Finding Aid, Lake Monroe Survey and Excavation Arbitrary Collection 1976-1997

The Veterans Curation Program utilizes the standard archival practice of unique naming of collections. The purpose of this practice is to avoid redundant and confusing collection names commonly found with archaeological investigations. Therefore, this collection is referred to as “Lake Monroe Survey and Excavation Arbitrary Collection 1976-1997.” This name is consistent throughout the finding aid, the file folder, and the box labels. The extent of this collection is a quarter of a linear inch.
The Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology (GBL) artifact catalog for this investigation was sent to the VCP electronically, printed on acid free paper, and housed with the associated documentation. Scanned asset numbers were not assigned, because the file was uploaded into the digital imaging database directly from the file sent by GBL.
GBL catalog and specimen cards were removed from the artifact boxes, cleaned, and integrated with the records associated with this investigation. The cards are associated with accession numbers 9501, 9515, 9571, 10697, 10697, 10704, 10705, and 10706. The site numbers associated with these items are 12MO133, 12MO183-12MO184, 12MO186, 12MO188, 12MO192, 12MO197, 12MO311, 12MO312, 12MO314, 12MO332, 12MO341, 12MO346, and 12MO359. The county abbreviation “MO” refers to Monroe County.
