Geoarchaeology and Archaeological Site Patterning on the Middle Gila River, Arizona (2004)
DOCUMENT Full-Text John C. Ravesloot. Michael R. Waters.

Archaeologists reconstruct settlement patterns from the spatial distribution of archaeological sites, features, and ar­tifacts that are found as part of a modern physical landscape. This physical landscape is made up of active and inactive landforms. In order to accurately interpret archae­ological survey data, it is important to understand the types and origins of the landforms on which these cultural re­mains occur (Barton et al. 1999, 2002; Butzer 1982; Bet­tis and Mandel 2002; Waters and...
