Summary

"This report discusses the finding of the Phase I archaeological investigations at Marion Square. It presents results and recommendations concerning the cultural resources found in the Square. This document is prepared ... as a planning tool to assist in determining the best method to landscape or otherwise alter the Square while taking into account possible damage [to] the archaeological resources.... This first phase is an attempt to determine the location of the hornwork associated with the Colonial and Revolutionary War city defenses as well as determine the types and density of features primarily associated with the military use of the Square."--Introd
