The Taliaferro site is a multi-component site located in the Green River Basin. Pollen samples were collected from this site during archaeological excavations to examine both paleoenvironment and subsistence. Occupation ranges from approximately 5290 to 960 years B.P., with the majority of the occupation falling post-1500 years B.P. Two stratigraphic columns were sampled at the site to provide data for the paleoenvironmental reconstruction. The later occupations (post-2900 years B.P.) are...
The Tanque Verde High School Archaeological Project: Excavations at a Hohokam Limited Activity Site in the Northeastern Tucson Basin (2005)
Archaeological testing and data recovery at AZ B:9:360 (ASM), a Hohokam limited activity site in the northeastern Tucson Basin, resulted in the discovery of two roasting pits, an associated activity surface, and two large trash-filled pits. Botanical data suggest that the site was used for processing locally procured upper bajada wild plant resources as well as domesticated crops (maize). Chronometric data indicate a likely span of site use from the Rillito phase of the Colonial period to the...

Study of the archaeological record of 6 test pits to identify a recommended mitigation strategy for the site.
A TEST OF POLLEN PRESERVATION AT ERBIE CAMPGROUND, NEWTON COUNTY ARKANSAS (1987)
Four pollen samples were submitted for analysis from a soil core removed from the Erbie Campground site in Newton County, Arkansas. These samples were collected in connection with archaeological mitigation and geomorphic analysis. Previous attempts at pollen analysis from southeastern Missouri have proven fruitless, so this analysis was undertaken to ascertain whether or not pollen was preserved in this core.
Testing and Data Recovery at the Nance Site (AZ U:9:276[ASM]), Mesa, Maricopa County, Arizona (2007)
The Nance Site was a seasonally occupied field house site located in the interior of the Salt River floodplain. Current evidence indicates that the site was sporadically occupied in the late Pioneer through the middle Classic periods. Stratigraphic evidence suggests a human presence in the general vicinity of the site during the Early Agricultural/Early Ceramic Periods; a single thermal pit (Feature 19) was found 1.4 m below the surface. The economic activities of the Hohokam inhabitants...
Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 (2012)
At first glance, the potential for sub-Mogollon Rim archaeology sites is not promising. This region, east of Payson and Star Valley, Arizona, is characterized by single-room masonry structures and artifact scatters covered with thick stands of manzanita and pine duff. Many artifact scatters are comprised solely of small pieces of flaked stone; others have pieces of plain brown ware ceramics that blend in easily with the ground cover. However, beneath these less-than-dramatic surface...
Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 Payson to Heber - Christopher Creek Section and Sharp Creek Campground (2014)
In this volume, the easternmost portion of the State Route (SR) 260 —Payson to Heber Archaeological project is described. Driving east from where the SR 260 project begins near Payson, Arizona, the environment changes from rolling hills and meadows to narrow ridges and perennial streams. There are few open areas as the road winds between the Mogollon Rim to the north and Christopher Mountain to the south. Prehistoric and historic sites are situated on the hills and terraces above the permanent...
Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 Payson to Heber - Little Green Valley Section (2018)
This report describes testing and data recovery excavations conducted in advance of the realignment of the Little Green Valley section, of State Route 260 between Payson and Heber. The work was sponsored by the Arizona Department of Transportation; the lead federal agency and landowner was the Tonto National Forest. Seven sites were investigated in the Little Green V alley section: Ponderosa Campground, AZ O :12:19/AR-03-12-04-1159 (ASM /TNF); Junco Springs, AZ O:12:87/AR-03-12-04-1437 (ASM/...
Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 Payson to Heber – Christopher Creek Section and Sharp Creek Campground (2014)
Archaeological testing and data recovery were conducted at seven prehistoric or multicomponent sites and three historic period linear sites in advance of highway realignment in the Christopher Creek section and Sharp Creek Campground portion of the State Route 260 – Payson to Heber project. The results of the investigations of the seventeen prehistoric, historic, or multicomponent sites are reported in this volume. The results of the archival research on the historic period sites will be...
Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 Payson to Heber – Kohls Ranch Section (2017)
Archaeological testing and data recovery were conducted at twelve prehistoric or multicomponent sites in advance of highway realignment in the Kohls Canyon section of the State Route 260—Payson to Heber project. The results of archaeological fieldwork are reported in this volume. Archival research on the history of Camp Geronimo, AZ O:12:75 (ASM) is also reported here. An administrative history of Indian Garden, AZ O:12:32 (ASM) is published separately, as Desert Archaeology, Inc. Technical...

The results of the archival research and fieldwork on the historic period sites will be reported in a separate volume.
Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 Payson to Heber-Kohls Ranch Section (2017)
The Kohls Ranch highway section lies at the center of the State Route (SR) 260 —Payson to Heber project area. This section also crosses a number of central places of the past. Here, near its headwaters, Tonto Creek is a mountain stream, whose terraces widen briefly near the highway before the canyon narrows into the Hells Gate Wilderness to the south. Indian Garden, a mile to the east, is a spring-fed meadow. Geology transitions in this area, as the topography created by the friable granites to...
Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 Payson to Heber—Doubtful Canyon Section (2018)
The planned realignment of State Route 260 (SR 260) between Payson and Heber by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) resulted in a multiphase archaeological investigation of the associated right-of-way and Area of Potential Effects (APE). The construction project includes 45.8 miles of highway. Numerous archaeological sites were identified during initial surveys in the project area along the western portion of the project area, below the Mogollon rim and on the Tonto National Forest...
Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 Payson to Heber—Doubtful Canyon Section (2022)
Archaeological test excavations at nine sites and data recovery excavations at three sites in advance of highway realignment project in the Doubtful Canyon section of the SR 260—Payson to Heber project. A previously documented historic highway is also present in the project area. A small supplemental survey of additional right-of-way was conducted, although that work resulted in no newly identified sites.
Times of Transition: Excavations at the Pima Animal Care Center, Tucson, Pima County, Arizona (2018)
Excavations at the Pima Animal Care Center (PACC) revealed a unique portion of the prehistoric Hohokam landscape. Uncovered were the vestiges of a settlement that was occupied for two short periods at the beginning and the end of the Hohokam pre-Classic. Both periods of occupation occurred during times of transition in the prehistoric Tucson Basin. The Tortolita phase occupation corresponds with the founding of villages and the transition to Hohokam lifeways throughout southern and central...
