The City of Phoenix (City) involved construction of approximately 0.3 mile (0.5 kilometer [km]).The City used fill material previously stockpiled within the alignment of an unbuilt segment. The project also included construction of curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and drainage ditches along each side of the new street, and culverts to direct storm water beneath the roadway. After monitoring identified archaeological features, the City modified the scope of work to include data recovery excavations....

This report presents a monitoring and data recovery plan for the proposed Stapley Drive Conduit and Fiber Optic Cable Project, City of Mesa Project Number 00-44. The Stapley Road Conduit and Fiber Optic Project will create moderate subsurface impacts through the excavation of a utility trench along a 2-mile right-of-way. The area was previously developed and is currently a major traffic corridor in the City of Mesa. The Stapley Road Conduit and Fiber Optic is being funded by federal CMAQ...

The following report contains the results of archaeological monitoring of two areas within the boundaries of AZ BB:9:14 (ASM) in the eastern Tucson Basin, near the confluence of the Rillito River and Pantano Wash. This project was conducted because the construction lies within the boundaries of a previously recorded archaeological site. The work complies with the City of Tucson Resolution Number 12443 (1983), an Administrative Directive titled Protection of Archaeological and Historical...

AZ T:12:397 (ASM) is a historic canal exposure uncovered on the north side of McDowell Road. Archaeological monitoring of the excavations for waterline improvement uncovered a historic canal (AZ T:12:397 [ASM]). The canal was minimally exposed and its National Register eligibility cannot be assessed at this time. No further archaeological work is recommended for this project. EcoPlan recommends, however, that if future ground disturbing projects are proposed in the vicinity of the canal,...

Study of a collection of pollen samples collected from AZ 22822 during summer, 1998. The study was principally undertaken to provide opportunities for students to obtain training and develop initial expertise in the skills and disciplines of archaeological pollen analysis. The 32 samples were from proxy surface, dune and pithouse contexts. Analysis used pollen categories rather than traditional pollen taxa. Results suggest the site's occupation history incorporates 5 distinct episodes of...

Study of 30 surface and 18 archaeological-context pollen samples was undertaken to assess the potential for further archaeological palynology research. Surface sample analysis allows palynological recognition of eight habitat types ranging from dry and cold through wet and moist to dry and warm. Comparison of fossil and modern surface pollen data suggests the character of paleoecological change sequences at 4 sites, a positive potential for inter-site and intra-site relative cross-dating, and a...

Analysis of palynological and radiocarbon data from this site with comparable data from other sites leads to a general paleoenvironmental model covering the 8300-6000 B.P. period for the American Southwest. This allows reconstruction of the character of paleoclimatic variations on the resources used by the Archaic occupants of this cave site, and assessment of theories of the Anthropology of Southwestern Archaic populations.

Study of the pollen of 4 surface and 41 stratigraphic and archaeological-context sediment samples was undertaken to provide independent evidence of the antiquity of sites LA 11828 and LA 11904, and of the hypothesis the two sites had the same cultural functions. The pollen record suggests the two sites differ in antiquity: the occupation horizon samples from LA 11828 correspond to others that date to the Historic Period, while those from LA 11904 correspond to others that date 1800 - 300 B.C....

A survey of areas, which will be directly or indirectly affected by construction of a U. S. Army Corps of Engineers dam on the Pecos River in Guadalupe County, New Mexico, recorded 246 archaeological sites. In this sample 133 prehistoric, 69 historic, and 44 multiple component sites were recorded. Eleven site categories were defined on the basis of surface remains. These categories included: two differently constructed types of multistructured historic sites; low-walled sandstone enclosures;...

From March 21 through August 22, 1985, the Institute tor American Research conducted archaeological studies for the City of Tucson in the Santa Cruz Industrial Park, Tucson, Arizona. One archaeological site was excavated to accommodate scheduled land development. In addition, earth-moving activities were monitored to identify and investigate archaeological and paleontological remains exposed or threatened during construction of a road and drainageway.

Data recovery excavations and analyses were undertaken at the Minim Island Site, 38GE46, Georgetown County, South Carolina. Excavation at this Early Woodland site consisted of a three by nine meter block with a maximum depth of 2.2 meters below surface. Ten cm arbitrary levels were excavated, and the general level fill was screened through 0.25 inch mesh. Fill from features and six 50 by 50 cm column samples per level was saved for flotation separation. Specialized analyses were undertaken to...
