Checklist of Criteria for Prehistoric Site Evaluation1
Scientific Significance
-
Does the site contain evidence which may substantially enhance understanding of culture, history, culture process, or other aspects of local and regional prehistory? What specific research questions can this site answer?
• internal stratification and depth • tool types indicative of specific socioeconomic or religious activity
• chronologically sensitive cultural items • cultural features such as burials, dwellings, hearths, etc.
• materials for absolute dating • diagnostic faunal and floral materials
• association with ancient landforms • exotic cultural items and materials
• quantity and variety of tool types • uniqueness or representativeness of the site
• distinct intra-site activity areas • integrity of the site
-
Does the site contain evidence which may be used for experimentation aimed at improving archaeological methods and techniques?
• monitoring impacts from artificial or natural agents
• site preservation or conservation experiments
• data recovery experiments
• sampling experiments
• intra-site spatial analysis
-
Does the site contain evidence, which can make important contributions to paleo-environmental studies?
• topographical, geomorphological context
• depositional character
• diagnostic faunal, floral data
-
Does the site contain evidence which can contribute to other specific disciplines such as hydrology, geomorphology, pedology, meteorology, zoology, botany, forensic medicine, and environmental hazards research, or to industry including forestry and commercial fisheries?
Public Significance
-
Does the site have potential for public use in an interpretive, educational or recreational capacity?
• integrity of site
• technical and economic feasibility of restoration and development for public use
• visibility of cultural features and their ability to be easily interpreted
• accessibility to the public
• opportunities for protection against vandalism
• representativeness and uniqueness of the site
• aesthetics of the local setting
• proximity to established recreation areas
• present and potential land use
• land ownership and administration
• legal and jurisdictional status
• local community attitude toward development
-
Does the site receive visitation or use by tourists, local residents or school groups?
Ethnic Significance
-
Does the site or site locality presently have traditional, social or religious importance to a particular group of community?
• ethnographic or ethnohistoric reference
• local community recognition of, and concern for, the site
Economic Significance
-
What value or user-benefits may be placed on the site?
• visitors’ willingness-to-pay
• visitors’ travel costs

Indicators for Assessing Impacts on Archaeological Sites
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Magnitude The amount of physical alteration or destruction which can be expected. The resultant loss of archaeological value is measured either in amount or degree of disturbance.
Severity The irreversibility of an impact. Adverse impacts that result in a totally irreversible and irretrievable loss of archaeological value are of the highest severity.
Duration The length of time and adverse impact persists. Impacts may have short-term or temporary effects, or conversely, more persistent, long-term effects on archaeological sites.
Range The spatial distribution, whether widespread or site-specific, or an adverse impact.
Frequency The number of times an impact can be expected. For example, an adverse impact of variable magnitude and severity may occur only once. An impact such as that resulting from cultivation may be of recurring or ongoing nature.
Diversity The number of different kinds of project-related actions to affect an archaeological site.
Cumulative Effect A progressive alteration or destruction of a site owing to the repetitive nature of one or more impacts.
Rate of Change The rate at which an impact will effectively alter the integrity or physical condition of an archaeological site. Although an important level-of-effect indicator, it is often difficult to estimate in Stage 2. Rate of change is normally assesses during or following project construction.

Minimum Standards for Determinations of Eligibility
Archaeology
We want simple basics: Who did the work and their training/qualifications? What is the project and what are the resources? When was the work done? Where is the project and resources? How are the resources going to be treated and how will the project affect them? Why did you do the things you did?
Keep these in mind and look for evidence for:
-
integrity of deposits and how determined;
-
site boundaries and how determined (surface and sub-surface);
-
artifact densities as surface and density per cubic meter, and how determined;
-
artifact variety in types and how determined;
-
site depth and how determined;
-
site components and how determined;
-
site potentials for improving culture history and how determined;
-
potentials for dating and how determined;
-
potentials for faunal and floral analysis and how determined;
-
potential for intra-site features and/or stratigraphy and how determined;
-
potential research questions and how determined?
