The Sun America Data Recovery and Burial Removal Faunal (FAUNAL) Data sheet contains data on the faunal remains recovered during SSI's data recovery work in Unit 14 of Pueblo Grande (Soil Systems Project No. 97-24). The data set lists the provenience designation (PD) and Field Specimen (FS) number of the remains (Note that it is essential that the PD and FS remain associated to identify a given faunal specimen). If the specimen was recovered from an identified feature, the data set also provides...

The Sun America Data Recovery and Burial Removal Field Specimen Data sheet contains data about the artifact types recovered in each PD unit during the Sun America data recovery effort (SSI Project No. 97-24) at Pueblo Grande. It lists the PD number, the field specimen (FS) number (specimen numbers range from 1 to n for each PD unit), and the point location (PL) number (if applicable). The table then provides artifact type, lithic material (if applicable), lithic condition (if applicable), and...

The Sun America, Inc. Data Recovery and Burial Removal Provenience Designation (PD) data sheet summarizes the PD's excavated during the Sun America data recovery project (SSI Project No. 97-24) at Pueblo Grande. It is the master list for all excavated contexts in the Sun America data recovery effort. Thus, the data set provides data not only for the PD's excavated during the original data recovery project, but also for the contexts excavated during the Ruby Tuesday's data recovery and burial...

Between March 1999 and March 2000, Soil Systems, Inc. (SSI) archaeologists completed a partial data recovery and burial removal project (SSI Project No. 99-01) for Kitchell Development Co. on a parcel (Unit 15) along the east side of the large Hohokam village site Pueblo Grande (AZ U:9:1(ASM)) in Phoenix, Arizona. The data recovery fieldwork was preceded by a two-phase testing project (SSI Project No. 97-08) designed to identify and locate subsurface cultural remains. Phase 1 testing...

From February to April 2007, Soil Systems archaeologists completed an archaeological data recovery and burial removal project (SSI Project No. 06-03) on a parcel of land (Unit 15) along the east side of Pueblo Grande (AZ U:9:1(ASM)). SSI performed the archaeological clearance for the Lauth Property Group, LLC. SSI's previous work in this same parcel under Project Nos. 97-08 and 99-01 resulted in the archaeological clearance of a section of the property for the Kitchell Development Co. (see...

Between A.D. 1250 and 1450, a large number of ceremonial racetracks were built at and between villages in north-central Arizona. This assemblage began as a relatively dispersed collection, stretching from the Sedona area down to Cave Creek and from the Bradshaw Mountains to the Mazatzal Wilderness. Over time, the racetrack network grew in intensity but became spatially focused atop Perry Mesa, along the middle Agua Fria River. In conjunction with the Legacies on the Landscape Project and...

A geophysical survey was conducted at the King Williams Narrows Campground in 1987. Three stone circles were visible at the surface during that survey, and there was a radar echo from an object below one of these circles. Since the time of that survey, three additional stone circles have been mapped at the site, and this report is a second look at the geophysical data from those locations. There are no distinctive geophysical patterns at any of the three additional stone circles. Since these...

Mariah Associates, Inc. (Mariah), under contract with the United States Army Corps of Engineers, Fort Worth District, is conducting a reconnaissance inventory of Cold War material culture on selected Air Force bases throughout the continental United States and in Panama for the Air Combat Command (ACC (Figure 1.1). As each base is inventoried, a report is completed. Once all 27 bases in the study have been inventoried, a final report will be compiled integrating all evaluated resources and...

Due to the nature of the find, any contextual analysis of the artifact would be purely speculative. The bayonet was recovered from a deep excavation pit which contained several layers of artificial fill which had, over time, been added on top of the natural strata of the original ground surface. Without out knowing the exact positioning within the layers it can not be determined if the artifact was in its original place of deposition or it was brought in as part of the fill. The area of...

On Thursday, October 22nd 2009, Fort Lee archaeologists were asked to report to the construction area off of Carver Avenue between Sisisky and 5th Avenues. After arriving at the site, the archaeologist recovered a heavily corroded bayonet which had been inadvertently excavated by heavy machinery. The area of discovery was an approximately ten foot deep excavated pit within the limits of construction. After the surrounding area was searched for additional cultural remains it was determined...

During March of 1992 a small scale investigation involving archaeological monitoring was undertaken in connection with the creation of a utility trench in an area located between the Captain 's House and the post chapel at the Presidio of Tubac site. The work conducted included monitoring of the excavation of the trench and the creation of a series of profile drawings of the stratigraphy exposed. Because of rainy conditions a collection of artifacts was made from the soils disturbed by earth...

This report provides documentation for archaeological data recovery conducted within a four-acre parcel. The parcel includes a roughly 0.73-acre area within the recorded boundary of the prehistoric Hohokam site of Pueblo Grande, AZ U:9:1(ASM). Data recovery efforts were designed to recover human remains and collect information from a sample of non-burial features in order to mitigate the impacts of proposed commercial development within the project area. Fifty-one archaeological features were...

During late September, 1989, and again in mid-October, personnel from the Midwest Archeological Center conducted archeological investigations at Grand Portage National Monument. Those efforts were precipitated by the planned installation of a new drainage system within the reconstructed fur trade Depot. That drain would function to remove ground water from two replicated structures inside the Depot, namely, the Kitchen and the Great Hall. Prior to installation of the drain, seven test units were...

The purpose of the monitoring was to identify and record cultural resources in the vicinity of the plotted location of an unnamed prehistoric canal projected to cross the project area. This document presents the results of archaeological monitoring after the installation of a water heater. LSD inspected the water heater installation within the vicinity of a relict canal projected to occur in the project area. No ground disturbing activity was accomplished during the water heater installation.
