This is a rather generalized question for this email list, but I thought some people here would have an answer. In your professional opinion, does shovel testing produce viable results in archaeological field surveys? How often can you actually find new archaeological sites through shovel testing in the field? I work in Oklahoma and I have had to do a lot of shovel testing for field surveys throughout the state. I have heard off and on that shovel testing is not at all helpful for finding new sites (depending on the region, at least), and I have come to question its usefulness myself. I was just curious about the general opinion on the matter.
