Scope and content
From the abstract: "This research is a continuation of "The Archaeological Survey of the Catawba Indian Reservation" (Kenion and May 1997)... The first objective was to define and map the physical boundaries of the cemetery, as well as the pattern of burials within the cemetery boundaries. The second goal of the project was to correlate as many individual burials as possible with historical tribal members, identifying those interred in unmarked graves or those marked with natural, non-inscribed rock... Finally, the project set about to define connections between the oldest known mortuary traditions of the Catawba and those customs used in this historic burial ground."
