Road right-of-211u001eways in Florida contain approximately 22 percent of all recorded significant 211u001earchaeological sites, a figure which clearly underscores FDOT's management 211u001eresponsibilities and indicates the potential importance of FDOT's archaeological 211u001econtribution to the body of archaeological knowledge about Florida's past.
