
limits use of costly mechanical testing to the highest probability areas.
Laboratory and Analysis Procedures
While some laboratory activity may coincide with fieldwork, most of this
part of the project will follow fieldwork. Thus, the months of June through
November will be devoted to laboratory analysis and report preparation.
Upon receiving the artifacts and other materials collected during the
survey at the facilities of Prewitt and Associates, the materials will be
analyzed in the following manner. Each bag will be logged in and given a lot
number. The materials will be washed, labeled, inventoried and catalogued.
Analysts (Project Archeologists and/or various specialists) will then conduct
in-depth analyses of the materials. The methods used to conduct the analysis
will be described in the draft and final reports, as well as a description of
the artifacts, the results, and an interpretation of the results in light of
the problems presented in the research design.
The analysis of recovered materials will be conducted in such a way as to
ensure that the goals set forth in the previous sections of this proposal are
reached. The materials will be studied in terms of scientific data; comple-
mentary to this, they will be studied and evaluated to determine the signifi-
cance of each resource. The various material types will be studied in differ-
ent manners and in such a way as is in keeping with the current methods of
analysis in archeology.
Lithic Materials
Lithic materials will be examined for tool morphology, method of manu-
facture, and type of material. A combination of descriptive forms and recog-
nized types will be used to define tool variability. Many lithic tools are
expected to be diagnostic of site function and/or age. Methods of tool manu-
facture will also be described.
21
Analysis may concern site activity, methods of tool manufacture, and
possibly the intensity of site occupation or utilization (small scatter as
compared to extensive deposits).
The nature and possible sources of lithic materials will be investigated.
The identification of "local" lithic sources and "intrusive" materials will be
of particular importance to the analysis.
Ceramic Materials
Aboriginal ceramic materials will be examined for vessel form and design
characteristics, clay body characteristics, and mineral and organic content of
nonplastic inclusions. Ceramics are often excellent indicators of the extent
of cultural contact, the local adaptations of particular traditions and var-
ious wares, and the extent of local exploitation of resources. Locally
available materials identified in the paste may suggest local adaptations,
whereas exotic materials may suggest trade.
Faunal Materials
Faunal materials recovered will be identified to the species level when-
ever possible. Faunal remains are frequently useful indicators of seasonal
usage of sites, as well as resource orientation. Analyses of these remains
are expected to play an important role in understanding prehistoric adaptation
within the project area.
Historic Materials
Glass, metal and other materials such as leather and plastic will be
examined in detail similar to the prehistoric materials. For example, glass
will be categorized according to physical characteristics, particularly min-
eral contents or treatment such as manganese, selenite, unbleached and so
forth. Glass and other historic artifacts can often be dated by the method of
manufacture or other characteristics. It is expected that these types of
information will aid considerably in the interpretations of historic occupa-
tions in the project area.
Summary
The importance of artifact analysis is not merely object identification
or the compilation of catalog lists; rather, it is to interpret the ranges of
human activities as suggested by the kinds, relative placement within a site,
and frequency of occurrence of these objects in a given location in time and
space. For the present contract, we hope to define, through analysis of col-
lected and observed materials, the range of variability within the study area.
22
Without these data, determination of significance cannot be made with reason-
able conviction.
Assessment of Site Data
During the course of post -fieldwork activities, an assessment of site and
project information will be made which will include the following objectives.
Each site will be evaluated based upon available evidence for significance
according to criteria established for nomination to the National Register of
Historic Places (36CFR60). In instances where definitive statements of
significance cannot be made, the potential significance of the resource will
be stated. Definitive statements will be made for each resource when field
testing is deemed unnecessary. When further investigation is necessary to
determine significance, a brief statement of what is known will be made and an
explanation of why further work is necessary will be given.
Implicit in an assessment is a discussion of why particular resources or
data derived from a resource are of value. This discussion will consider the
value of each site as a unique entity, as compared to other sites of the same
age, function and complexity, and the manner in which it contributes to the
understanding of and increases knowledge about the region as a whole. In the
case of archeological resources, the potential for scientific data relevant to
regional research problems, as discussed in the first section of the proposal,
is of paramont importance.
