Great Basin Surveys

Great Basin Surveys refer to archaeological studies conducted in the Great Basin region of the United States, which includes parts of Nevada, Utah, and surrounding areas. These surveys aim to document and understand the cultural history of the Indigenous peoples who lived in this area, exploring artifacts, structures, and features left behind. Researchers assess the landscape and gather data to analyze past human activities, settlement patterns, and environmental changes. The findings help preserve cultural heritage and inform our understanding of human adaptation and interaction with the environment over thousands of years.
