An Archaeological Survey for the Turkey Creek Trail Project in Brazos County, Texas
Abstract
An archaeological survey of the proposed Turkey Creek Trail project in central Brazos County, Texas was performed by Brazos Valley Research Associates (BVRA) in July of 2004 under Archeology Permit 3474. The state agencies associated with this project are the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD), the City of Bryan, and the County of Brazos. Because of State involvement, this project falls under the Antiquities Code of Texas. Funding for the project was provided through a National Recreation Trails grant administered by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Service. To be eligible, the applicant competed with numerous public entities and non-profit corporations. Grantees were selected on need and services provided. The area examined consisted of approximately 10 acres. William E. Moore was the Principal Investigator, and Edward P. Baxter was the Project Archaeologist. The project area was investigated using the pedestrian survey method supported by shovel testing. No archaeological sites were recorded, and no artifacts worthy of curation were collected.
