Report on the fauna excavated at Gran Quivira from 1984-1986. Databases have been somewhat altered since this report was produced, but the overall trends are very likely to remain the same.

This document synthesizes information we gathered and inferences we drew concerning prehistoric water availability and agricultural production on a field trip to the Salinas area February 21‐23, 2014.

This report presents information on the University of Iowa field school excavations at Gran Quivira Pueblo from 1984-1986.This volume provides information on the research design, excavation units, excavation procedures, stratigraphy, and chronology. A second volume provides further information on the analyses of materials recovered.

Faunal data from the Gran Quivira archaeological project.

This dataset contains information on the ceramics recovered during the 1999-2000 ASU excavation seasons at Pueblo Blanco, New Mexico.

Excavations at Pueblo Blanco by Arizona State University resulted in the recovery of a large faunal assemblage containing a total of 64,733 specimens (Table 2). Approximately 32 percent of the assemblage, or 20,621 specimens, are considered identifiable. In this analysis, mammalian, avian, and reptilian fauna are classified as “identifiable” if the specimen can be classified to an order. Given the highly fragmented nature of fish bone, these remains are only identified to the class level.

Excavations at Gran Quivira (LA 120) in the Salinas area of central New Mexico by Dr. Katherine Spielmann, 1984-1986.

Archaeological investigations by Arizona State University in 1999-2000, directed by Katherine Spielmann and Billy Graves

Arizona State University field project directed by Katherine Spielmann in the summer of 1989.

Arizona State University project directed by Katherine Spielmann in the summers of 1992 and 1993.

This ontology translates the abbreviations for material type in the Quarai lithic databased.

This chronological ontology distills information from Spielmann's individual site reports for Gran Quirivia, Quarai, Pueblo Colorado, and Pueblo Blanco. Chronological data in those reports include radiocarbon dates, limited numbers of tree ring dates, stratigraphy and especially glaze rim sequences due to the large standard deviations associated with radio carbon dates from these sites (and these centuries in general). In those reports periods were designated by labels rather than date ranges....

This coding key is for the material type variable in the Gran Quivira lithics database. It is based on color and then on type, chert, chalcedony (translucent), obsidian, and quartzite. For at least some of the 1986 lithics, broader categories of obsidian, white chalcedony, quartzite, and miscellaneous materials were used. These were given codes 91-94 in this coding sheet. Other analyses also used broader material type categories. I have thus uploaded another coding sheet,...
