An Intensive Archaeological Survey of the Proposed Seaboard Coast Line Railroad Relocation R-2 and Associated Boroow Area, Richard B. Russell Reservoir, Seaboard Coast Line Railroad Relocation 1979

This report presents the findings of an archaeological survey of a proposed railroad relocation of a section of Seaboard Coast Line Railroad, labeled R-2 in the Army Corps of Engineers maps. An associated 27 acre (10.9 hectare) borrow area was included in this survey. The results of the survey of the borrow area indicate that one potentially significant prehistoric archaeological site labeled Site //2 (Borrow Area R-2) does exist within the borrow zone and will require additional mitigation work. Two other sites located in or near this project area are advised for clearance.
The survey of the proposed railway relocation identified two prehistoric and one historic site directly within the corridor. None of these sites possess potential for significant data recovery, and clearance is advised for all of railroad relocation R-2.

本报告呈现了针对滨海海岸铁路（Seaboard Coast Line Railroad）某区段拟议改道工程的考古调查成果，该区段在美国陆军工程兵团（Army Corps of Engineers）的地图中标注为R-2。本次调查覆盖了与之相关的27英亩（10.9公顷）取土场（borrow area）。经对该取土场的调查，确认取土区内确实存在一处标注为//2号遗址（取土场R-2）的潜在重要史前考古遗址，需开展额外的文物保护补救工作。建议对位于该项目区域内或周边的另外两处遗址予以清理放行。
针对该拟议铁路改道工程的调查显示，其线路廊道范围内直接分布有两处史前遗址与一处历史遗址。上述遗址均不具备开展高价值考古资料提取的潜力，因此建议对R-2铁路改道工程全线予以清理放行。
