Abstract

During October of 1996 and May 1999, staff archaeologists from the Georgia Department of Transportation conducted intensive archaeological testing at the Sapp property in Pulaski County, Georgia. The Sapp House-was previously recommended as eligible for the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion C in the area of architecture. This was concurred with by the Georgia State Historic Preservation Officer. The purpose of the intensive testing was to determine if the Sapp property might also be considered eligible for the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion D, for important information it might contain about early twentieth century lifeways. Results of the intensive testing indicate that no cultural deposits relating to the occupation of the Sapp House remain at the property. Based on this, no official Georgia Archaeological Site Number designation was assigned to the area occupied by the Sapp House and it's associated buildings. The portion of the Sapp' property subjected to archaeological testing is recommended as not eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion D.
