The A-Mountain drainage system is being designed by Parsons Brinkerhoff, Inc., for the City of Tucson to alleviate flooding in the residential neighborhood between A-Mountain and the Santa Cruz River. As part of the planning process, Desert Archaeology, Inc., performed an archaeological survey and archival study of the parcel of land on which the drainage system will be placed (Thiel 1993a). On the basis of this preliminary work, Desert Archaeology recommended that an archaeological testing...

This table contains Madison point base counts by unit.

DATASET William Engelbrecht.

Observations on Madison point bases from Eaton. Shape (1 = straight, 2 = incurvate, 3 = excurvate, 4 = indeterminate). Width (mm). Ears (none = 0, 1 = yes [1 or 2]). Unifacial (0 = bifacial, 1 = largely unifacial). Symmetry (0 = symmetrical base, 1 = asymmetrical base [not broken], 2 = 1 broken corner, 3 = both corners broken, 4 = can't be determined). Use Wear ( none = 0, yes = 1, [may include grinding]). Basal grinding is listed in comments if use wear not clearly present.

DATASET William Engelbrecht.

This table tabulates point mid-sections by unit. Point mid-sections that fit with point bases or tips are tabulated here and again in the "Point Refit Table." These mid-sections are believed to be from Madison Points. See also "Distribution of Projectile Points and Projectile Point Fragments."

This table summarizes point tips by unit. The intention is to include just Madison Point tips, but it is possible that some non-Iroquoian point tips are included.

Site 48SU261 is located in the Green River Basin, south of the town of Pinedale, Wyoming. It is situated within eolian sediments on a low ridge about five miles North of the New Fork River. The site contains an Early Archaic component dated to about 6900 BP and a Late Archaic component dating to 3950 BP. The site consists of two pit features that probably represent occupation structures, one of which contained features within the larger feature, and hearth features outside the presumed...

Pruitt Shelter No. 1 (3NW1308) is situated along a steep bluff face of the Buffalo River, Newton County, Arkansas. Site 3NW1308 is estimated to have been occupied during the Late Pleistocene or Early Holocene, as well as during the Early Archaic through the Late Mississippian, the latter represented by lithics recovered from the site. A midden that appears to have been deposited between approximately AD 600 and 1600 was sampled for pollen analysis.

Thirteen stratigraphic samples were submitted for pollen analysis from site 36WO80, Deer Park, Pennsylvania. The site is located along Tunkhannock Creek in Wyoming County. The stratigraphic record, including some flood episodes, represents an period of sediment accumulation during the Mid-to-Late-Archaic, based on recovery of projectile points.

One soil sample from Site 48SU6933, the Gobblers Know 327 site, was submitted for examination of pollen remains. This prehistoric open camp is located in Sublette County, southwestern Wyoming. Radiocarbon dates from two features at this site returned dates of 3660 ± 40 YBP and 5380 ± 40 YBP, indicating occupation of this site during the Pine Spring phase of the Late Archaic period, and the Opal phase of the Early Archaic period (Joni Stainbrook, personal communication, December 6, 2010). Pollen...

Site 48CR10089, the Hugus Cliffs Site, is located in the northwestern portion of the Kindt Basin. Situated on an alluvial fan at the base of Hugus Cliff and along the western margin of an unnamed tributary of Little Sage Creek, this site represents a Middle to Late Archaic open camp. Twelve features are situated within an extensive stain. Radiocarbon dates obtained from seven hearths place occupation generally between 4260 ± 30 and 4030 ± 30 BP, with a single intrusive hearth dating 1520 ± 30...

Site 48CR9097represents an Early to Late Archaic occupation containing five features and divided into a Prehistoric Camp and Faunal Block. Radiocarbon dates obtained for Feature 1, noted at a depth of 26–34 cmbgs, and Feature 3, recovered at a depth of 53–93 cmbgs are reported as 1800 ± 30 and 5300 ± 30 BP, respectively. Three pollen samples were examined from the Prehistoric Camp block, and two pollen samples were examined from the Faunal Block.

Site 13DB674 is situated on terrace within an actively cultivated cornfield extending southeast of the junction of east/west-trending Seippel Road and north/south-trending Cousins Road in Dubuque County, Iowa. A lithic artifact concentration consisting of tertiary flake reductions was discovered at the site, with cultural materials recovered from two separate stratigraphic formation members, recognized by geologists as Gunder (c. 10,500–3,000 BP) and Roberts Creek (c. 4,000–500 BP) (Leah Rogers,...

Samples from five ring middens at five sites in the Guadalupe Mountains of southeastern New Mexico were examined for pollen and macrofloral remains. These ring middens represent roasting pits or hearths with fire-cracked rock that were used from the Archaic to the Jornada Mogollon and up through the historic Apache period. The Apache are noted to still use these types of pits to roast agave (Diane Prather, personal communication, September 22, 2010). Radiocarbon dates from these features ranged...

Samples from the fill of three concentrations of burned rock and soil interpreted as hearths from sites 32MV318 and 32MV319 were examined for pollen and macrofloral remains. These sites are located in the Dos Republicas project area near Elm Creek, a tributary to the Rio Grande River, in southern Texas. Radiocarbon dates from these three features reflect Middle and Late Archaic occupations. Pollen and macrofloral analyses will be used to provide information concerning plant resources utilized by...
