The Society for Pennsylvania
Archaeology, Inc. was organized in 1929 to: Promote the
study of the prehistoric and historic archaeological resources of
Pennsylvania and neighboring
states; Encourage scientific research and discourage exploration
which is unscientific or irresponsible in intent or practice;
Promote the conservation of archaeological sites, artifacts,
and information; Encourage the establishment and maintenance of sources
of archaeological information such as museums, societies, and
educational programs; Promote the dissemination of archaeological
knowledge by means of publications and forums; Foster the exchange of
information between the professional and the avocational archaeologists. Rock Art of the Upper Ohio Valley by James L. Swauger On CD-ROM in PDF format for use with Adobe Reader Copyright 1974 Akademische Druck- u. Verlagsanstalt, Graz, Austria. Reproduced with permission. Digitization and CD production by AKF, Inc., Pittsburgh. In 1974, James L. Swauger published the
landmark book Rock Art of the Upper Ohio, which still stands today as
the most comprehensive study of Native American
petroglyphs in this area. Since the book had a limited print run
and
was produced in Austria, it was difficult to obtain in the United
States,
even when it first appeared. I therefore considered it a rare
opportunity
when I purchased a copy in mint condition at a recent Society for
Pennsylvania
Archaeology meeting. I then launched an effort to digitize this
copy
so that future researchers would be able to access Swauger’s work more
easily.
Although the enclosed CD doesn’t match the grandeur of the original 10
¾”
x 14 ¼” hardcover version (printed in black and white), the
information
and images are captured for your benefit. All proceeds from the
sale
of this CD benefit the Society for Pennsylvania
Archaeology.
