This report presents the results of an archaeological field survey in the proposed construction area for a county service buildings site near the City of Claxton, Evans County, Georgia. The county service buildings site will occupy a currently cultivated field approximately.

This preliminary report summarizes the results of an archaeological survey of the Robert W. Scherer plant site and water pipeline. The plant site consists of approximately 12,000 acres located slightly over three miles east of Forsyth in Monroe County, Georgia.

9Ge146 is located on a relict levee-to the Horseshoe Bend of the Oconee River. The site is located between the Oconee and an abandoned river channel. The site consists of a thin scattering of cultural debris covering an area of approximately 5,000 square meters.

Ge 150 is a small rock shelter located on top of the peninsula ridge at the junction of the Oconee River and Richland Creek.

9Pm260 is located on a high ridge on the western side of the Oconee River 2.2km upstream from the dam. The site consists of a small rockshelter with two open ends formed from large boulders apparently exposed by severe erosion of the ridge (Figure 1).

9Gel62 is a long, narrow site located on Weston-Reeves (or Bull 1s Tongue) Island about 1 kilometer upstream from Wallace Dam and 300 meters downstream from the mouth of Richland Creek. The island is nearly 900 meters long and the site extends along a ridge crest for most of this distance.

Research Design: Excavations at 9Gel53 were originally designed to extensively investigate the site and all its components.

This report summarizes the results of archaeological excavations at two stone mound localities (9Mol52 and 9Mo153) at the Georgia Power Company Robert W. Scherer plant site, Monroe County, Georgia.
