Abstract:

This report presents the research objectives, techniques, and results of the second phase of the Tombigbee Historic Townsites Project. The Townsites Project, a large, multiphased investigation of the extinct nineteenth century river communities of Barton and Vinton, Mississippi, ultimately seeks to unite oral historical, documentary, and archaeological information within a cultural systems framework. An introduction to the second phase effort and specialized reports of the Oral Historical, Archival Research, Archaeology, and Laboratory programs follow. Viewed collectively with the Phase I interim report, these documents summarize work completed up to the data recovery program. Author
