Laboratory Methods All artifacts were returned to the laboratory for cleaning, analysis, and stabilization. Selected metal artifacts were submitted to Southeastern Archaeological Services, Inc. for cleaning and conservation under the direction of Jerald Ledbetter. All glass trade beads recovered during the 1989 season were submitted to Dr. Marvin T. Smith for analysis. Smith's analysis is included as Appendix I. Faunal remains from the 1989 season were submitted to Karen G. Wood for zooarchaeological analysis, and those recovered from the 1990 season were submitted to Lisa D. O'Steen for analysis. Wood's report is included as Appendix n and O'Steen's report is included as Appendix m. The analytical strategy for the artifacts was based on a slightly modified version of South's Group-Class-Type taxonomy (South 1977). Primary references utilized during the analysis included Ivor Noel Hume's (1983) Anifacts ofColonial America, Stone's (1977) Fort Michilimackinac 1715-1781, and Stanley South's (1977) Method and Theory in Historical Archaeology. All pottery was identified by type and when sufficient portions of the vessel were present, other morphological characteristics such as form and size were recorded. Minimum vessel estimates were determined using rim sherds and other sherds indicative of unique vessels. Pipe stem hole diameters were measured to the nearest 64th of an inch. All pipe stem dates were calculated using the Binford method (Noel Hume 1983) and all mean ceramic dates were calculated after South (1977) with minor modifications. Artifact pattern analysis was conducted after South (1977) except that Indian pottery was included in the kitchen artifact group. Buttons were identified using South's and Olsen's button typology (South 1964; Olsen 1963). Hamilton was the primary source consulted for arms artifact group (Hamilton 1976; Hamilton and Emery 1988). The length and width of gunflints were measured consistent with Hamilton's methods. Aboriginal pottery is described primarily by surface decoration and temper. Type designations were used sparingly, although the sherds recovered from the site generally conform to the Ocmulgee Fields series that has been described for other historic Indian assemblages in Georgia (Smith 1990). Curation All artifacts, notes, field analysis forms, maps, photographs, artifact analysis sheets, and other field records are temporarily housed in the office of the Georgia Salzburger Society within the main building of the New Ebenezer Retreat pending the creation of a more appropriate curatorial facility planned for the Ebenezer vicinity. In the absence ofany cataloguing and accessioning system at the existing Georgia Salzburger Society Museum, a system was created for labeling the artifacts. Under this system artifacts from the 1989 5
project were designated by the numeral 3. followed by the bag number (Example: 3.49). Artifacts from the 1990 season were designated by the numeral 6. using the same method. § 6
