Finding Aid, Rockport Site N.D.

This collection referred to as "Rockport Site N.D.” This name is consistent throughout the finding aid, the file folders and the box labels. The extent of this collection is a quarter of a linear inch. The Rockport Site N.D. came in an acidic box along with several acidic brown accordion folders that contained documentation from other Rockport Generating Station archaeological
investigations. The Rockport Site N.D. consisted of one report record, entitled Test Excavation at the Probable Archaeological Site at Bore Stations N130-E925, E925, N155, E925, N180 Indiana-Michigan Electric Company Rockport Plant Rockport, Indiana. The final report record consisted of one map of the Rockport Plant Site, site drawings of trenches, and a final report by Robin Johnson and John T. Dorwin. The report had a few dirt smudges that required minor cleaning, but the overall condition was good. The report housing consisted of plastic binding and a clear, plastic cover. The accession number, 1420, was written on the front cover in black USACE- Louisville District Rockport Site
No Date John T Dorwin and Robin Johnson, Principal Investigators 4 permanent marker. The report cover was cleaned and most of the dirt smudges were removed from the report document using an eraser. The report was placed into an acid-free folder, scanned, and re-boxed with other documentation from Rockport Generating Station archaeological investigations. There were no photographic or oversized materials present. The date of the collection was not indicated, but it is believed by the processing archivist that it dates prior to 1980. The processing archivist also curated the Rockport Site 1980, which included a report entitled Archaeological Testing at a Probable Archaeological Site (12SP42), Rockport Generating Station, Spencer County, Indiana. This report lists the Rockport Site N.D. report in the references cited section, and it attributed the date of 1979 to the report. Therefore, it can be assumed that the report, Test Excavation at the Probable Archaeological Site at Bore Stations N130-E925, E925, N155, E925, N180 Indiana-Michigan Electric Company Rockport Plant Rockport, Indiana, dates to 1979, but the archivist did not assign this date to the collection, because it was not recorded on any of the original documentation.

本数据集命名为‘罗克波特遗址未标注日期版（Rockport Site N.D.）’，该命名在档案检索工具、文件盒及箱标中全程保持一致。本数据集的馆藏规模为四分之一线性英寸。罗克波特遗址未标注日期版数据集收纳于一个酸性档案盒中，盒内附带数个酸性棕色风琴式文件夹，其中存放有罗克波特发电厂其他考古调查相关的档案资料。本数据集仅包含一份报告记录，标题为《印地安那州罗克波特市印地安那-密歇根电力公司（Indiana-Michigan Electric Company）罗克波特电厂钻孔测点N130-E925、E925、N155、E925、N180疑似考古遗址试掘报告》。该报告记录包含罗克波特电厂遗址地图、开挖沟槽现场图纸，以及由罗宾·约翰逊（Robin Johnson）与约翰·T·多温（John T. Dorwin）撰写的最终报告。报告本体带有少量尘土污渍，需进行轻度清洁，但整体保存状况良好。报告的装帧为塑料封套与透明塑料封面。封面以黑色永久记号笔标注了馆藏编号1420，同时印有‘美国陆军工程兵团路易斯维尔分局（USACE- Louisville District）：罗克波特遗址 未标注日期 约翰·T·多温与罗宾·约翰逊 首席调查员’字样。工作人员使用橡皮擦清洁了报告封面，并去除了报告文档上的大部分尘土污渍。该报告随后被装入无酸文件夹，进行数字化扫描，并与罗克波特发电厂考古调查的其他档案资料一同重新装箱收纳。本数据集未包含影像资料或超幅面物料。数据集未标注制作日期，但负责编目的档案管理员推测其形成于1980年之前。该编目档案管理员同时负责整理了1980年版罗克波特遗址数据集，其中包含标题为《印第安纳州斯宾塞县罗克波特发电厂疑似考古遗址（12SP42）考古试掘》的报告。该1980年版报告的参考文献部分收录了罗克波特遗址未标注日期版报告，并将此报告的年代定为1979年。因此可推定该《印地安那州罗克波特市印地安那-密歇根电力公司罗克波特电厂钻孔测点N130-E925、E925、N155、E925、N180疑似考古遗址试掘报告》形成于1979年，但由于原始文档中未记录该日期，编目档案管理员并未将此年代赋予本数据集。如需进一步研究或获取罗克波特发电厂考古调查的更多资料，请参阅以下档案数据集：《1978年格兰维尤地区项目》（馆藏编号1407/1407A）、《1978年哈尼溪地区项目》（馆藏编号1409/1409A）、《罗克波特遗址未标注日期版》（馆藏编号140）、《1980年罗克波特遗址项目》（馆藏编号1445）以及《1984年罗克波特遗址项目》（馆藏编号1563）。
