Pueblo Grande (AZ U:9:1(ASM)): Unit 15, Washington and 48th Streets: Soil Systems, Inc. Lauth Property Group Data Recovery

In a development plan proposed in 1999, two areas were to be excavated below grade for a building foundation and a runoff detention basin and the rest of the parcel was to be resurfaced at grade. Because this parcel is immediately east of the Iarge Hohokam village site of Pueblo Grande (AZ U:9:1(ASM)), a two-phase testing program determined the distribution of intact prehistoric cultural remains and established that mortuary features with human remains would be impacted if the existing...

From February to April 2007, Soil Systems archaeologists completed an archaeological data recovery and burial removal project (SSI Project No. 06-03) on a parcel of land (Unit 15) along the east side of Pueblo Grande (AZ U:9:1(ASM)). SSI performed the archaeological clearance for the Lauth Property Group, LLC. SSI's previous work in this same parcel under Project Nos. 97-08 and 99-01 resulted in the archaeological clearance of a section of the property for the Kitchell Development Co. (see...

The Lauth Data Recovery Faunal (FAUNAL) Data sheet contains data on the faunal remains recovered during SSI's additional recovery work in Unit 15 of Pueblo Grande. The data set lists the provenience designation (PD) and Field Specimen (FS) number of the remains (Note that it is essential that the PD and FS remain associated to identify a given faunal specimen). If the specimen was recovered from an identified feature, the data set also provides the feature number and feature type. The data sheet...

The Lauth project Field Specimen (FS) Data sheet contains basic artifact data for the cultural material recovered in each PD unit. It lists the PD number, the specimen (FS) number (specimen numbers range from 1 to n for each PD unit), and the point location (PL) number (if applicable). Please note that a combination of a PD number AND FS number is necessary to identify an artifact specimen. The table then provides data on artifact type, lithic material (if applicable), lithic condition (if...

The Lauth project Provenience Designation (PD) data sheet summarizes the PD's excavated during the project's data recovery efforts. It is the master list for all excavated contexts (i.e., trenches, excavation units, features, sub-features, etc) in the Lauth data recovery effort. It contains information about each PD and the features recorded during excavation.

The Lauth project Ceramic Rough Sort (RS_CERAMICS) Data sheet contains data from the rough sort analysis of ceramics recovered during the Lauth data recovery project. It contains information on ceramic types, tempers and counts; it also records vessel and rim forms where applicable. The data sheet also contains rim circumference and rim diameter measurements for some ceramic specimens.
