Description


Punk Rock Shelter is located in Georgia (U.S. state)
The Punk Rock Shelter (9PM211) was an archaeological site found in Putnam County, Georgia. The site flooded in 1979, putting it 65 feet (20 m) under Lake Oconee. It was not actually a rock shelter, but a jumble of granite boulders or tors. These tors happened to create a shelter-like area. Unfortunately, due to poor land management in the 19th and 20th century associated with cotton farming, the shelter floor area is now underneath at least a meter deep of red clay and silt mud. The Native Americans at the site were most likely Hitchiti in ancestry.
