TELEPHONE HILL METHODOLOGY (12) An editor reviewed the written work of the researchers and provided consistency, clarification and technical expertise to the document. Many agencies, organizations and people provided support and cooperation during the survey, sharing their expertise, information and memories. However, the survey was inhibited, in part, by the inaccessibility of several structures· interiors; owners or residents were seldom, if ever, home. Relatives of only one family of early settlers of the hill remain in Juneau. Many of the properties today have absentee owners and are rentals. The neighborhood is transient and is a mixture of public and private buildings. But Telephone Hill continues to project its historic ambience and reminds all Alaskans of an earlier period. -7-
ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION A surface reconnaissance of the study area was conducted for evidence of significant archaeological remains. Random transects were employed to inventory all accessible areas. Certain aspects of the natural and cultural terrain made it difficult to follow a straight transect. Steep terrain, in places, made traverses practically impossible. The scattered thick brush and grass cover limited ground visibility. Severe ground disturbances due to roadways, parking lots, building construction and walkways, especially along the base of Telephone Hill, inhibited observation of possible archaeological remains. The coverage of the study area was thorough. One hundred percent of all exposed areas were surveyed. Eroded slopes, vertical cuts and former sites of turn-of-the-century structures were examined. Concrete foundations, rock and concrete walls, wooden stairways, walkways and fences, and vintage telephone poles were also observed and evaluated for their historic significance. Alaska Archives Resource and Records Management reviewed historic, ethnographic and ethnohistoric 1iterature and record sources for data on the study area1s settlement history. We interviewed current residents of Telephone Hill, local historians, anthropologists and archaeologists to ascertain the existence of archaeological remains in the study area. A cultural resource investigation and comprehensive evaluation of the study aree t s prehistoric/ historic resources had never been conducted prior to this survey_ -8-
