Archaeological and Historic Cultural Resources Inventory for a Flood Control Project at Halstad, Norman County, Minnesota

摘要

A cultural resources inventory of proposed flood control right-of-way lines and areas at Halstad, Minnesota was conducted in 1981. One previously recorded prehistoric site, Riverside, is located within the existing levee right-of-way line. Four previously unrecorded historic sites were located, and of these, three (South Cemetery, Homestead, and Log Building) are within the proposed right-of-way lines. Recommendations include: 1) modify flood control plans to avoid all cultural resource sites within the right-of-way 2) avoid the South Cemetery by implementing a bypass and 3) conduct further cultural resource research at any site that cannot be avoided.
