The prehistoric archaeological resources are interpreted to represent the seasonal use of this area as a supplementary resource zone by Rio Grande Anasazi people between about A.D. 1050 and A.D. 1350. The historic resources, in contrast,...

Sandia Laboratories I Archaeological Survey Project, Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico (1980)
The Center for Anthropological Studies has just completed an intensive archaeological survey or field examination of a 207 acre portion of Kirtland Air Force Base.

Diagnostic lithic and ceramic artifacts suggest the primary prehistoric use of this area by Rio Grande Anasazi Indian groups during the A.D. 1000-1350 period. In contrast, the historic remains reflect Anglo-American mining activities undertaken between about 1900...
