Los Guanacos: One Hundred Years Later, Recent Documentary and Archaeological Research Concerning a Prehistoric Hohokam Site First Investigated by the Hemenway Expedition of 1887 - 1888 (1988)
Much current archaeological research into prehistoric Hohokam society deals with relationships among the variables of site size, types of architecture, chronological placement, and the development of the canal system through time. Unfortunately, an alarming number of Hohokam sites have been destroyed or severely altered during the last hundred years of agricultural and urban development in the Salt River Valley. Because of these losses, early historic descriptions of Hohokam sites are of vital...
The Lower Verde Archaeological Project
The Lower Verde Archaeological Project (LVAP) was a four-year data recovery project conducted by Statistical Research, Inc. (SRI) in the lower Verde River region of central Arizona. The project was designed to mitigate any adverse effects to cultural resources from modifications to Horseshoe and Bartlett Dams. The Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Arizona Project’s Office sponsored the research program in compliance with historic preservation legislation. The LVAP’s...
Mesquite Flat Arizona Site Steward File (1997)
This is an Arizona Site Steward file for the Mesquite Flat site, comprised of a Hohokam village with accompanying artifact scatter, located on Tonto National Forest land.

The file consists of a site data form, two maps of the site location, an unlabeled site information form, and a preliminary inventory form. The earliest dated document is from 1987.
Middle Gila Basin: An Archaeological and Historical Overview (1982)
The Central Arizona Project (CAP), Indian Distribution Division (IDD) is designed to deliver allocated CAP water to Indian users. The Middle Gila Basin Overview summarizes and evaluates the known cultural resources in an area 3,570 square miles (9,139 sq km) large, centered on the Gila River. A critical review of past research suggests that many of the concepts and theories used to describe and explain the past in the study area are suspect, that physical and biotic zonation in the study area...
The Middle Gila Basin: An Archaeological and Historical Overview (1982)
The Central Arizona Project (CAP) , Indian Distribution Division (IDD) is designed to deliver allocated CAP water to Indian users. The Middle Gila Basin Overview is the initial cultural resources planning study for the system. It summarizes and evaluates the extant data in an area 3,570 square miles (9,139 sq km) large, centered on the Gila River. The data suggests that archaeological sites in this area are numerous and varied, but most of all poorly-studied despite 100 years of research. A...
Migrants and Mounds: Classic Period Archaeology of the Lower San Pedro Valley (2012)
The results of archaeological research conducted as part of the Center for Desert Archaeology's (now Archaeology Southwest) San Pedro Preservation Project are presented in this volume. The fieldwork component of this project was conducted in the northern, or lower, San Pedro Valley from 1990 through 2001. Fieldwork included an extensive survey of the terraces overlooking the Lower San Pedro Valley floodplain (1990-1995). In the second phase of the project (1999-2001), test excavations were...
Mitigation Plan for the Salt-Gila Aqueduct (1979)
In 1978, the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) directed the Museum of Northern Arizona (MNA) to complete an intensive archaeological survey of the proposed alignment for the Salt-Gila Aqueduct, a feature of the Central Arizona Project. The survey area was 11,115 acres and included the 60 mile-long transmission line (with a typical width of 200 meters), three proposed utility line locations, one flood retention dike location, 11 possible spoil or realignment areas, and a subsidence well....
Monitoring of the Construction of the El Paso Natural Gas Pipeline Between Guadalupe Road and the Gila River Indian Community, Maricopa County, Arizona (1990)
Archaeological Consulting Services, Ltd. (ACS) monitored the excavation of an 11.73 mi (18.88 km) long trench for the El Paso Natural Gas (EPNG) pipeline in the cities of Mesa, Tempe, and Chandler. Archaeological monitoring was recommended because of the likelihood of crosscutting prehistoric irrigation canals and the close proximity of Alta Vista, a prehistoric Hohokam habitation site (AZ U:9:48 (ASM)). The monitoring was conducted in order to document these cultural resources when they became...
