Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 (2012)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Sarah Herr. CaraMia M. Whitney.

At first glance, the potential for sub-Mogollon Rim archaeology sites is not promising. This region, east of Payson and Star Valley, Arizona, is characterized by single-room masonry structures and artifact scatters covered with thick stands of manzanita and pine duff. Many artifact scatters are comprised solely of small pieces of flaked stone; others have pieces of plain brown ware ceramics that blend in easily with the ground cover. However, beneath these less-than-dramatic surface...


Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 Payson to Heber-Kohls Ranch Section (2017)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: Rachel Fernandez

The Kohls Ranch highway section lies at the center of the State Route (SR) 260 —Payson to Heber project area. This section also crosses a number of central places of the past. Here, near its headwaters, Tonto Creek is a mountain stream, whose terraces widen briefly near the highway before the canyon narrows into the Hells Gate Wilderness to the south. Indian Garden, a mile to the east, is a spring-fed meadow. Geology transitions in this area, as the topography created by the friable granites to...
