76-100 (101 Records)
Strontium (Sr) isotope analyses of construction wood from the prehistoric Wupatki Pueblo in northern Arizona was undertaken to identify the source of the wood, given that Wupatki is located 20-30 km north of areas where suitable high elevation pine and fir trees are found. Unfortunately, due to the presence of high levels of blown-in dust, the Sr analysis of potential wood source areas could not distinguish between them, negating this research. A secondary goal was to investigate the possibility...

Sunset Crater Archaeology: The History of a Volcanic Landscape, Prehistoric Settlement in the Shadow of the Volcano (2011)
This volume explores human adaptation to catastrophic events, particularly to volcanic eruptions. Sunset Crater Volcano is located in the pine forests of northern Arizona, approximately 20 km north of the city of Flagstaff. The volcano was long thought to have erupted in A.D. 1064, with the eruption extending for several hundred years. Research presented here, however, suggests that Sunset Crater erupted for only a few years sometime between A.D. 1085 and 1090, when nearby areas were densely...

Testing Results and a Proposed Treatment Plan for Further Work on the Thompson Draw FLEX Project in Tonto National Forest, Gila County, Arizona (2001)
Test excavations were conducted at six sites to determine their National Register eligibility, prior to a land exchange. Three of the sites, AR-03-12-04-1397/AZ 0:12:81 (ASM), AR-03 -12-04-1403/AZ 0:12:82 (ASM), and AR-03-12-04-1521/AZ 0:12:85 (ASM), demonstrated low overall artifact density, small site size and an absence of subsurface features, and are therefore recommended as ineligible for National Register consideration.

The first period of occupation dates to the Sunset phase, from A.D. 800 to 950, when the southeast section of the monument was most obviously occupied; there is some indication of sporadic early use in other parts of the monument. There is a hiatus from around A.D. 950 to 1066, the date of eruption of Sunset Crater. At the beginning of the 12th century there is a dramatic increase in...
