Platform mounds were built by the prehistoric Salado and Hohokam people of southern Arizona from the 13th through the 15th century A.O., the Classic period.

Each mound was the administrative, ceremonial, and economic center for a small-scale political system,...

The Central Arizona Water Control Study provided the occasion to reassess the current state of our knowledge of the prehistory of the greater Salt-Gila Basin. There are two reasons for conducting this review. The first is to provide a baseline review of the current research questions, problems, and unknowns in our understanding of the prehistory of the area. The second purpose is to stimulate, through the examination of old ideas, the development of new views on the prehistory of this area. In...

The strata represent major natural or cultural depositional events such as erosional fill, roof fall, floor contexts, and sterile substrate. Strata are depicted as horizontal rows of interconnected boxes on a Harris Matrix. Within a feature, each stratum is designated by the feature number (e.g., 10, 11, 12, etc.) and a letter that designates a particular stratum (e.g., A, B, C). The letters are assigned in descending order. Mixed levels and artifacts collected out of context are designated by a...
