摘要

Mariah Associates, Inc. conducted an intensive archaeological survey of an approximate 30-acre portion of The Big Blue Battlefield in Kansas City, Jackson County, Missouri. The inventory was required in advance of proposed flood control levee construction under the purview of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Kansas City District. The systematic survey involved both visual inspection and metal detector transects to search for evidence of the Civil War engagements which occurred in the vicinity of Byram's Ford (of the Big Blue River) on October 22 and 23, 1864. The Big Blue (or Byram's Ford) Battlefield (Site 23JA507) was evaluated as historically significant and is recommended as eligible for the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion A. In January of 1997, TRC Mariah Associates, Inc. of Laramie, Wyoming, completed an archaeological data recovery investigation of Site 23JA507, Locality A. A total of three definite battle related munitions artifacts was recovered during the data recovery phase, as well as one other possible battle related artifact. These finds were assessed in the context of the battles and are recognizable signatures of the combatants.
