Description: Map of battlefield core and study areas. The revised Study Area includes the Confederate approach route into Thibodaux - a rapid movement made with the intention of destroying the Federal garrison there - and the route over which the Federals pursued the retreating Confederates to the south. The ABPP mapped new Core Areas in Thibodaux and Schriever to represent the opening skirmishes on June 20 and fighting along the Confederate route of retreat on June 21, respectively.