Environmental data collected during the course of the data acquisition
phase will be incorporated into the body of the evaluatory criteria. Assess-
ment must take into account various environmental factors (the more obvious
being topographic setting, availability of food, potable water, and raw
materials, and seasonal changes in water supply such as flooding or drought
which may influence the potential and significance of the site). The
resources will be assessed on the basis of their research potential and
archeological and historical significance.
Evaluation of Sites
Based on the assessment outlined above, each resource will be evaluated
within the perspective of the project and will be assessed with regard to the
degree of impact (if any) which the project is expected to have upon it.
Recommendations for data recovery (mitigation) and suggested alternatives will
be made in accordance with the amount of impact, whether direct or indirect.
The major objective in evaluation of impact and recommendations for miti-
gation is preservation of a resource whenever possible. Large-scale testing
and excavation (data recovery) are regarded as final alternatives of
mitigation in the management of cultural resources.
This procedure will eventually lead, after the completion of any testing
necessary in Phase II of the project, to the development of a Treatment Plan
which identifies the needs and mechanisms for resource protection, or the
23
retrival of important scientific data through excavation. The success of this
plan depends in large part on the quality of data considered; that is, on the
thoroughness of Phase I and Phase II data collection and the care and profes-
sional judgement devoted to initial assessments.
Reporting
Two types of reports will be prepared: monthly progress reports and a
technical report. A monthly progress report detailing project activities and
accomplishments will be prepared at the end of each month during the project
and submitted to the City by the 15th of the following month.
The technical report will be prepared as a volume in our Reports of
Investigations series. The draft technical report will be a comprehensive
report of findings for work accomplished under this contract. The draft
technical report will include all tables and figures, as well as textual mate-
rial. The report and all references cited will be presented according to the
Council of Texas Archeologists guidelines. Report sections and/or topics will
include at least the following:
1. Title page with the title of the report, contracting party, contract
number, the name and title of the Principal Investigators) and
authors of the report.
2. Abstract.
3. Introduction with a statement of purpose, brief description of the
project area, and the nature of the work performed.

changes and comments made during the review of the draft report. The report
will meet current professional standards (including the Council of Texas
Archeologists Performance Guidelines and those established by the Department
of the Interior 36 CFR 800, and 36 CFR 60) and be suitable for publication.
It will follow the format used for the Reports of Investigations series
24
published by Prewitt and Associates, Inc. which is typed, numbered, single-
spaced pages on standard size (8x11 -inch) white bond paper. The final report
original and 100 bound copies will be submitted to the Engineer or City.
Curation
Our firm has been provided with an open letter from the Texas Archeolog-
ical Research Laboratory (TARL) stating that curation facilities will be
provided for all collections and related documentation recovered or generated
during the course of archeological projects. However, specific arrangements
are required for each individual project, and a copy of our letter requesting
a curation agreement for this project is attached (Attachment A).

bilities of the Principal Investigator. A general division of effort is pro-
posed in which Mr. Prewitt, as president of the firm, will ensure overall
coordination and quality of work at no direct cost to the project. Dr.
Driskell, as general manager of the firm, will be primarily responsible for
management decisions while Dr. Creel, who will also serve as Project
Archeologist, will be responsible for day-to-day field and laboratory
supervision.
Elton R. Prewitt will provide technical assistance and advice as
necessary to further the aims of the project. Mr. Prewitt received a B.A.
degree in Anthropology from The University of Texas at Austin in 1974 and was
awarded an M.A. degree in Geography in August 1983. He has over 20 years of
intensive archeological experience involving planning, fieldwork, and research
in Texas and adjacent areas. He has authored or coauthored more than 35
professional papers and archeological reports. Mr. Prewitt has also served as
a lecturer at The University of Texas at Austin on the archeology of the Texas
area. His areas of special interest and expertise include an in-depth know-
ledge of the prehistoric cultures of Texas and adjacent areas, remote sensing
of archeological data, prehistoric chronologies, projectile point morphology,
and prehistoric cemetery practices in Central Texas. Of particular relevance
to this project is Mr. Prewitt's experience as Principal Investigator on many
of the projects undertaken by this firm. In this capacity, he has guided
numerous projects, several of which have been in the region.
