Sunset Crater Archaeology: The History of a Volcanic Landscape, Prehistoric Settlement in the Shadow of the Volcano (2011)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: adam brin

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.

DOCUMENT Full-Text Jon S. Czaplicki. Adrianne G. Rankin.

Approximately 600 acres of additional right-of-way in Reach 3 were surveyed in late 1983 and early 1984. Fourteen new sites were identified, of which nine received ASM site numbers.
