Investigations in Kiln centered around five previously known sites that ranged from the Paleoindian to the early 20th century. In order to further our knowledge of the timbering industry in south Mississippi, one unlisted historic sawmill was also chosen. Archaeologists completed fieldwork in three of the four proposed survey areas, recording two new sites and revisiting four previously recorded sites. Investigators encountered primarily 19th and 20th century historic remains associated with these sites.