Dr. Boyce N. Driskell will serve as the Co -Principal Investigator pri-
marily responsible for ongoing management, staff assignment, and staff super-
vision. Dr. Driskell, who received his doctorate in Anthropology from the
University of Kentucky in 1984, has almost 20 years experience in southeastern
U.S, archeology with other field experience in the Yucatan, Arizona, and the
Nile Valley. Dr. Driskell is the author or coauthor of numerous technical
reports in the area of cultural resource management and has served as the
contract archeologist/administrator for the contract archeology program at the
University of Kentucky. His interests include lithic technology, spatial
analysis, and the analysis of surficial -and disturbed lithic scatters. Dr.
Driskell is also an expert in the microscopic analysis and interpretation of
use -wear damage and polish on lithic tools.
Dr. Darrell Creel will serve as the Co -Principal Investigator responsible
for the technical and scientific aspects of the work proposed here. As such,
Dr. Creel will serve as Project Archeologist in a full-time capacity for
periods of active field and laboratory work, and he will be the principal
author of the final report.
Dr. Creel received the B.A. and M.A. degrees from The University of Texas
at Austin while his doctorate was awarded in 1986 from the University of
Arizona. His areal research interests include the prehistory of west and
northwest Texas and the Southern Plains, and his dissertation describes his
work with burned rock middens in west central Texas. Of particular pertinence
to the proposed work, Dr. Creel has most of his field experience in the region
26
and has also had considerable experience in the compilation and assessment of
extant archeological records such as those currently available from the
Justiceburg Reservoir.
Historian/Archivist
Two persons are identified here for various kinds of historical and
documents research, including archival, informant, analysis, and report
preparation. These individuals include Martha Doty Freeman who regularly
works for Prewitt and Associates, Inc. in a consulting capacity, and Ms.
Roberta Speer, Supervisor of the Archeological Research Laboratory at West
Texas State University.
Ms. Freeman is a principal of Walker, Doty and Freeman, Austin, Texas.
She received a B.A. in American Studies, magna cum laude, from Lawrence
University, Wisconsin in 1969 and was awarded an M.A. degree in American
Studies by The University of Texas at Austin in 1971. She has been a Fellow
of the Newberry Library in Chicago and a Fellow in American Studies to the
archeological projects in New Mexico, Texas, Colorado, and Missouri. Ms.
Freeman has authored or coauthored over 60 reports and articles in the past 12
years.
Ms. Speer recieved a degree in Vertebrate Zoology from Berkeley followed
by a graduate degree in Geology from West Texas State University. She has
been active in Texas archeology for many years and is a member of the Council
of Texas Archeologists. Ms. Speer will focus on compilation of existing
archeological records and field evaluations of historic resources.
Freeman and Speer will share efforts identified in the Cost Estimate as a
single line item as appropriate to the needs of the project.
Historical Architect
While this position is not specified in our cost estimate, it is possible
that standing structures will be encountered during work which require assess-
ment. If the need arises, an historical architect, Joseph C. Freeman, is
available to provide expertise in this field.
Mr. Freeman was awarded the degree of Bachelor of Architecture, cum
laude, by The University of Texas at Austin in 1971. A principal in the firm
of Walker, Doty, and Freeman, Austin, Texas, he has completed numerous
projects in Texas and New Mexico.
Geomorphologist
Two persons, Dr. Michael B. Collins and Mr. Mike Blum, will share
responsibilities of geomorphologist for the project.
27
Dr. Michael B. Collins, Senior Staff Archeologist for this firm, will
serve as the Senior Geomorphologist on the project. As such, Dr. Collins will
be responsible for the overall scientific quality of this aspect of the work
as well as recommendations for any future needs in this area.
Dr. Collins was awarded the B.A. and M.A. degrees in Anthropology by The
University of Texas at Austin in 1965 and 1968, respectively. His Ph.D.
degree in Anthropology was awarded by the University of Arizona in 1974. Dr.
Collins has over 25 years of archeological experience in Texas and the south-
western United States, Kentucky, and other portions of the southeastern United
States, Israel, France, Honduras, and Chile. He has authored or coauthored
over 60 technical reports, monographs, and articles, His areas of expertise
include such diverse topics as lithic analysis, osteology, and geoarcheology.
His pioneering efforts on the latter topic began in Kentucky and are now
directed toward projects in Texas. Recent and current work at Waco Lake, the
Richland -Chambers project, and Lake Joe Pool in Texas and the Monte Verde Site
in southern Chile are producing significant results in interpretation and
economy of investigation. Dr. Collins served as Associate Professor and
Director of the Program in Cultural Resources Management at the University of
Kentucky before returning to Texas.
