The Central Arizona Project (CAP) , Indian Distribution Division (IDD) is designed to deliver allocated CAP water to Indian users.

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...

Colono ware, low-fired earthenware in European form, has long presented a challenge to the archaeologist. The existing typology of colono ware has led to confusion and misunderstanding of these wares. Proposed here is a new, more consistent typology. Archaeological work at three Spanish presidios in Pensacola, Florida, recovered a number of fragments from colono ware and Mission Red Filmed ceramic vessels. The chronological and spatial separation of the three presidios afforded the...

This project pertains to the compositional analysis of ceramic materials from the United States. These data were generated by neutron activation analysis (NAA) at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) between the late 1960s and early 1990s. Data from the LBNL were transferred to the Archaeometry Laboratory at the University of Missouri, where they were digitized for distribution through tDAR.

This conference paper addresses the Oahe Reservoir area and its many archeological potentialities demonstrated through excavation in the early to mid-1900s. In 1947 the Oahe Reservoir Project of the Army Corps of Engineers was announced. This meant that within the next ten or twelve years a large and important archeological area would be obliterated. Action was imperative. The Missouri Basin Project of the Smithsonian Institution has conducted field surveys in the Oahe are during part of each...

This essay explores some of the modern rituals, folk beliefs, and stories of the players who frequent the Turtle Mountain Bingo Palace. It is a unique look into a social activity that – on the surface – appears to be a completely European activity, but is instead one of the few social ways that a people walking a road between the aboriginal and modern worlds can continue to practice their magic-based culture.

In previous papers we have sought to use archaeological data to rethink some of the reigning assumptions about life in colonial Chesapeake, and move toward a new vision of an early colonial Virginia “frontier.” Our work has focused principally on a few sites in the Virginia tidewater and along the upper reaches of the Rappahannock spanning the years between 1640 and 1760. Last year, for example, we used the artifactual and architectural data from a circa 1690 Rappahannock plantation to argue...
