Description
The purpose of this research project is to determine if any
correlation exists between ecological factors and the
settlement patterns exhibited within Townships 18 and 19
North, Range 93 West, of the Wamsutter Block Area Survey,
Carbon County, Wyoming. The Wamsutter project area, located
in a region known as the Red Desert, lies mostly in the
Great Divide Basin and extends slightly into the Washakie
Basin of south-central Wyoming. The environmental effect on
cultural adaptations may be reflected in the archaeological
remains. Prior to the Wamsutter survey project, this area
was the subject of several surveys by various institutions.
The previous surveys were limited compared with the massive
and intensive undertaking of this project. It is hoped that
through this investigation the utility of the large data
base generated by contract archaeology will be demonstrated.