Mr. Blum, currently a graduate student in Geography at The University of
Texas at Austin, will be responsible for most of the fieldwork required during
Phase I as well as any reports neccessary on this aspect of the project. He
will work under the direct supervision of Dr. Collins and the Project
Archeologist.
Laboratory Supervisor
Mr. Ross Fields, Research and Laboratory Director for this firm, will
coordinate laboratory preparation and analysis at no direct cost to the
project. He received his B.A. in Anthropology in 1975 and his M.A. in
Anthropology in 1981 from The University of Texas at Austin. He has had a
variety of survey and excavation experience in Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado,
Alaska, Arizona, and Utah. During 1982 he served as Co -Principal Investigator
for a major excavation project in El Paso, Texas, conducted by our firm for
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Albuquerque District. Since assuming the
duties of Research and Laboratory Director for this firm in 1982, he has been
involved in proposal writing, project management and supervision, and report
editing. In this capacity, he has served as Principal Investigator for or has
been otherwise involved in a number of project in Texas. His primary area of
interest and specialization is the Caddoan archeology of Texas, but he
maintains a secondary interest in other areas of Texas prehistory.
Consultants and Specialized Services
Dr. Jack Hughes, Research Professor of Anthropology and Director of the
Archeological Research Laboratory at West Texas State University, has
consented to be a consultant, as necessary, on prehistoric material culture of
the Justiceburg Reservoir. Dr. Hughes has spent many years working in this
33
area and is an acknowledged expert on the archeology of this part of Texas.
Dr. Hughes' participation will be at no direct cost to the project.
The firm maintains contacts and standing agreements with several special-
ists including faunal analysts, ethnobotanists, geologists, and osteologists.
Of pertinence to Phase I of the project is the analysis of faunal remains and
possibly human skeletal remains. Normally, these can be sorted and catelogued
by Dr. M. B. Collins or other members of our staff who have training in faunal
identification and human osteology, but some specimens may require additional
expertise. For this we would normally consult Dr. Gentry Steele, Mr. James B.
Vanderhill or Dr. Raymond Neck (vitae not included). A single line for Faunal
Analyst is presented in the Cost Estimate to cover any costs of these
consultants.
Dr. Steele, who is currently Professor of Anthropology and Head of the
Zooarcheology and the Bioanthropology Laboratories at Texas A&M University,
maintains research interests in human osteology and analysis of prehistoric
populations. Dr. Steele is the author or coauthor of 2 books and nearly 40
articles.
Dr. Steele's Bioanthropology Laboratory provides facilities for
undergraduate and graduate training and research in human skeletal biology,
forensic osteology, and primate anatomy. Dr. Steele's second interest is in
the analysis of faunal remains associated with archeological sites including
analysis of late Pleistocene and early Holocene fauna from Texas. The
laboratory includes a rapidly expanding comparative faunal collection,
microscopes, and facilities for the preparation of microscopic slides of bones
and teeth.
Mr. Vanderhill received a B.S. degree in biological sciences from Florida
State University in 1978 and an M.S. degree in geology from the University of
Nebraska at Lincoln in 1980. He is currently a Ph.D. candidate in the
Department of Geological Sciences at The University of Texas at Austin. Mr.
Vanderhill has participated in a variety of geological and paleontological
studies in the United States. He has served as Faunal Analyst on other recent
projects undertaken by Prewitt and Assciates, Inc.
Some analysis of archeological shell may also be required. The
individual to serve in this capacity is -Dr. Raymond Neck of the Texas Parks
and Wildlife Department. Dr. Neck is a recognized Malacologist and authority
on modern and prehistoric snail populations in Texas. Dr. Neck has served in
this capacity on other projects for Prewitt and Associates, Inc.
Should we secure samples for age determinations, we normally submit these
to Alpha/Beta Analytic, Inc., located in Coral Gables, Florida. This is a
private laboratory which commonly processes our thermoluminescence and
radiocarbon samples. The firm has the ability to provide rapid results, a
service essential to the timely completion of a research program such as this.
The company has an excellent reputation for accuracy in dating and is
continually refining their techniques. The laboratory has the capability to
process extremely small amounts (a few milligrams) of carbon.
