description: This public education is a component of an undertaking entitled Salado Draw Archaeological Survey, Small-scale Excavation, and Geomorphological Characterization, GSA Contract No. GS-10F-0396P. The work was commissioned by the U.S. Department of Interior Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Carlsbad Field Office (CFO) as part of research carried out under the Permian Basin Programmatic Agreement, Blanket Purchase Agreement No. 11, Contract No. L14PA00010. It addresses Task 17 (public education report) in the Statement of Work. Other components of the larger Salado Draw investigation are published separately and consist of Task 11 (report of Salado Draw survey, testing, and project synthesis; Cason, Heilen, Leckman, et al. 2023); Task 12 (report of the study of mortar holes in Salado Draw; Cason, Heilen, and Babicz 2023); Task 13 (Salado Draw geomorphological study; Onken 2023); Task 16 (Salado Draw use-wear analyses; Branyan and Adams 2022; Cason 2022b; Harro 2022); and Task 15 (starch pilot study, Perry 2023). This report summarizes the larger study for a wider, public audience.
