Arkansas Archeological Survey races time to save sites
In Arkansas the new Arkansas Archeological Survey faces a race against time as development and dam building threaten thousands of years of sites. Created by the 1967 General Assembly, the survey aims to document and preserve artifacts, with a goal of informing the public about the state’s long heritage while urging landowners to protect Indian mounds and shelters. The effort, led by Dr. Charles R. McGimsey II and Miss Hester A. Davis, notes about 25 percent of Eastern Arkansas sites have been lost recently, and Soil Conservation Service predicts most sites may be gone in about 25 years. The Arkansas Archeological Society, with 420 members, calls it a crash program to record as much as possible before destruction accelerates.
