In the season of 1958, a fifty-room pueblo was excavated, located on the ranch of Mr. Mark Davis, who permitted the excavation of the site and to ship back to the Museum all of the materials that were recovered and that are described herein. The site was first reported by Spier (1918). He noted the presence of Hopi-like yellow pottery and Zuni glazes from several other sites in the vicinity. Dr. John B. Rinaldo observed the pueblo in 1956 during the course of his extensive survey of the...

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...

Site AZ Q:2:35 (ASM) was originally recorded as a sherd and lithic scatter during an earlier survey of the proposed expanded right-of-way (ROW) of the Salt River Project (SRP) Coronado Coal Haul Railroad (Neily and Irwin 1990). At the request of SRP, SWCA, Inc. Environmental Consultants, initiated testing at the site using systematic backhoe trenching (Boden 1991). Archaeological testing identified six subsurface features, including five pits and one concentration of burned sandstone. None of...

This report summarizes the results of two field seasons of archeological work in the Wawona Valley, Yosemite National Park, California. The investigations were necessitated by plans to construct new water and sewage treatment facilities in the Wawona area. Each site was chosen for investigation because of the possibility of adverse impact as a result of construction activities. However, in every case of potential impact, planners and designers associated with the construction projects were able...

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...

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...

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...

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.
