Artifact Database, Honey Creek Area 1978

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Louisville District archaeological collections were sent to the Veterans Curation Project’s (VCP) St. Louis laboratory in the fall of 2009. The VCP St. Louis laboratory was established by USACE, St. Louis District’s Mandatory Center of Expertise for the Curation and Management of Archaeological Collections using American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 funds and staffed through Brockington and Associates, Inc. The procedures employed to re-house the archaeological material from the Honey Creek, 1978 investigation are discussed below and follow those procedures utilized by the VCP St. Louis laboratory. In the re-housing process of each investigative effort of the USACE, Louisville District collection, the same standard procedures and Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology, Indiana University (GBL) guidelines were followed. Upon completion of the curation management project, collections will be sent to GBL for permanent curation.

The procedures employed by the St. Louis VCP to rehouse the archaeological material from the Honey Creek Area 1978 investigation are discussed in the Artifact Report. The report can be found in tDAR at https://core.tdar.org/document/425866/artifact-report-honey-creek-area-1978.

美国陆军工程兵团（U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, USACE）路易斯维尔分区的考古藏品于2009年秋季被送往退伍军人藏品管理项目（Veterans Curation Project, VCP）圣路易斯实验室。该VCP圣路易斯实验室由美国陆军工程兵团圣路易斯分区依托2009年美国复苏与再投资法案（American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009）资金设立的考古藏品管理与整理强制专家中心建立，并由Brockington and Associates, Inc.派驻人员运营。下文将阐述针对1978年蜂蜜溪（Honey Creek）考古调查出土藏品的重新装盒流程，该流程遵循VCP圣路易斯实验室所采用的标准操作规范。在对美国陆军工程兵团路易斯维尔分区各考古调查项目的藏品进行重新装盒的过程中，所有操作均遵循统一标准流程以及印第安纳大学格伦·A·布莱克考古学实验室（Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology, Indiana University, GBL）的指导准则。本次藏品管理项目完成后，这批考古藏品将移交至GBL进行永久收藏管理。
