In the pre-Hispanic Southwest, it is well known that certain places on the regional landscape were considered sacred or ritually charged, such as summits, springs, and caves. Less understood is the way that sacred and secular spaces were partitioned within prehistoric villages. In this paper we examine the relationship among secular and sacred spaces during the PIII/PIV periods at two villages along the Rio Grande. Each village includes roomblocks, agricultural features, resource processing...

Prehistoric site NA13,886 is an extensive archaeological resource exhibiting profuse quantities of artifacts which appear to represent a very wide range of human activities. The proposed Salt River Project Coronado to Dinosaur 500 kV transmission line right-of-way is currently oriented so as to bisect this site. A recent SRP-sponsored field evaluation of this site was undertaken by the Museum in order to establish the site's qualities and thus its significance and determine costs for various...

The Sapillo Vallley Survey Project was undertaken by Robert J. Stokes in 1993 and the results compiled in the author's M.A. thesis at Eastern New Mexico University in 1995. The Sapillo Valley is a large tributary of the Gila River in the Mimbres area of Southwestern New Mexico. Please note that the thesis .pdf document associated with this project has been reformatted from its original early 1990s Word Perfect file type to a 2010 Word document prior to saving it as a .pdf. As a consequence of...

Faunal remains from Bailey Ruin, Hough's Great Kiva, Cothrun's Kiva, and Pottery Hill.This is the full original SCARP faunal dataset created by Rebecca Dean with one column added, ALLGNAW. The orignal dataset has rodent and carnivore gnawing coded separately. Mapping gnawing information from SCARP to the tDAR Faunal Gnawing Ontology required a new variable that combined presence/absence information from both columns.

Around the globe, prehistoric agriculture has impacted the environment in ways that are observable today. Prehistoric farmers in the Southwestern US modified the landscape with rock alignments to support rain fed agriculture in this semi-arid region. Numerous studies have shown that former agricultural fields are ecologically different than areas that have not been farmed. This thesis explores the independent effects of the manipulation of rocks into alignments, prehistoric farming, and season...

Archaeological Consulting Services, Ltd. (ACS), conducted investigations at 20 prehistoric and historic sites for the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) as the result of plans to realign State Route 88 (SR 88) between Tonto National Monument and the junction of US Highway 60 (US 60) in Globe-Miami, Gila County, Arizona. Fieldwork occurred on ADOT right-of-way on the Tonto National Forest (Forest) under special-use permits (No. 2034-22 and 2034-23) issued by the Forest under authority of...

Numerous studies in the US Southwest suggest that prehistoric artiodactyl populations in areas of dense human settlement experienced population reductions which substantially reduced their availability to human hunters. Although most assemblages from villages in this region are dominated by lagomorphs, some settlements maintained greater access to artiodactyls. Factors influencing this variability include both local settlement history and settlement location relative to productive source areas...

Landscapes across the American Southwest are littered with prehistoric structures of less than 10 rooms used for a variety of functions – from seasonal field houses, to storage, to year-long residences, to boundary markers. These structures, while largely ignored in much of the archaeological literature, can provide information on the human impact across an entire landscape, instead of simply focusing on the pueblo itself or on the agricultural fields. How, then, can these small architectural...

This report is an attempt to combine the ethnohistory of the Sobaipuri with archaeological findings. By using the descriptions of these natives penned by their Spanish contemporaries I have endeavored to correlate the archeological remains found at the Sobaipuri sites. To define this effort I have taken the liberty to coin the word "archaeohistory." Each chapter is a complete unit within itself, containing an introduction, a description of materials, and a summary. The other chapters will...

The study of prehistoric mortuary practices in the American Southwest is undergoing tremendous change in the new millennium. The challenges (and opportunities) of NAGPRA implementation, declines in the number of large samples being excavated, and loss of data from previously excavated samples have altered mortuary archaeology in the region. Given this state of affairs, the development of an integrated regional database of prehistoric mortuary practices is imperative. This session at the 76th...

The level of constructedness of archaeological sites can provide insight into the amount of planning, labor and time invested into building structures. Further understanding into the time, labor and planning invested into architecture can allow for inferences to made on the residential mobility of the population, intensity of surrounding land use and social importance assigned to each pueblo (Cameron 1999). This paper will explore and compare the architectural constructedness of small sites...

Studies of the architecture of Pueblo La Plata, particularly room construction sequences, formed one component of the Legacies on the Landscape project research in 2004. The goals of this portion of the project were to improve our understanding of how the pueblo was built, and to gain a sense of population size and changes over time. In particular, we wished to determine whether a sizeable core area of rooms (representing the first construction phase of the pueblo) was visible, and whether the...
