Abstract:

In June, 1994 the Fort Knox Assistant Staff Archaeologist and technical assistant conducted a Phase I archaeological survey of two areas proposed for use as topsoil borrow areas at the Tow Dragon Range which total 10.2 ha or 25.2 acres in size on the Fort Knox Military Reservation, Hardin County, Kentucky. The survey resulted in the discovery of one isolated find of prehistoric archaeological material and one chart flake of questionable cultural affiliation. Isolated finds are not eligible for the National Register. No additional archaeological work is recommended in the project areas, and it is recommended that the borrowing operations be conducted as proposed.
