84 ANNUAL REPORT SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, 1949 
Universities of Nebraska, Oklahoma, Oregon, and Texas provided 
space for field offices and laboratories for regular units of the Surveys, 
while the Universities of Denver, Colorado, and California, and 
Western State College of Colorado supplied temporary bases of 
operations for specific projects. The Universities of California, 
Oklahoma, Oregon, and Washington joined forces with the Surveys 
for some reconnaissance work and for the excavations at the Fort 
Gibson, McNary, and O’Sullivan Reservoirs. In a number of cases 
responsibility for units in the survey and excavation program was 
assumed by State and local institutions. 
The Museum of Northern Arizona and the University of Arizona 
did some preliminary survey work, while the San Diego Museum of 
Man conducted surveys and did some digging in the area of the Davis 
Dam on the Colorado River between Arizona and Nevada. The Uni- 
versity of Arkansas engaged in both reconnaissance and excavations 
in the area of Bull Shoals Reservoir in that State. The California 
Archeological Survey of the University of California conducted ex- 
cavations at the Pine Flat and Isabella Reservoirs, while the Archeo- 
logical Surveys Association of Southern California carried on recon- 
naissance work in that part of the State. The Florida Park Service 
surveyed the section in northern Florida that will be affected by the 
Jim Woodruff Dam on the Apalachicola River near Chattahooche and 
did some digging in a number of sites. The University of Georgia 
continued its surveys along the Chattahooche and Flint Rivers and 
conducted excavations at one site in the Allatoona Reservoir on the 
Etowah River. Jn Illinois the University of Lllinois, the University 
of Chicago, and the Illinois State Museum furnished information 
about the extent and character of sites in the basins of 15 reservoir 
projects proposed for the Illinois River drainage. The Indiana His- 
torical Bureau carried on surveys and did some excavating not only 
at proposed Federal projects, but at those under State construction 
as well. 
The Museum of Natural History of the University of Kansas made 
excavations at Kanopolis Reservoir in July and August of 1948 in sites 
where the rising waters of the reservoir were already encroaching upon 
the remains. The results of that work were reported on by Dr. 
Carlyle S. Smith in an article, “Archeological Investigations in Ells- 
worth and Rice Counties, Kansas,’ which appeared in American 
Antiquity, vol. 14, No. 4, April 1949. In June of 1949 the same 
institution was beginning investigations at the Glen Elder Reservoir 
with other work planned for the Woodston, Webster, and Cedar Bluff 
projects in the same region of the Solomon River drainage. In Ken- 
tucky the University continued its program of excavations at the 
Wolf Creek Reservoir on the Cumberland River and at the Dewey
