Results of the Catoma Creek Investigations at 1Mt209: Some Observations on the Middle Woodland Period of Central Alabama (original) (raw)

This paper aims to summarize the results of excavations undertaken at 1Mt209, Montgomery County, Alabama, by the University of Alabama at Birmingham in 1976 and later in 2006 by the Office of Archaeological Research at The University of Alabama. Collectively, over fifty features and midden deposits have been identified at this Middle Woodland site, ranging from refuse pits, hearths, rock clusters, “pot busts” of check and complicated stamped vessels, artifact clusters, and a pit house, complete with postholes, a central hearth, a midden, and an unusual pebble feature.
