Friends of Gold Butte invited NVFCP to speak about how folks can preserve archaeology in Nevada.
Rayette Martin-NVFCP Executive Director and Public Archaeologist provided a Zoom presentation that covered the types of cultural sites found in Nevada, the laws that protect them, and how everyone can participate in preservation efforts.
Means to participate included:
- Signing and following the ethics in the Citizen Steward Pledge
- Training to be an OHV Preservation Ambassador
- Volunteering to clean sites including graffiti remediation
- Supporting Archaeology as a field
- Learning and Sharing what was learned with others
A great Q/A session followed the presentation with tips on how to report if you find someone actively vandalizing, what to do about cleaning up modern trash left in historic trash piles, and more.
