Anthropological Recovery, Analysis and Identification of Historic Burials in Two Southern Oregon Cemeteries
Author: Paul Christy Jenkins
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Applegate (Or.)
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
Federal legislation and U.S. Army Corps of Engineer regulations require that human burials be removed for reinterment if they are to be inundated as a result of dam construction. The final phase of the Applegate Lake Project was the archeological removal, analysis and identification of two historic Euro-American cemeteries, located within the pool area of Applegate Lake. This study is one of the first of its kind ever carried out in the Northwest. The study focuses on the problems encountered in determining the location and number of graves, how these were overcome, and the methods employed to identify the recovered remains for reinterment. The use of anthropological methodology also provided a means whereby useful historical and behavioral data were collected that served to illuminate the early pioneer history and culture of the Upper Applegate River Valley.
