Re: El Portal Burial Mound & Archaeological Site by Flyvapnet on Tuesday, 09 November 2010

Today I received a communication from Ryan J. Wheeler Ph.D., State Archaeologist and Chief, Bureau of Archaeological Research, Florida Department of State, who informed me there's not a great deal of information about this site retained at the state level. The state refers to this site as 'Site No. 8Da20 / Site Name Little River'.

However, Dr. Wheeler forwarded to me copies of the relevant pages from the Florida Master Site File: DA00020.pdf. He also visited our site page and made the following observation:

"You will note that the site is recorded as a 'gv' or general vicinity, since the original files did not include maps and someone tried to plot the site's location based on the early site cards--I checked your web posting and see that you have a slightly different location (my guess--your plot is more accurate)."

Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
