This document presents Statistical Research's (SRI) data recovery plan for archaeological investigations of 11 prehistoric sites that will be impacted by the construction of the Fence Lake Transportation Corridor-Arizona. The project area extends east from the Coronado Generating Station north of St. Johns, Apache County, Arizona to .the New Mexico border (Figure 1-1). The transportation corridor right-of-way traverses private and state land north of Carrizo Wash, a major tributary to the Little...
Early Farmers of the Sonoran Desert: Archaeological Investigations at the Houghton Road Site, Tucson, Arizona (1998)
The following report presents the results of archaeological testing and data recovery at the Houghton Road site (AZ BB:13:398 [ASM]). These investigations provide important new insights into a virtually unknown time in Tucson Basin prehistory. The Houghton Road site represents a seasonally or semipermanently occupied hamlet that dates primarily to the Plain Ware horizon, the first period of Formative culture in southern Arizona. Excavations at the Houghton Road Site (AZ BB:13:398) add to the...

This document is the first of three volumes presenting the results of a two-phase data recovery program conducted by Statistical Research, Inc. (SRI), at 29 prehistoric sites and segments of 2 historical-period roads—Reno Road and the old Bush Highway—along a 25-mile-long segment of State Route 87 (SR 87, or the Beeline Highway), between Saguaro Lake Road and the Gila County Line. A fourth volume presents the findings of a study of the historical-period roads within the project area performed by...

INFRARED SPECTROMETRY (FTIR) ANALYSIS OF TWO BROWNWARE SHERDS FROM SITE FB 1579 (LA 116603) AND PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF A PROJECTILE POINT FROM SITE FB 1784 (LA 92756) ON THE FORT BLISS MCGREGOR RANGE, NEW MEXICO (2007)
Two sites located on Fort Bliss McGregor Range in Otero County of southern New Mexico yielded a single projecting point and two brownware sherds for protein and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry (FTIR) testing. Site FB1784 (LA 92756), a Late Archaic/Early Formative site, yielded the projectile point along with two soil control samples for protein residue analysis. Residue from two brownware sherds from an Early Formative site, FB15759 (LA 116603), were examined using FTIR to determine if...

MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT SITE LA 32078, NEW MEXICO (2010)
Floated light fractions from features at site LA 32078 on the White Sands Missile Range in south-central New Mexico were examined for macrofloral remains. Individual botanic, charcoal, and wood samples from these features also were identified. This site is an Early Formative Period, Jornado Mogollon, Mesilla phase (A.D. 200-A.D. 1000) habitation site containing shallow hut-type structures, shallow and deep pit structures, a small hearth/thermal feature, large bell-shaped pits, one small and...
