The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) OR-WA CESU is offering this grant for critical data recovery and analysis at archaeological site LS-1. This grant is for preserving invaluable prehistoric data before permanent loss due to weathering and persistent looting. The site is currently unprotected, leading to ongoing removal of rockshelter fill and deterioration of exposed artifacts abandoned by looters. This project aims to meticulously recover these artifacts and remaining stratigraphic information to document the site’s prehistory. Its goal is to mitigate irreversible damage, preserving this irreplaceable archaeological resource for future study.

| Description: | The principle purpose of this project is to recover the data on the prehistory of site LS1 before it is lost to weathering and further looting of the site. The site cannot be protected from further looting which would remove the remaining fill from within the rockshelter. In addition, many artifacts with research value were left behind by the looters which were then exposed to erosion and deterioration. |
