Time estimates will vary by the size of the project area, the amount of previous disturbance, depth of the testing necessary, and the complexity of the cultural resources potentially located within the project area. For large project areas or project areas containing significant resources you should plan more time into your project schedule for cultural resources work. For small project areas, project areas that may have been disturbed in large part in the past (like previously strip-mined areas), or project areas that after survey are confirmed to contain no cultural resources less time will be needed.

Last week Kira Heinrich was out in Greenville, Mercer County to talk about our Schoolhouse Commons project and the five sites we uncovered. Her talk was well attended and it was a great opportunity for CDC to share the details about what we found. And we made the local newspaper! Check out the article about the presentation and photos from the event!
Hello Everyone! My name is Christina Hall, I am an intern at CDC, and I wanted to share what we have accomplished so far as we take a pause on curating the legacy collection here at the remote lab at the Haddonville School near Uniontown. We have had to take a pause in our work to identify more funding to continue the curation work we are doing for the Fort Gaddis Collection (36FA0122). Initially we started with 78 boxes, with our work to date and repackaging of artifacts we have condensed the collection to 54 boxes. Of those 54 boxes we have completed curation of roughly 20%! We hope to re-open our lab soon after finding more funding and continue our curation work. ![]()

Below I have attached an image of what the new completed boxes, that at are up to modern curation standards, look like. Every box contains fully inventoried materials that are organized with the artifacts in catalog and specimen number order. Also attached is an image of what the artifacts look like in their original condition. Very different! We are proud of our progress so far and can’t wait to get back to the project in the future!
