Aboriginal and historic site locations within Cedar Beach County Park. (U.S.G.S. 1956) SD 125B-r-- 1 . LAND USE A. Aboriginal Aboriginal activity on the most southerly extremity of Great Hog Neck would be primarily marine-oriented. . Cedar Beach Creek, which is protected from the more turbulent open waters of Little Peconic Bay, presents an attractive marine sustenance environment. For that matter, most of Great Hog Neck presents a potentially-attractive environment for prehistoric hunters and gatherers. However, the topography of this neck of land would only be attractive for habitation during milder seasons. Elevations over a great portion of the peninsula do not exceed 10 m. , thereby providing little protection from northwest winter winds. Since the undredged portions of the creek are quite shallow (1 m. +) and the thickness of the marsh mantle .5 to 1 .2 m. , inundation by rising sea levels occurred only about 1 ,000 years ago. Offshore soundings slope outward reaching a depth of 2 m. only after a distance of about 200 m. The rather expansive inland bodies of water that exist today might only have been small , fresh water, spring-fed creeks during the Late Woodland Period. B. Aboriginal Site Inventory Our reconnaissance of the area did not produce any evidence of potable water sources. However, the creeksjwithin this point of land) show evidence of considerable alteration by dredging. This activity may have eliminated any fresh water springs that may have existed in the immediate area. Since the existing marshlands are composed of a stratum of dredged material underlain by a natural deposition of organic silt, a surface reconnaissance of these islands was conducted. The tip of a quartz biface blade and a pc. of worked quartz were recovered from the surface of one island where a scattering of sand and gravel was noted. There- fore, five marsh curings were conducted in order to determine the existence or non-existence of aboriginal shell middens. These tests (30-C-3 to 30-C-7) indicated a stratum of organic silt that is from 57 - 127 cm. thick. No evidence of aboriginal exploitation was detected. Site 30-2 (Figure 3) A surface reconnaissance of the sandy beach in this area revealed the following artifactual material : many quartz flakes, many pcs. of bulky worked quartz, fire-cracked rock and bits of shell . Unfortunately, a surface reconnaissance of the nearby wooded area was inhibited by a thick forest mat of decayed vegetation. Sub- surface test 30-5-8 was , therefore, conducted at the juncture of the woodland and beach (where the surface scattering of aboriginal materials was present). The following artifactual material appeared at the transi- tional point of Strata II & III: bits of shell , 7 quartz flakes and coal flecks. SD 125B-C• 2 C, Historic As in most bay and harbor communities of Long Island, the exploi- tation of the environment was marine-oriented. Mrs. Ann Miller, a member of the Southold. Historical Society, commented on the history of shell - fishing between 1800 and 1900: The area was known as an excellent source of shellfish. This resource is still the object of exploitation by local inhabitants as a favored addition to their diets. D. Historic Site Inventory Site 30-1 (Figure 3) This building (a wood frame, two-story, cedar shingle dwelling) was constructed in the early 1900's. (J. Hill , personal communication) According to Mr. Hill , a noted rumrunner of the Prohibition Era (Madden) , and later, Helen Keller, were two of its most noted owners. (Plate i )- Two subsurface tests were conducted southeast of the dwelling in order to examine the soils for cultural material . One test (30-S-1 ) was unknowingly conducted in disturbed strata (as indicated by an irrigation pipe at 35 cm. below the surface). 30-S-2 yielded no artifactual material . E. Contemporary Cedar Beach Co. Park is, at present, undeveloped parkland. (Suffolk Co. Dept. of Parks, Recreation & Conservation 1979:6-7) II. CULTURAL RESOURCE ASSESSMENTS A. Aboriginal Unfortunately, much of the peripheral banks of Cedar Beach Creek have been subjected to dredging at various times. This reshaping of the landscape is a deterrent to the overall assessment of Indian demography and exploitation at this specific area. Site 30-2 verifies the susten- ance exploitation and habitation by local Amerinds but the actual size or content of the site will never be determined due to the dredging that was conducted through a portion of the site. Any future plans for development, therefore, should be preceded by the archaeological phase of an environmental impact statement particularly within those areas that have been designated sensitive for aboriginal exploitation activities. B. Historic The Madden-Keller structure (13-1 ) should be evaluated by an architectural historian and, based on the resultant recommendations, further researched.
