An Archaeological Survey for the Bastille Pipline and Gulag Well Site in Fort Bend County Texas
Abstract
An archaeological survey of a proposed natural gas pipeline (2500 feet) and well site (three acres) on the Central Unit of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice in Fort Bend County, Texas was performed by Brazos Valley Research Associates (BVRA) on December 22, 2006 and February 5, 2007 under antiquities permit 4364. The area was investigated through a 100% Pedestrian Survey, shovel testing, and backhoe trenching. The area was found to be disturbed through agricultural practices, particularly due to sugar cane production, and recent crops grown by the prison. No archaeological sites were found, and no artifacts were collected. Further work is not warranted.
