Fiber and rib material from a coated basket recovered in a rockshelter site in Val Verde County, Texas, was submitted for identification to determine the construction material for the basket. Black residue removed from the inside surface of the basket was examined for pollen, phytoliths, and organic residues (using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) to obtain a better understanding of the residue. The basket was found covering an infant burial that had been wrapped in two layers of...

Millwood Plantation 1980

The extent of this collection is twenty and a half (20.5) linear inches. The documents date from 1979 to 1987. The field work began in 1980, which explains the date in the collection name. The range of dates includes administrative documents and the final report. The collection was originally housed in acidic file folders in an acidic cardboard...
Miscellaneous Papers Concerning the Removal, Care, and Study of Archeological Specimens (1961)
Most of the papers and excerpts in this book were collected during the early days of the Missouri Basin Project. In some cases publication data apparently was not written down, or was written down only in part. Many of the specimen processing methods outlined here were developed specifically for museum use and are much better suited to that than to vastly different emergency laboratory demands. For this reason they have not been used as sources for this project. In fact, the only material in...
Mitchell Springs Ruin Group
The Mitchell Springs Ruin Group is located just south of Cortez Colorado in the heart of Montezuma Valley. This community was occupied from Basketmaker times through around A.D. 1240 and is made up of around 75 small pueblos, small great houses, a great kiva, 10+ meter diameter court kiva, and a tri-wall structure. Field schools conducted from 1990-2004 resulted in two publications.
More than Meets the Eye: The Archeology of Bathhouse Row, Hot Springs National Park, Arkansas (2008)
For many, the oldest “park” managed by the federal government is not Yellowstone National Park (set aside in 1872) but Hot Springs National Park (HOSP) in Arkansas. Congress set aside the hot springs and adjoining mountains here as a federal reservation in 1832 to protect the resource and preserve it for public use. For centuries before this, the hot springs may have used by Native Americans, their occupations having little impact on the resource. But with EuroAmerican use, this began to change....
Multiple Animal Offerings in an Early Kiva (2012)
During the 2011 investigations at Champagne Spring Ruin located near Dove Creek, Colorado, a kiva dating to the last half of the A.D. 900's was partially excavated. The report describes this formal 'kiva closing' which included the dispatch and formal burial of at least 3 dogs, 10 adult turkeys, a cottontail rabit, a beheaded rattlesnake and numerous poults.

New Information from the Reanalyses of a Frontier Burial from Fort Caspar, Wyoming (2001)
Reexamination of the Fort Caspar Burial #3 collection, including a nearly complete human skeleton and associated artifacts, has provided additional information regarding the life and death of this early frontier white male. Subsequent analyses indicate the individual was younger than originally estimated and had been buried in a coffin constructed of painted wood and fittings from a wagon. Reevaluation of the skeletal trauma strongly suggests the cause of death was a result of bludgeoning rather...

Painted Cave Northern Arizona (1945)
The body of literature dealing with the archaeology of the San Juan drainage, while large, is strangely silent concerning the extreme northeastern corner of Arizona in the region of the Carrizo and Lukachukai Mountains. Prudden, in his classic study of the ruins in the San Juan watershed, mentions both surface and cave sites but they were small for the most part, and none received more than a cursory examination. Many years later, in 1924, a Peabody Museum expedition headed by Oliver LaFarge,...

Peoples and Crafts in Period IVB at Hasanlu, Iran
The University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology has had a long-standing interest in the archaeology of Iran. In 1956, Robert H. Dyson, Jr., began excavations south of Lake Urmia at the large mounded site of Hasanlu. Although the results of these excavations await final publication, the Hasanlu Special Studies series—of which this monograph is the fourth volume—describes and analyzes specific aspects of technology, style, and iconography. This volume describes a group of...
