A Weeden Island House Structure at the Sycamore Site, Gadsen County, Florida

Florida is about as far my "home" research area as it possible to get and still be within the Eastern Woodlands.  As a consequence, the EWHADP database contains only two entries for the state:  the Horr's Island site in Collier County and the Aspalaga site in Gadsen County. I'm sure there is a lot more information out there, I'm just not aware of it yet.  As I was reviewing my Florida data this morning for a presentation at the upcoming DINAA (Digital Index of North American Archaeology) workshop in South Bend in August, I came across a 1974 report by Jerald Milanich about excavations at the Sycamore site (8-Gd-13) near Aspalaga. 

The structure at Sycamore was an oval defined by postmolds (illustration to right taken from Milanich 1974:Figure 7).  It measured approximately 8.9 m x 6.2 m
and was associated with a variety of features. It will be Structure 2260 when I update the database.

See how easy it is?  In just a few moments I increased the size of my Florida sample by 50 percent.
