In preparation for renovations and new exhibits in Park Buildings 5, 7, 16 and 16A in Lower Town Harpers Ferry, Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, National Park Service archeologists conducted excavations in the yards of these buildings. A crew of four people excavated 11 units (typically 5 ft by 5 ft) in the backyards and under Park Building 16 where the flooring had been removed. This report presents the findings of an interdisciplinary effort covering topics beyond the basic descriptions of soils and artifacts.
