In the paper “ Archeological Notes on Texas Canyon, Arizona ” (Vol. XII, No. 1 of this series) which covered the work accomplished at the Double F Ranch in 1933, it was intimated, if the findings warranted, that a further report would ensue for the season of 1934. In the publication above mentioned there was expressed the thought, though from very meagre evidence, that the culture here might be Hohokam with a few trade pieces intermingled. The work this season has strengthened the conclusion...
