OpportunityTitle: Archaeological Data Recovery and Testing at Kozlowksi&#226;&#191;&#191;s Trading Post
Description: The purpose of the project is to conduct archaeological data recovery and testing at the Kozlowski&#226;&#191;&#191;s Trading Post at Pecos NHP in support of proposed rehabilitation/construction activities. Inside the building, the locations of concrete spot footings needed to support the new floor system will be excavated by archaeologists and all cultural resources recorded, artifacts analyzed and final report completed that summarizes present and past work within the Trading Post. Exterior work consists of remote sensing and test excavations to identify buried cultural resources in the location of a new septic line and proposed leach field southeast of the Trading Post building. This work benefits the public by providing information for interpretation and allowing for the completion of archaeological compliance, preservation, and the rehabilitation of Kozlowski&#226;&#191;&#191;s Trading Post, which will be used as a visitor contact station. Furthermore, student(s) working on the project will gain valuable professional experience with archeology applied within a real world, public trust resource management setting. The information, products and/or services identified or developed by this project will be shared through a variety of strategies to increase public awareness, knowledge and support for historic preservation, and stewardship of the nation&#226;&#191;&#191;s cultural and historical heritage.
