US Army National Guard Cultural Resources Planning Level Survey - Florida

In December 1997, St. Louis District personnel visited the Florida Army National Guard (FLARNG) Headquarters in St. Augustine and the Florida State Site Files Office in Tallahassee to research archaeological and historic buildings survey work conducted on National Guard facilities in the state. This document reports the history of cultural investigations on federally owned or federally supported FLARNG facilities, lists archaeological sites recorded within facility boundaries, discusses historic contexts and predictive models, and provides a list of Native American tribes that may be culturally affiliated to archaeological collections recovered from FLARNG facilities. To date, 25 historic properties, including prehistoric and historic archaeological sites and one isolated find have been recorded on Camp Blanding. Cultural resource work has not been performed on Henry Holland Buckman Helicopter Landing Training Site nor have any cultural properties been recorded for it. No cultural properties located on FLARNG facilities have been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The extent, nature and location of archaeological collections recovered from work conducted on FLARNG facilities will be determined in the second phase of this project, to be completed during Fiscal Year 1999.
