The Oak Ridge Reservation area is rich in archaeological resources, both prehistoric and historic. Preservation of these resources is mandated by several pieces of federal legislation and by the Tennessee Natural Areas Preservation Act of 1971. In deciding the future use of reservation lands, planners must consider the effects of expansion or new construction on the archaeological resources of the area. This document presents an overview of the anthropological background of the area, a review of the research conducted on the reconnaissance, and a summary of archaeological resources in specific plant areas. A quantity of supporting documentation is provided, including detailed inventories of the cemeteries, prehistoric sites, and historic sites in the reservation area. 29 references, 22 figures, 3 tables.
