DOWNLOAD EBOOKHabersham Land Company proposes to develop a tract of land located on the Broad River near Port Royal, SC. SouthArc had completed research on the history of the tract and an archaeological survey in 1990 for another developer, who was unable to proceed with the project due to financial difficulties. Habersham contracted with SouthArc to complete the survey report and assessments of the significance of the identified cultural resources. Field work was conducted in April 1996. The Habersham tract consists of high uplands with a bluff along the marshes fronting the Broad River at its junction with Habersham Creek. This area would have been attractive to prehistoric Native Americans due to its elevation and proximity to a variety of ecological areas that would provide an abundant resource base. In addition, the adjacent creek provided easy water access to the river itself. For similar reasons the tract continued to be attractive to historic occupants of the Port Royal area. Prior to the Civil War, the property was the Campbell plantation, known as Treadlands. The plantation was seized for unpaid taxes during the war and the main house burned after that. The property changed several times after than prior to its sale to Dr. W. R. Eve in 1905. The land remained in the Eve family until 1987 when it was sold for development. Seven archaeological tracts were identified within the 280-acre tract, with the three most significant sites being the Campbell site, the Lookout site, and the Mum Grace site, all significant and potentially eligible for the National Register, having the potential to address research questions focusing on prehistoric occupation and resource exploitation, as well as historic occupation of this area at the junction of Habersham Creek and the Broad River.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis report describes an archaeological study of 54 acres at the Habersham Development in Beaufort county to identify archaeological sites and evaluate their eligibility for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places. Shovel testing and test unit excavation revealed a prehistoric shell midden and the remains of a 19th-century slave settlement. The 20th-century Habersham cemetery lies at the northern edge of the main survey tract. Land use in the project area is predominantly residential and includes relatively new mobile homes and permanent dwellings that do not constitute significant cultural resources.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn archaeological survey and cemetery delineation was conducted for Mr. Bill Scott prior to the development of residential lots on Daufuskie Island. The Mary Field Cemetery is a key property in the Daufuskie Island National Register Historic District. TRC recommends that a 50-foot buffer around the cemetery, including natural vegetation screening, be used to help mitigate the adverse effects to this important aspect of the Daufuskie Island African-American heritage.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBrockington & Associates conducted a cultural resources survey using shovel tests of the 650 acre Burlington Plantation Tract, Beaufort County, SC in December 1997 and January 1998, in compliance with the County preservation ordinance. The survey encountered the remains of nine sites and 23 isolated finds (artifacts). Only one site is recommended eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, a pair of mid-to late 18th cent. tabby indigo processing vats, located on an inlet of the Broad River. Artifacts were primarily prehistoric ceramic and lithic scatters.
