Late Pueblo (Temporal Keyword)
1-6 (6 Records)
SRI conducted an archaeological survey for ring-midden features using lidar data in three localities in the foothills of the Guadalupe Mountains and Sacramento Mountains in southeastern New Mexico. The unique shape and prominence of ring middens were identified by remote sensing data and then verified in the field within the sampled areas. The result supports the use of lidar data for project scoping and landscape-level studies, but cannot substitute for Section 106 inventory due to the...
Archaeological Prospection for Ring-Midden Features in Southeastern New Mexico Using Lidar Data: An Experimental Study (2015)
The final report presents the methodology and results of this experimental study to see if remote sensing data alone is able to identify the presence of ring-midden features. Lidar data obtained for sample areas was then verified on the ground, and found to be successful in identifying all but disturbed or low-profile ring middens. Therefore, the use of lidar data is appropriate for project scoping and landscape area studies, but not as an alternative to Section 106 survey.
An Experimental Project to Conduct Digital Survey for Ring-Midden Features Using Lidar Data (2015)
This brochure explains to the public the cultural significance of ring-midden features, the prospect of using remote sensing data to locate them, and an outline of SRI's modeling study to show how digital survey data can assist archaeologists in defining the features and understanding patterns of the past.
The Kayenta Anasazi: Archaeological Investigations Along the Black Mesa Railroad Corridor, Volume 1 - Specialists' Reports (1986)
In 1969 the Salt River Project contracted the Museum of Northern Arizona (MNA) to excavate the prehistoric and ethnohistoric remains in the vicinity of the Navajo Generating Station (Page, Arizona), along the Black Mesa-Lake Powell railroad corridor, and in the immediate vicinity of the coal loading facility at the east end of the rail line south of Navajo National Monument. One hundred and twenty-three sites were identified, with 51 of those prehistoric sites excavated or tested. (The...
MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AND AMS RADIOCARBON AGE DETERMINATION OF A SAMPLE FROM THE TRADE WIND SITE (LA117405), LEA COUNTY, NEW MEXICO (2017)
The Trade Winds Site (LA117405), an artifact scatter, lies in a dune blowout basin in Lea County, southeastern New Mexico. Fill from a thermal feature was submitted for macrofloral analysis to recover and identify charred floral remains, including charcoal, suitable for AMS radiocarbon age determination, then date the appropriate material. The sample is expected to date between AD 200 and AD 1400 reflecting Jornada Mogollon/Early Pithouse - Late Pueblo occupation (Stacy Galassini, personal...
MACROFLORAL AND AMS RADIOCARBON ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM LA 2894, AN JORNADA MOGOLLON SITE LOCATED IN DOÑA ANA COUNTY, NEW MEXICO (2020)
Site LA 2894, a prehistoric, structural site, comprises numerous fire-cracked rock (FCR) features and a large artifact assemblage. This temporary Jornada Mogollon, Early to Late Pueblo (A.D. 900–1200) campsite contains evidence of activities focused on tool manufacture and resource processing. Two sediment samples, collected from levels 2 and 3 of Feature 1, an FCR assemblage, were submitted for macrofloral and AMS radiocarbon analyses.
