2016 Southern Alberta flood investigation at sites EePl-261 and EdPm-7 on the Highwood River

Description

In 2016, preliminary excavations were conducted at EdPm-7 and EePl-261 along the Highwood River south of Calgary. The sites were heavily impacted by the 2013 floods and continue to be threatened by future flood events. Excavations, diagnostic artifacts, and radiocarbon dating confirmed that EePl-261 and EdPm-7 are Late Precontact Period sites. Eight interesting in situ features were identified and excavated, which contribute to a better understanding of camp life and settlement patterns along the Highwood River. Part of the 37th volume of the Archaeological Survey of Alberta Occasional Paper series, which contains 18 articles exploring multiple facets of the impact on archaeological resources of the 2013 flood in southern Alberta.
