Description: Map of battlefield core and study areas. The ABPP expanded the 1993 Study Area in the north to include the Confederate and Union lines above Double Trouble Creek. The Study Area boundary was also narrowed slightly to account for the fact that most of the action associated with this running engagement closely followed the roads. The 1993 Core Areas have been adjusted to reflect the ranges of artillery employed during this battle. In addition to the 1993 Core Areas, two new Core Areas were added. The first is located north of Double Trouble Creek and represents the battle’s opening artillery duel. The second was added at the southern end of the battlefield to account for fighting within Carthage and to the east of town.
