The Tucson Aqueduct is the final seg­ment of the Bureau of Reclamation’s Central Arizona Project (CAP). This 330-mile-long aqueduct system will deliver water from the Colorado River to central and southern Arizona to alleviate a continuing ground-water overdraft crisis and to provide water for municipal, industrial, and agri­cultural use. Phase B is the second and last leg of the Tucson Aqueduct. It begins just north of Tucson near Marana and winds its way south through the Avra Valley to the...

The Tucson Aqueduct Phase B Project represents the first substantial archaeological investigations and excavations to be conducted in the Avra Valley. Prior to the 1983 intensive survey of the Phase B alignment by archaeologists from the Arizona State Museum, archaeological investigation of the Avra Valley had been limited primarily to occasional clearance surveys and test excavations. The identification of 47 prehistoric sites during the 1983 survey (Downum and others 1986) and the...

During May of 1990, archaeologists investigated the historic remains on Tucson Block 83, still preserved beneath the debris of more recent buildings that had been demolished for construction of a new downtown bus station. With a specially-designed wide blade, a backhoe gently scraped away the foot-deep demolition debris to reveal adobe, brick, and stone house foundations, trash piles, well shafts, and privy pits dating between about 1880 and 1920 (most of them dating to near the turn of the...

The variability among Hohokam platform mounds and their related architectural complexes, the predominant form of public architecture during the Classic period, has now been well documented through ongoing field studies and archival research. Recognition of that variability encompasses multiple dimensions linked to perceptions of leadership, social structure, territorial configurations, civic and ritual affairs, and external relationships. The Tucson regional sector in southern Arizona is no...

Excavations conducted at Tumacacori National Monument, Arizona in 1979 recovered data that would have been destroyed by the installation of an underground drainage system in the Franciscan mission plaza and adjacent to the west wall of the mission church. This system was designed to aid in the stabilizaton of the historic structures. This report describes the surprisingly intact stratigraphy of the excavated area. Features and deposits were grouped into four areas of associated deposits and...

J. Whittaker: Force is not applied in a straight line, so dart must flex. If end kicks up, dart is too limber, if down, too stiff. Test before fletching. The harder you throw, the stiffer the dart should be. Fairly wide range is acceptable; well-tuned dart works for hard to moderate throw but kicks down for easy toss. Periodicity of dart vibration must match distance/time of throw. Flex of atlatl has little effect on “tuning” and flex of atlatl or dart contributes almost no energy to throw.
