Systematic Metal Detector Survey - NOI, not a request for proposals: The proposed project is a systematic, non-invasive metal detector survey of a 45-acre parcel at FOUN situated immediately southwest and southeast of the 1861-1863 FOUN Second Fort, the area where the 1st Colorado allegedly camped for 84 days in 1862. The survey will aim to identify, plot, and map the surviving physical remnants of the 1st Colorado encampment. Surviving physical remnants of the camp likely include such archeological features as tent depressions, cooking hearths, and latrines. The metal detector survey of the 1862 1st Colorado encampment will provide scholars crucial information about daily life and behavior among volunteer infantry regiments during the Civil War. Regular army officers (Union and Confederate) frequently criticized volunteer infantry regiments, complaining about their unprofessionalism and lack of military discipline. By examining the physical layout of the FOUN's 1862 1st Colorado encampment, scholars will be able to gauge the degree to which one particular volunteer regiment actually conformed to (or strayed from) established military regulations dictating camp design.
