SRP uses FR 80 to access Horse Mesa Dam and associated facilities in eastern Maricopa County, Arizona. Also known as Horse Mesa Dam Road, FR 80 traverses rugged terrain between its point of origin at SR 88 and its terminus at the dam on the Salt River. The road requires periodic maintenance for its sustainable and safe use, and SRP intends to implement future road improvement projects in coordination with TNF. SRP contracted SWCA Environmental Consultants (SWCA) to conduct a Class III cultural...

LSD surveyed approximately 84 acres of SRP-owned land to identify, document, and evaluate cultural resources for their National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) eligibility; however, this project is not a Federal undertaking and no consultation under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act is required at this time. Recommendations for the treatment or avoidance of sites are offered for future management considerations. The survey resulted in the discovery of 1 previously recorded...

The Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District (SRP) requested that Logan Simpson conduct a Class Ill cultural resources inventory of 7,200 acres (275 miles) of the existing Western Transmission System (WTS) right-of- way (ROW) in Arizona, Utah, and Nevada. The project area is a linear easement for the existing extra-high voltage 500-kV transmission line, the WTS. The transmission line is part of the Navajo Generating Station (NGS) transmission system and extends from the NGS...

The archaeological survey of the Clifty Creek Reservoir basin was conducted to locate sites occurring in that area which would be destroyed by the water of the reservoir, and to recommend salvage operations for those whose cultural affiliations or size were of importance to the understanding of the prehistory of the area. The survey was financed under Purchase Order, 950-336 of the National Park Service, with living expenses and transportation provided by Indiana University. The Clifty Creek...

Fort Bliss played a pivotal role in the development and training of all Army air defense weapon systems throughout the Cold War. In recognition of the Fort Bliss cultural resource program initiated this project to identity and document Cold War-associated archaeological sites in Maneuver Areas 1 through 8. To that end Fort Bliss Directorate of Environment issued Task Order 11 to Lone Mountain under contract DABT-51-98-D-0042. A review of existing Fort Bliss site records and archival research...

This report documents data recovery excavations at the Elsinore site (CA-RIV-2798/H) which is located at the mouth of the outlet channel on the northeast side of Lake Elsinore, Riverside County, California. The project was conducted by Statistical Research, Inc., under contract with the Los Angeles District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in order to mitigate the adverse effects caused by the construction of an enlarged outflow channel. Lake Elsinore is one of the only natural lakes in southern...

Part 3 presents the analyses of ecofacts. These studies provide the bridge between the environmental background provided in Part 2 and the material culture studies in Part 4. Ecofactual analyses are aimed at helping us understand subsistence patterns throughout prehistory. Both the paleobotanical studies and the faunal remains demonstrate 8,500 years of continuity.

Part 4 presents the analyses of artifacts. Worked bone and lithic analyses inform on technology, whereas shell ornaments and beads provide hints about the more personal aspects of prehistoric life. Although minor changes in material culture emerge, the clear pattern is 8,500 years on continuity. Combined with the analyses presented in Part 3, these chapters provide the data to interpret site structure and address many of the research issues outline in Part 2.

Part 5 synthesizes the information presented in the report and places the site in its regional context. Because the site provides considerable time depth, issues such as change in site structure and social organization are addressed. This part demonstrates the unique nature of the Elsinore site both from a culture history perspective and as a database for archaeological research. We use this high-information site to reevaluate prehistory and to explore the challenges hunter-gathers faced over...

The results of investigations at 47 archaeological sites along the Coronado railroad corridor from St. Johns, Arizona, to Navajo, Arizona, are presented. Of the 47 sites, 14 were surface collected and recorded, 9 were tested, and 24 were excavated as fully as possible given the constraints of the impact corridor. Data contributing to the study of the Anasazi-Mogollon (Cibola) culture area are discussed in chapters on environment, architecture, ground stone, shell, and human skeletal remains. An...

Intensive archaeological field investigations along the Coronado-Silver King Transmission Line (North End) began in September, 1976. These investigations were conducted by the Museum of Northern Arizona under contract with the Salt River Project. Forty-six sites along the transmission line route required mitigation procedures; site recording, collection, testing, and excavation were conducted as appropriate. Subsequent laboratory analysis confirmed a number of impressions resulting from the...

The three volumes of The Coronado Project present a wealth of information on the archaeology of the Puerco Valley of east-central Arizona. Volume 2 presents the analytical data for each artifact category and for the biological resources. Project authors examine the available resources, their acquisition, and the paleoeconomy in relation to the physical setting of the project area sites. They also present results of the human remains analyses, including a review of the remains recovered from...
