Abstract
Interpretation of the written historic record
was combined with observation of alluvial land forms
to construct the history of sedimentation at a historic
mill site, and to inform possibilities for flood protection.
The results correctly predicted additional, previously
hidden remains and demonstrate the crucial role
of sedimentation in the village's economic history.
