Carolina bays and the Sewee Shell Ring site, South Carolina: Evidence for natural and planned water gathering

Record #:
28395
Abstract:
Natural water gathering in two newly discovered Carolina bays, designated as Oak Bay and Pine Bay was studied. These bays and the Sewee shell ring, a planned water gathering system built in the Archaic Period, provided a supply of freshwater. This study describes how hunter-gatherers utilized natural landscape features at these coastal archaeological sites.
