AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: The United States Department of the Interior, The National Park Service (NPS), and Southeast Archeological Center are announcing a notice of intent to award; this is not a request for applications. This funding opportunity is to provide public notice of NPS&apos;s intention to fund the following project activities without full and open competition, under Cooperative Agreement P14AC00882 with the University of Tennessee, a partner under the Southern Appalachian Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, for a project titled Documenting Subsistence Strategies in the Southeast Using the National Park Service&#191;s Archeological Resources.
Description: This project seeks to interpret ancient subsistence strategies at archeological sites in the NPS Southeast Region. This study will assist the park(s) in fulfilling their National Historic Preservation Act, Section 110 obligations to document archeological sites and determine their eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The findings of this project will lay the groundwork for nominations to the NRHP. Specifically, this project will develop a better understanding of past lifeways, human diets, landscape transformation, and how past populations interacted with natural resources. The Southeast Archeological Center (SEAC) and partner Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) will target key sites in the southeastern U.S. for archeological investigation.
