The Roosevelt Rural Sites Study (RRS) was one of three data recovery mitigative studies that the Bureau of Reclamation funded to investigate the prehistory of the Tonto Basin in the vicinity of Theodore Roosevelt Dam. The series of investigations constituted Reclamation's program for complying with historic preservation legislation as it applied to the raising and modification of Theodore Roosevelt Dam. Reclamation contracted with Statistical Research, Inc. to conduct this study. The RRS was...
Roosevelt Water Conservation District Canal, South of the Salt River Mesa-Chandler Vicinity, Maricopa County, Arizona: Written Historical and Descriptive Data, Photographs, Reduced Copies of Drawings (2000)
The establishment of the Salt River Federal Reclamation Project in 1903 led to the construction of a modern irrigation system to serve the productive farmlands of the Salt River Valley. However, lands outside of the project boundaries, which generally had no legal claim to surface water, had to rely on alternative sources of water. The Roosevelt Water Conservation District was one of the earliest successful efforts to increase the available water supply. By applying simple but innovative...
Roots in the Community: A Macrobotanical Analysis of Enslaved African-American Households at James Madison's Montpelier (2016)
In 2008, the archaeology department at James Madison’s Montpelier began a multi-year project that sought to understand the community dynamics between enslaved workers at the plantation in the early 19th century. This study excavated and analyzed four sites: South Yard, Stable Quarter, Field Quarter, and Tobacco Barn Quarter. Each of these sites represents a different community of enslaved workers, from those who worked in the mansion to field hands. This paper will compare the macrobotanical...
The Roots of Lithic Exchange Routes in the Taos Region (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Northern Rio Grande History: Routes and Roots" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This presentation uses lithic-sourcing data from two large northern Rio Grande Pueblo communities, Pot Creek Pueblo (1250–1320 CE) and Picuris Pueblo (1000–Present CE), to delve into the social and economic dynamics that shaped the exchange of obsidian and chert over the past millennium in the Taos region. Drawing on data from over 2,000...
Roots of Sedentism: Archaeological Excavations at Valencia Vieja, a Founding Village in the Tucson Basin of Southern Arizona (2003)
The archaeological research reported in this volume was conducted under contract with the Desert Vista Campus, Pima County Community College District. The contract provided for data recovery excavations at two sites located on portions of the campus property: AZ BB:13:15 (ASM) and AZ BB:13:74 (ASM). Both sites had been tested using backhoe trenching in 1992 (Huckell 1993), and had been found to have significant subsurface remains. While we were aware of the research potential of the portion of...

Rose Red-Filmed by Any Other Name: Pottery Typology and Genealogy in the Southeastern US (2019)
This is an abstract from the ""Re-excavating" Legacy Collections" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Working with legacy collections, it is common to come across labeled artifacts or reports listing now defunct names. Over the years, archaeologists have chosen to define ceramic assemblages based on any number of attributes; often the primary consideration being the site or region in which they were first discovered and described. These names are time...
Rose Valley Site (CA-INY-1799): Applying an Interdisciplinary Approach to a Western Great Basin Paleoindian Site (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In 2017, California State University, Los Angeles, began a multi-year investigation of the Rose Valley Site (CA-INY-1799). As an enhancement of our archaeological methodology, my study has emphasized an interdisciplinary approach that incorporates geological research and geospatial technologies. This includes the use of geostatistical analyses, extensive...

The Route of the Soto Army through Alabama (1987)
The expedition of Hernando de Soto passed through what is now the southeastern United States in A.D. 1539-1541. The expedition consisted of approximately 600 soldiers, 400 slaves and laborers, 200 horses, and a herd of pigs that may have numbered in the hundreds. It was an expedition for gold, glory, and God; in that order. The Spanish Crown wanted to expand its ever growing international power base by occupying "la Florida." As the new governor of "la Florida", Soto wanted to make his mark on...

ROV-Based 3D Modeling Efforts on a Submerged WWII Aircraft for Museum Display (2016)
In 1944, factory workers and community members from Tulsa, OK bought war bonds to finance the last B-24 Liberator built by the Tulsa Douglas Aircraft plant. They named her, wrote signatures and messages on her fuselage, and sent her to Europe with a part Tulsa crew. She went down off the coast of Croatia after a bombing mission but was never forgotten as a WWII community icon. Archaeologists are now in the process of preserving the cultural heritage and physical remains of the site, as well...
