Archaeological Monitoring at 41HY261 for the Riverside Drive Reconstruction Project

During the months of March and April in 2014, the Center for Archaeological Studies (CAS) at Texas State University conducted archaeological monitoring of excavations associated with the Riverside Drive Reconstruction Project (RDRP) located near Archaeological site 41HY261 on the east bank of the San Marcos River in San Marcos, Texas.   The RDRP was subject to provisions of the Antiquities Code of Texas, and was proposed to be located within the boundaries of archaeological site 41HY261. Therefore, working under Texas Antiquities Permit 6202, CAS conducted archaeological monitoring on behalf of the City to assist them with their regulatory compliance obligations.

Cultural deposits were encountered from within the excavated sediments and are considered to be associated with site 41HY261.
