Prospects for Detection of Ephemeral Historic Sod Structures Using Geophysical Techniques in Custer County, Nebraska (2015)
Sod houses represent one form of ephemeral historic structure that became common to portions of the Great Plains as a result of the Homestead Act of 1862. Since their construction in the late 1800s and early 1900s, sod house and out buildings have either been preserved, allowed to "melt," deliberately removed and put under cultivation. This poster examines the documentation of these structures under various post-occupation conditions through the use of surface level, non-destructive, geophysical...

The Racetrack Project
Between A.D. 1250 and 1450, a large number of ceremonial racetracks were built at and between villages in north-central Arizona. This assemblage began as a relatively dispersed collection, stretching from the Sedona area down to Cave Creek and from the Bradshaw Mountains to the Mazatzal Wilderness. Over time, the racetrack network grew in intensity but became spatially focused atop Perry Mesa, along the middle Agua Fria River. In conjunction with the Legacies on the Landscape Project and...

A Re-examination of the Geophysical Survey at Voyageurs National Park (1998)
A geophysical survey was conducted at the King Williams Narrows Campground in 1987. Three stone circles were visible at the surface during that survey, and there was a radar echo from an object below one of these circles. Since the time of that survey, three additional stone circles have been mapped at the site, and this report is a second look at the geophysical data from those locations. There are no distinctive geophysical patterns at any of the three additional stone circles. Since these...
Relocation of an Historic Navajo Grave at Captain Tom Dam, Navajo Nation, San Juan County, New Mexico: Letter Report (2007)
Fieldwork was conducted to reloacte a 60-year-old Navajo grave at Captain Tom Dam on the Navajo Nation, San Juan County, New Mexico. A lineal descendant had staked the general area where the grave was believed to be located. This area was approximately 12x13 m — and a buffer of 12 m was placed around the general area identified by the family member for a total study area of 24x25 m. A GPR survey was conducted to identify specific anomalies that might represent the burial. The GPR data yielded no...
