An Archaeological Survey of Suemaur Exploration & Production LLC's Skull and Crossbones Prospect in Galveston County, Texas
Abstract
An archaeological survey of Suemaur Exploration & Production, LLC’s Skull and Bones Prospect was conducted on February 26, 2008 by BVRA in eastern Galveston County, Texas with negative results. The investigation examined a proposed drill site and a portion of a proposed 10-inch pipeline, an area consisting of 4.04 acres. Virtually all of the project area is located in a low marshy setting with little high ground. Two shovel tests were excavated in wet sand, and no cultural materials were observed or collected. It is concluded that the project area was not a suitable setting for a prehistoric campsite. It is, therefore, recommended that construction be allowed to proceed as planned.
