The hideouts, lookout points, temporary camps, and concealed communities of runaway slaves may be difficult to locate using traditional methods of archaeological survey. These locations were intentionally made inconspicuous, were likely kept clean of surface refuse, and may have been placed in atypical landscape settings. As well, these sites may be small in size and likely contain only a few durable goods. A typical archaeological survey that combines screened shovel tests on a 20 m interval with surface survey for structural features is not well suited to the discovery of Maroon refuge sites. If these important resources are to be discovered, typical methods should be augmented with a GIS-based consideration of locational factors and controlled metal-detector survey. ____________________________________________
