This grant from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is for the systematic cultural inventory and site recordation of over 10,000 acres in the Weatherman Draw area of Montana, targeting completion by FY 2013. The primary purpose is to enhance the BLM’s understanding of past land uses and the spatial distribution of cultural resources, facilitating their effective management and protection. A key objective involves identifying and thoroughly documenting at-risk sites, evaluating them for National Register eligibility, and conducting detailed studies. This research will provide crucial insights into prehistoric and historic settlement patterns and spatial utilization, addressing important questions regarding the prehistoric use of floral and faunal resources. The initiative will significantly improve the BLM’s cultural resource stewardship.

| Description: | The current objectives of this project are (1) ongoing systematic cultural inventory and site recordation, which by the project completion, in FY 2013, a total of 10,000 + acres will have been inventoried by the same partner. This inventory and site recordation will enable the BLM to better understand past uses of the area and where these uses occurred, as well as manage and protect the cultural resources in the Weatherman Draw area. (2) As part of the systematic cultural inventory, at risk sites will be identified, intensively recorded, evaluated for National Register eligibility, and studied. This will enable the BLM to have a better understanding of prehistoric and historic settlement and spatial use patterns. Through this recordation of archaeological sites, important research questions about prehistoric use floral and faunal resources will be answered. |