Services also are procured at times from the Radiocarbon Dating
Laboratory, The University of Texas at Austin or from the Department of
29
Geosciences Research Laboratories at the University of Arizona, Tucson.
Special considerations at the time of submission enter into the decision as to
the appropriateness of any particular laboratory.
CONCLUSION
In summary, Prewitt and Associates, Inc. proposes to conduct Phase I of
the cultural resources investigation of the proposed Justiceburg Reservoir in
a timely and cost-efficient manner. The proposed professional and support
personnel are highly experienced in this type of work and present individual
and joint qualifications which exceed the federal and state requirements for
the work.
Prewitt and Associates, Inc. will obtain all necessary permits pertinent
to the cultural resources survey prior to fieldwork. No action will be taken
which indicates the location of any cultural resource. No statements will be
publicly made concerning the proposed investigations and all inquiries will be
directed to Freese and Nickols or the City of Lubbock. Coordination of work
will be maintained at all times with the Engineer and the City, and we will
fully cooperate with Dr. William Mayer -Oakes, technical advisor for the
project. No materials gathered will be released or published prior to the
final acceptance of the report by the City.

CONTRACTOR CAPABILITIES AND FACILITIES
Organizational Background
The firm of Prewitt and Associates, Inc. is a woman -owned small business
incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas. Principals in the firm
include Elton R. Prewitt, President, Kerza A. Prewitt, Vice -President, and
Linda A. Nance, Secretary -Treasurer. The firm is wholly owned by the
principals, is not an affiliate of another firm, and has no subsidiary
affiliates.
In addition to the officers of the Company, permanent administrative
staff includes Dr. Boyce Driskell, General Manager; and Mr. Ross Fields,
Research and Laboratory Director. The full-time professional staff at Prewitt
and Associates includes Dr. Michael B. Collins as Senior Staff Archeologist, 5
staff archeologists with graduate degrees, and 4 archeologists working in
junior positions.
Founded in April 1979, Prewitt and Associates, Inc. offers a variety of
archeological services ranging from small inventory projects such as recon-
naissance surveys to full-scale data recovery excavations. The firm is
versatile and is structured to accommodate a wide range of archeological
needs. Embracing an interdisciplinary approach, the firm has specialists
available to fulfill specific needs in related fields.
The company subscribes to the professional and ethical standards of the
Society of Professional Archeologists (SOPA) and various staff members and
associates are qualified in several areas of emphasis. We have extensive
experience working with cultural resource management laws and regulations
mandated by the federal government and the State of Texas. This experience
includes work with National Register of Historic Places nominations and sur-
veys, granting procedures, review and compliance, and other aspects of the
federal and state programs. We are familiar with the requirements of the
National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (P.L. 89-665), as amended by P.L.
91-243, P.L. 93-54, P.L. 94-422, P.L. 94-458, P.L. 96-199, P.L. 96-244, and
P.L. 96-515; Executive Order 11593, Protection and Enhancement of the Cultural
Environment (September 1971); the Archeological and Historic Preservation Act
of 1974 (P.L. 93-291); the Antiquities Code of Texas (Texas Natural Resources
Code of 1977, Title 9, Chapter 191); and other laws and requirements.
The President and staff of Prewitt and Associates bring over 200 years of
archeological and cultural resource management experience to the firm. Work
in all areas of Texas and adjacent states provides the firm with a unique
complex of background and experience. Staff experience includes work with or
for the Texas Archeological Survey, Texas Department of Highways and Public
Transportation Archeology Program, Office of the State Archeologist, National
Register Program and Texas Heritage Conservation Plan of the Texas Historical
Commission, the Texas Archeological Research Laboratory of The University of
Texas at Austin, Southern Methodist University, the University of Kentucky,
the University of Alabama, the National Park Service, the U.S. Forest Service,
and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Old world archeological
experience is also represented through excavations in France, Egypt, Israel
and Italy. This experience, with the varied interests and specializations of
the staff, enhances the capabilities of the company in any project situation.
Research associates with particular specialties augment the capabilities
of the in-house staff. Among these capabilities are soil science, remote
sensing, geomorphology, and various environmental studies. The company main-
tains contact with a variety of potential specialists who may be called upon
to assist with particular problems or for special project requirements.
