Abstract

The Georgia Southern University archaeology program's long term research goals include exploration and documentation of sites in the Atlantic Coastal Plain, especially in areas unknown or little known through professional survey. Recent and ongoing work by the authors and our field school students have revealed intriguing evidence of substantial settlement in Georgia's early colonial period, including the construction of earthworks in a complex of streams tributary to the Savannah River. Our analysis efforts of this site and its occupants bear directly on questions of conflict, economy, ethnicity, and nation building in an out-of-the-way place.
