Abstract

It can be seen that areas of occupation that were found were located exclusively near and on bluff regions. The only place that a midden deposit (Site 2-A) was located was adjacent to the river, and almost all the material found during the survey was in the first three Areas--all the chert tools and weapons, approximately 95% of the chert flakes and chips, and approximately 97.5% of the pottery.

Some generalizations can be made about what the presence of found material means in terms of occupations at the Vogtle Plant property.
