The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation was created by Congress in 1902 to build irrigation projects in the West. The Salt River Project, as one of the first reclamation projects, in a sense owes its life to the Bureau. However, the passage of the Reclamation Act was due in large part to the political influence of private citizens in the West, with prominent roles played by citizens of the Salt River Valley. So the Bureau at least partly owes its life to the Salt River Project. The two organizations have...

Structural racism and archaeological practice - the archaeology of razed African American industrial communities. (2017)
The coal company towns found throughout West Virginia and Central Appalachia were compact, racially diverse communities housing African Americans, white americans, and various european immigrant groups. However, when the industry contracted after World War II, racial firing practices meant that many African American families were forced to leave the area. These newly vacant lots were often repurposed for further industrial use, effectively destroying the material record of many of the African...
Studies Along the Lower Agua Fria River: The Eastwing Site and the Marinette Canal (1987)
Two sites, one prehistoric and one historic, situated northwest of Phoenix and in the south-central part of Arizona, are discussed. Limited field excavation and archival research reveal that the historic site, the Marinette Canal (NA18,267), built in 1910, may have been fed by well water, local runoff, and the seasonal flow of the Agua Fria River. It heads along Calderwood Butte and extends almost 10 km southward toward the present community of Sun City, Arizona. The prehistoric site, the...

Sunken Aircraft of the Battle of Midway (2017)
