Hecla I: A Preliminary Report on the Archaeological Investigations at the Lakeshore Project, Papago Reservation, South Central Arizona (1973)
Late in 1971, the Department of Anthropology at Arizona State University was contacted by the Hecla Mining Company regarding impending construction of plant facilities at the Lakeshore Mine Project.

The existence of many archaeological remains within the construction zone was known as a result of surveys conducted by Mr. Garland Gordon of the Arizona Archaeological Center, National Park Service, Tuscon. Investigations...
Hinkson Site Palynology (1990)
Use of sediment samples collected from the Hinkson Site for a classroom research project late in 1989 provided opportunity to extract and examine the pollen they contained. Since the effort was undertaken by students with no prior experience of pollen study, the raw data is to some degree suspect. However, the student work was supervised by experienced personnel, and students were encouraged to rely on supervisory help whenever a problematic issue arose. The samples should be re-observed before...

Historic Cultural Resources in Relation to the Central Arizona Water Control Study (1983)
Flooding along the Salt, Gila, Verde, and Agua Fria Rivers in February and March of 1978 resulted in extensive damage to property in Central Arizona and in the disruption of ground transportation and commerce in the greater Phoenix area. Major flooding also occurred along these rivers in December, 1978 and February, 1980. The recognition of this flooding problem, and of requirements for the regulatory storage of Central Arizona Project (CAP) water, prompted the U.S. Department of the Interior,...

A History of Indian Garden, An Administrative Site on the Tonto National Forest, Gila County, Arizona (2007)
Located along a spring-fed stream, Indian Garden has attracted and supported as wide a range of activities as perhaps any site in the area below the Mogollon Rim. Recent work by Desert Archaeology has shown that prehistoric people used the Indian Garden area as early as 770 B.C., and that Apaches exploited the locality during the early twentieth century (Ferguson and Anyon 2000a; Sarah Herr, personal communication 2007). From the 1880s to the turn of this century, the site served sequentially as...
Holcombe Caribou People in the Light of Studies of Similar Surviving Hunters (1967)
This article describes the behaviors and migratory patterns of caribou and the hunting practices that the Holcombe people used to catch them. Wahla draws some comparisons of these practices with the Eskimo and other northern groups, as well as some comparisons with the buffalo hunting groups of the plains. This resource is a pre-print version of the published article in the Totem Pole, the bulletin of the Aboriginal Research Club.

The Importance of Cultural Resource Management to Industrial Archaeology (2019)
Cultural resource management (CRM) and industrial archaeology are newer fields to the broad scope of archeology. CRM and industrial archaeology both have methods on identifying and processing cultural resources, but CRM can provide valuable methods on preserving, reusing or identifying industrial heritage. This paper will display how CRM and industrial archaeology are needed together to fully understand the cultural importance and physical important of the building in the past and present.
