Excerpt from Smithsonian Institution, Bureau of American Ethnology, Bulletin, 1957, Vol. 164: Anthropological Papers; Numbers 49-56
The Ormond Beach project was originally planned as the first of a series of excavations in a 6-month project to be conducted in Volusia County under Smithsonian Institution sponsorship, with funds from the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (fera) of Florida, which took over the Federal relief program when the Civil Works Administration (cwa) was discontinued in April 1934. As it turned out, funds proved to be available only for the investigation of the Ormond Beach mound; this was excavated with a limited labor force between April 13 and May 21, 1934. Dr. M. W. Stirling, then di rector oi the Smithsonian Institution area research program in Flor ida, and chief of the Bureau of American Ethnology, selected the site for investigation. Jesse D. Jennings was the archeologist in charge of the excavations.
