Project:
During this time I was a full time Archaeologist with R.S. Webb. I sometimes
served as a Crew Chief/Field Supervisor, Field Technician, Lab Technician, Report
Author, Researcher, and as “Screen Czar”. I also recorded and reported
archaeological sites for the state site files. During this time I often conducted
research at the State Historic Preservation Office in Atlanta, Ga. for National
Register of Historic Places, and at the Georgia State Archives in Morrow, Ga. I
often worked and interacted with land owners, clients, and curious locals.
Unfortunately, I was laid off due to the negative effects of the economy.
The
most interesting projects that I worked on at this time include:

Sany Testing: A Phase II testing of a site dating from the Mid-Archaic, Late
Archaic, and Woodland (Cartersville phase) in Fayette Co. Georgia. In which I
served as Field Director.

Creek in Cartersville Ga. Within the Etowah Valley Historic District. Bartow
