Under a continuing services contract with the U.S. Army Infantry Center, Directorate of Public Work, Environmental Division, Fort Benning Military Reservation, Panamerican Consultants, Inc. (PCI) conducted an intensive archaeological survey of 738 acres comprising Training Areas AA, C l, and J2, and Harmony Church Cantonment Areas 1 and 2 at Fort Benning, Georgia. This work was undertaken in compliance with Section 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NRHP) of 1966 as amended; Executive Order 11593 (Protection and Enhancement of the Cultural Environment); and the Archaeological and Historic Preservation Act of 1974. A total of two cultural loci were investigated during this survey, both of which were isolated finds (i.e., those sites yielding no more than two historic or prehistoric artifacts found within a 30-m radius). One of the loci yielded an Indian artifact, and one locus yielded a non-Indian item. Both loci were recommended ineligible for inclusion into the NRHP.
