Book Description
From January to April, 1990, the Archaeological Research Laboratory at Texas A & M University conducted a cultural resources survey for Delivery Order Number 10 of 26 sq km (6,425 acres) at Fort Hood. As a result of the survey, 77 archaeological sites were discovered or relocated, and recorded. The 54 prehistoric sites show evidence of human occupation spanning the last 8,500 years. The 23 historic sites represent the initial migrations into Central Texas by Anglo settlers beginning about 1850 and ending with the purchase of the land by the Army in the 1940s and 1950s. Preliminary recommendations regarding the research potential of each site were based solely on the surface indications of the sites, with the result that a number of sites will require shovel testing in order to appraise the depth of the deposits, and/or documentary and informant research. Lithic remains constitute the most abundant artifact category recovered during the present survey. During the survey of 41CV1540, five discrete concentrations of lithic debris consisting of two distinct chert types were encountered. The concentrated nature of these debris areas indicate that they may be largely intact. Analysis of the debitage shows that a slightly different reduction strategy was used on the two types of material based on the different amount of cortex present and a different rate of loading during flake removal.

Book Description
Archaeologists from the Archaeological Research Laboratory at Texas A & M University surveyed a total of 7.7 sq km in uplands, intermediate areas, and lowlands on and adjacent to Fort Hood, including approximately 4.5 sq km or 1, 100 acres within the Cantonment area and 3.2 sq km or 800 acres in the Belton Lake periphery area. Field work was conducted on an intermittent basis from September 1991 through January 1992. Fifty prehistoric and historic archaeological sites were recorded. In the Belton Lake periphery area, prehistoric site density was 9.91 sites per square kilometer and historic site density was 1.55 per square kilometer. The prehistoric site density of 1.78 sites per sq km for the Cantonment area was significantly lower than the areas around Belton Lake, and historic sites in the Cantonment area also had a lower density (ca 1.1 site sq km). The research topics addressed herein are: a comparison of the number of sites predicted by the recently revised predictive model with the number of sites recorded in the Cantonment and Belton Lake periphery areas; and the nature and distribution of Late Prehistoric sites in the Fort Hood area as they pertain to a previously proposed population decrease in the central Texas area.
