Abstract:

Teenagers David and Diane Bartz discovered a dugout canoe on the Neuse River. The Underwater Archaeology Branch with help from the U.S. Army Corp retrieved the vessel on March 8, 1978 and transported it to the branch's headquarters at Fort Fisher. A dugout in this condition is very rare and was, at that point, the only example found on the Neuse River and one of the few in the entire state.
