DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: system user

The archaeological excavations documented in this volume examine the Hohokam village of La Villa, AZ T:12:148 (ASM). From its founding in the sixth century A.D., until abandonment in the eleventh century, La Villa was one of the largest villages in the Phoenix Basin. Current excavations preceded the installation of a storm drain that was part of the larger Storm Drain project and provided a rare glimpse of a large pre-Classic period village. Fieldwork occurred in multiple phases. Archaeological...

This project was an outgrowth to the recommendation in the Cultural Resources Management Plan that investigations be undertaken to assess the potential of the Terrace Landscape on Arnold Air Force Base for buried cultural features. Field investigations were undertaken at four locations; near the Woods Reservoir Dam, at two locations near Morris Ferry, and near the confluence of Bradley Creek and Woods Reservoir. In the course of these investigations assessments of the potential for eight...
