A common archaeological task is the assignment of starting and ending dates to a temporal interval given a set of age-determinations that contain inherent measurement errors, such as radiocarbon or obsidian hydration dates. Intuitive methods of inferring these intervals do not correctly or systematically account for the expectable effects of sampling error when estimating interval lengths. We propose way to think about and examine the expectable joint effects of the error associated with...

The nature of Hohokam social organization has always been at the core of debates surrounding the prehistory of southern Arizona. Changing theoretical perspectives have shifted the directions and foci of controversy but the differences in these orientations can largely be described in terms of the assumptions made about social organization. A continuing thread to the arguments has been disagreement over the nature of power relationships in Hohokam society and the importance of such relationships...

Many repositories, particularly those associated with university and state museums, have a long history of providing curatorial services at no cost to the collection owners to manage, store, and care for archeological collections created during projects on federal, state, local, and private lands. At least two factors were involved in the development of this relationship. One was the enactment of the Antiquities Act in 1906. It required that “the gatherings” from an archeological investigation...

The Defense of Wake is one of a series of operational monographs designed to provide both student and casual readers with thorough and complete narratives of the major operations in which Marine Corps units participated during World War II. As a sufficient number of monographs are brought to completion, these, in turn, will be condensed and edited for final compilation into official operational history.

The skeletal series recovered from Casas Grandes, Chihuahua is described and compared to samples of living Papago, Hopi, and Navajo Indians for several non-metrical dental traits (incisor shoveling, canine tuberculum dentale, maxillary molar hypocone, Carabelli's Trait, mandibular molar cusp pattern protostylid, cusp 6, cusp 7, and mandibular premolar lingual cusp number). To quantify the biological relationships between these groups Smith and Berry's mean measure of divergence (Berry, 1968) is...

This is the introduction to the Roosevelt Platform Mound Studies. The Roosevelt Platform Mound Study investigated the physical and social organization of three Classic period community complexes in the Tonto Basin of Arizona known as Pinto Creek, Cline Terrace, and Rock Island. The data were collected from the investigation of 79 prehistoric sites arranged in three clusters within the Tonto Basin. There are many other sites not examined by the investigations described in this series of...
