Samples from five ring middens at five sites in the Guadalupe Mountains of southeastern New Mexico were examined for pollen and macrofloral remains. These ring middens represent roasting pits or hearths with fire-cracked rock that were used from the Archaic to the Jornada Mogollon and up through the historic Apache period. The Apache are noted to still use these types of pits to roast agave (Diane Prather, personal communication, September 22, 2010). Radiocarbon dates from these features ranged...

Sites AZ V: 13:182, 185, and 186 (ASM) are located directly east of the ASARCO-Ray Mine Complex, in the Dripping Springs Mountains in southcentral Arizona. These multicomponent sites all exhibit evidence of prehistoric and historic activities. Prehistoric components at AZ V: 13:182 and 186 (ASM) are Hohokam. The historic components at these sites represent early mining activities in the region as well as possible Apachean use of the area. Pollen and macrofloral samples were collected from a...

Site AR0308030704 is a possible prehistoric site containing a “ring midden” roasting pit, located in the Lincoln National Forest, New Mexico. A soil sample from the roasting pit was submitted for pollen and macrofloral analysis along with two charcoal samples for identification. Potentially AMS radiocarbon datable materials were separated and one sample was selected for dating. Lithic fragments collected at the site suggest middle to late Archaic Period occupation; however, Apache occupation,...

Excavations at sites along the State Route 88-Wheatfields (SR 88-Wheatfields) section documented a 2,500-year cultural sequence (600 B.C.-A.D. 1950) that revealed use of the area in the Late Archaic, Early Formative, Late Formative, Classic, and Historic periods, the last involving Euroamerican and Apache occupations. The SR 88-Wheatfields project documented a range of human adaptations to the complex landscapes along the middle Pinal Creek in the Globe Highlands, near present-day Miami in Gila...

Western Apache history, as it relates to the State Route 260 (SR 260) Payson-to-Heber project implemented by Desert Archaeology, Inc., is summarized in this report. This project was conducted to mitigate the impact of highway realignment and improvement on cultural resources along a 74-km- (46-mile-) long stretch of right-of-way between Payson and Heber (Milepost 256 to Milepost 302) (Herr 1999). Ethnohistoric research included preliminary fieldwork in 2000 (Ferguson and Anyon 2000), followed...

Each year thousands of people come to the Salt River Valley, some to visit and some to live. They see a thriving, growing community. But like many who have spent most, or all, of their lives there, they don't know much about the Valley's origins or how it developed. The men and women who built the Valley were like today's people. They were trying to improve their own condition. In doing that, they contributed to the well-being of one another. Jack Swilling was one of them. Swilling...

The planned realignment of State Route 260 (SR 260) between Payson and Heber by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) resulted in a multiphase archaeological investigation of the associated right-of-way and Area of Potential Effects (APE). The construction project includes 45.8 miles of highway. Numerous archaeological sites were identified during initial surveys in the project area along the western portion of the project area, below the Mogollon rim and on the Tonto National Forest...

The Museum of Northern Arizona developed a location analysis research design for Phase II archaeological investigations of the proposed transmission line corridor route for the Arizona Station Project. Through coupling this research design with a survey of sample archaeological units in the corridor areas, a projection of archaeological sensitivity was generated. This projection was based on a categorization of the total study areas in terms of environmental sensitivity to each. Variable for...

In Chapter 8, Whittlesey and her co-authors discuss the historical events and the cultural processes that shaped the use and occupation of central Arizona after AD 1540. The authors focus on broad trends in politics, economics, and the environment that contributed to changes in land-use patterns. They center their discussion on Euro-American populations, but also consider indigenous populations living on reservations. Furthermore, the authors examine patterns in the relations between...

The Zuni Heaven project is a proposed land selection for Apache County, Arizona. Nearly 5,900 acres will be available for transfer to the County. In three phases, between October 1985 and July 1987, BLM inventoried over 7,100 acres to locate sufficient acreage for transfer. During the surveys, 32 sites were recorded in 19 different parcels. A total of 5,977 acres have been recommended for transfer to Apache County, excluding parcels which contain National Register potential properties.
