Located along a spring-fed stream, Indian Garden has attracted and supported as wide a range of activities as perhaps any site in the area below the Mogollon Rim. Recent work by Desert Archaelogy has shown that prehistoric people used the Indian Garden area as early as 770 B.C., and that Apaches exploited the locality during the early twentieth century (Ferguson and Anyon 2000a; Sarah Herr, personal communication 2007). From the 1880s to the turn of this century, the site served sequentially as...
A History of the Chaco Navajos (1980)
The prehistory of the Chaco country will always remain a sphere dominated by the anthropological approach, for no contemporary written records of the human occupation were ever made. Any attempt to discern what took place must be reconstructed from the campsites, ruins, potsherds, and legends that supply a cloudy picture of developments and events seemingly lost in the passage of centuries. Each new generation is able to bring new tools and concepts into play in our efforts to produce an account...
A History of the Lands Composing the Avon Park Bombing Range (1983)
Giving an intimate history of the lands composing the Avon Park Bombing Range, this report is the result of the Avon Park Air Force Range participating in a program to identify and protect historic sites on government lands, particularly those located on their Air Force Range. Although the activities in the area may not have been significant within the definition of federal and state laws, installation personnel felt that sites of local interest should be identified and described. Without this...
A History of the Lands Occupied by Naval Weapons Station Charleston (2002)
This report concentrates on the history of the plantations that were once located within the boundaries of Charleston Naval Weapons Station (NWSC). The NWSC is a large tract (17,000 acres) situated on the west side of the Cooper and Back Rivers, approximately 15 miles from Charleston. Currently comprised of four main areas: Northside, Marrington, Southside and South Annex, the land occupied by NWSC was home to many historic plantations. Each of the four large modern tracts is a collection of...
Honey Production in Modern and Ancient Yucatán: Going from the Known to the Unknown (2014)
According to historic documents and scarce archaeological data, apiculture with the stingless bee, Melipona beecheii, was significant in the diet, economy, tribute, medicine, and ritual practices of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica. Current practices with stingless bees give us a frame of reference for interpreting archaeological data. This paper focuses on the ethnoarchaeological studies carried out in Yucatán, Mexico. Soil samples collected from underneath and near modern beehives, as well as samples...

Household Ecology and the Legacy of the Secondary Products Revolution in Yucatán (2016)
In this paper, we examine the changes in household ecology that resulted from the introduction of European domesticates to Yucatán after the Spanish invasion. New animals and plants were not adopted wholesale as a Euroagrarian suite in the sixteenth century. Instead, heterogeneous practices took root in highly altered demographic and environmental settings. Ecosystems were re-engineered as animals moved into new anthropogenic niches. We compare archaeological and ethnoarchaeological evidence of...
Howell_Hawikku_Paper and Metadata_In With the Old: Examining Issues in Using Older Mortuary Data (2011)
The use of mortuary data collected early this century poses a number of problems and opportunities. In this paper I address some of these issues with respect to mortuary databases from the ancestral Zuni villages of Hawikku and Kechipawan. These data were collected in the 1910s and 1920s; the excavations had goals that were somewhat different than current goals. This paper explores the basic qualities of these databases and the challenges of making the data comparable to other...
Humbug! The Historical Archaeology of Placer Mining on Humbug Creek in Central Arizona (1922)
In June 1986 the Bureau of Reclamation awarded Dames & Moore a contract for historical archaeological studies as part of the mitigation program for the Regulatory Storage Division (Plan 6) of the Central Arizona Project. While investigating dam construction camps along the Agua Fria River near Lake Pleasant, we discovered remnants of a late nineteenth century hydraulic mining complex along Humbug Creek. The southern portion of this complex is within the flood pool of the New Waddell Dam. This...

The Importance of Cultural Resource Management to Industrial Archaeology (2019)
Cultural resource management (CRM) and industrial archaeology are newer fields to the broad scope of archeology. CRM and industrial archaeology both have methods on identifying and processing cultural resources, but CRM can provide valuable methods on preserving, reusing or identifying industrial heritage. This paper will display how CRM and industrial archaeology are needed together to fully understand the cultural importance and physical important of the building in the past and present.
The Importance of Plow Zone Archaeology (2004)
In the last 25 years, a number of studies have emerged demonstrating that, while vertical stratigraphy is indeed destroyed by plowing, the horizontal or spatial distribution of materials is affected only minimally. Artifacts recovered from plow zone contexts are usually found close to where they were both used and discarded, with important implications for examining the spatial layout of archaeological sites. Distributions of plow zone artifacts and soil chemicals have been used to identify room...
Indian Groups Associated with Spanish Missions of the San Antonio Missions National Historic Park (1985)
This volume represents a segment of research undertaken by the Center for Archaeological Research, The University of Texas at San Antonio, under a contract with the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, San Antonio Missions National Historical Park.

The Indian Neck Ossuary (1988)
In September, 1979, National Park Service archaeologists conducting an archaeolgoical survey of Cape Cod National Seashore were called to a site on Indian Neck, a peninsula in Wellfleet Harbor on outer Cape Cod. A backhoe operator digging a hole for a cottage's septic tank had unearthed human bones. Based on the condition of the exposed bones, the archaeologists determined that the burial was prehistoric. The cottage owners allowed the NPS archaeological team to excavate the remaining...
The Indian Neck Ossuary: A Preliminary Report, Bradly et al 1982 (1982)
Late in the summer of 1979, human bones were unexpectedly uncovered during the construction of a septic system for summer cottages on Indian Neck, Wellfleet, Massachusetts. National Park Service archeologists, who were conducting a survey of the Cape Cod National Seashore, were contacted and the skeletal remains were identified as Native American . Construction had been halted when the bones were first noticed and it was determined that completion of the septic system would destroy the remaining...

INTANGIBLE CULTURAL HERITAGE SURVEY OF FORESTS AND FOREST RESOURCES OF THE TURTLE MOUNTAIN BAND OF CHIPPEWA INDIANS OF NORTH DAKOTA. (2011)
Because of various external and internal factors and pressures, the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians have seen significant changes and diminishment of their intangible cultural heritage throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries due to such factors as the establishment of the reservation system, the effects of Indian boarding schools, federal relocation policy, and other reasons. The Turtle Mountain Tribal Historic Preservation Office, undertook an effort to survey intangible...
Intensive Cultural Resource Survey of Lake Pleasant Regional Park, Maricopa and Yavapai Counties, Arizona (2002)
In the summers of 1979 and 1980, Arizona State University (ASU) conducted a cultural resources survey of Lake Pleasant Regional Park (LPRP) (Rice and Bostwick 1986). The completion of New Waddell Dam in 1993, increasing recreational development, and new park boundaries spurred the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) to survey the park. Reclamation performed the new survey on their land to fulfill their Section 110 requirements of the National Historic Preservation Act. Upon completion of the...