Physical and Technical Resources
A variety of services are provided by the company, including literature
and background research, reconnaissance and survey, assessment and test ex-
cavation, large-scale data recovery excavation, and reporting of investiga-
tions. To support this work, Prewitt and Associates has access to: (1) ade-
quate travel and logistical support vehicles; (2) field and laboratory equip-
ment for the performance of cultural resources investigations and analyses;
(3) technical services and support for the preparation of professional or
popular reports; (4) data processing and computer facilities; and (5) library
and office facilities. Our location in Austin is close to a number of the
main research facilities for the State of Texas (e.g., the Texas Archeological
Research Laboratory, the Texas Historical Commission, and the Barker Texas
History Center). Our central location within the state enhances our ability
to respond in a timely and efficient manner, to most requests for fieldwork.
Support Staff

clude an extensive collection of reference literature focusing on Texas and
surrounding states and archeological theory, as well as professional period-
icals and journals, maps, and other graphic data from these areas of study.
Storage is maintained here for field data, maps, photographs, and final
reports generated by Prewitt and Associates staff. We maintain our offices in
3400 square feet of space. Included are five private offices, two large
workrooms, two storage rooms, and a library room.
Travel
The firm owns a 1982 two -wheel drive pickup truck which is used for
short-term (less than one calendar week) projects with minimal staffing re-
quirements. Vehicle rental is arranged as necessary on a project -specific
basis for projects which are longer in duration and/or necessitate larger
field crews. Vehicles which are locally available include two -wheel drive
pickups, vans (both 15 and 8 passenger), station wagons and standard -sized
cars. These rentals may be arranged at daily, weekly or monthly rates.
Details concerning rental and mileage costs are given in the separate cost
Proposal prepared for each delivery order.
Field and Laboratory Equipment
Standard items of equipment necessary for conducting reconnaissance or
intensive survey, and test or large-scale excavations are maintained by the
firm. Field equipment includes a variety of hand tools (e.g., 15 shovels, 5
pick/mattocks, a posthole digger, and an auger), screens (10 full-sized
screens and 2 shovel -testing screens), a transit, a builders level, an
alidade, a plane table, and stadia rods. Items such as compasses and cameras
(three 35 -mm and three 24 -by -2;t -inch) are also owned by the company. Other
standard small items include six 30-m tapes, hand tapes, trowels, sledge
hammers, hard hats, snake leggings, first aid kits, and the like. All equip-
ment is maintained in good adjustment and working order.
The laboratory facilities of Prewitt and Associates, Inc. include a "wet
lab" for the cleaning and stabilization of materials from the field and a "dry
lab" where the materials are catalogued, examined, and analyzed. Analysis is
aided by two variable power microscopes, a triple -beam balance, nested
graduated sieves, a polar planimeter, a Mohs hardness scale, metric calipers,
lighted magnifiers (10x), and Munsell soil color charts. Certain special
studies such as airphoto analysis can be made in our laboratory; technical
analysis services (i.e., radiological, geochemical, pollen) are subcontracted
with qualified facilities.
Report Preparation Services
Report preparation and editing are facilitated by the firm's two IBM
Displaywriters (word processors) equipped with Textpack 4 and Reportpack. We
also own the full line of standard drafting equipment and are set up for the
rapid completion of camera-ready graphics. All illustration and layout needs
are satisfied in-house. Precise renderings of artifacts in profile are made
Possible with the firm's formagauge device. High quality custom photographic
and printing services are available from a number of firms in Austin. Should
color separation printing be desired, we have the capability to prepare such
materials. The company owns a Canon NP270-F copier for duplicating draft
reports and field notes.
Data Processing and Computer Facilities
Our firm owns several computer systems. Our main computer system is an
SC2 AT clone with a 40 megabyte hard disk and a 1.2 megabyte floppy disc which
is interactively linked to the dedicated word processors (Displaywriters) for
convenience and versatility in transferring text, tables, and files. This
computer is supported by an IBM PC, a Macintosh 512K, and a Hewlett-Packard
110 Portable. These systems give us greater capabilities and flexibility in
conducting statistical manipulation of data. It also enhances project and
data management through the use of various software programs. Software
currently owned by the firm includes Displaywrite for word processing, Minark
Archeological Database system in addition to Lotus 1-2-3 data management and
analysis, and Basic and MSDOS for systems control.
