Artifact Report, Surveys at Patoka Lake 1979

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 Patoka Lake Survey, 1979 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 projects, collections were sent to GBL for permanent curation. The artifact database can be found in tDAR at (https://core.tdar.org/dataset/425862/).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年秋季被送交至退伍军人馆藏项目（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的考古藏品馆藏与管理法定专家中心依托《2009年美国复苏与再投资法案》资金设立，并由布罗金顿联合公司（Brockington and Associates, Inc.）派驻人员负责运营。 下文将详述1979年帕托卡湖调查（Patoka Lake Survey）出土考古遗存的重新装存流程，该流程严格遵循VCP圣路易斯实验室的操作规范。针对美国陆军工程兵团路易斯维尔分区所有考古藏品的各项调查工作的重新装存环节，均统一采用标准流程，并遵守印第安纳大学格伦·A·布莱克考古实验室（Glenn A.
