Two bulk soil samples and 61 detrital charcoal samples were examined to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. These samples were collected from stream deposits along the Blue River in the Lower Blue River Basin near Green Mountain Dam and Reservoir in western Colorado. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated. Six radiocarbon dates were obtained.

Six bulk soil samples and nine detrital charcoal samples from site locations CR4, CR5, CR6, and CR7 along the Carson River, in the lower Carson River Basin, Nevada were analyzed to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon age determination. These samples were recovered from stream deposits near the Lahontan Dam and Reservoir (Jeanne Godaire, personal communication September 1, 2015). Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material...

Four site locations were investigated as part of the Lost Creek Dam Paleoflood Study, Weber Basin, Utah. Twenty-five detrital charcoal samples collected from sites LC3, LC4, LC5, and LC6 were submitted for recovery and identification of charred organic fragments suitable for AMS radiocarbon age determination. Subsequent to identification, seven samples were selected for AMS radiocarbon dating.

Ten samples were examined for the presence of organic material suitable for radiocarbon analysis. These samples were recovered from two Holocene terraces along Bull Lake Creek downstream of Bull Lake Dam, in west-central Wyoming. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated. A total of 3 radiocarbon dates were obtained from charcoal fragments.

A total of 27 detrital charcoal samples from along Little Stony Creek downstream of East Park Dam, California, were floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. These samples were recovered from Holocene alluvium in two bank exposures and a soil pit. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated. A total of seven radiocarbon dates were obtained on charcoal from these samples.

A total of 33 detrital charcoal samples from along Little Stony Creek downstream of East Park Dam, California, were floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon dating. These samples were recovered from Holocene alluvium in three bank exposures and a soil pit. The botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and the potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated. A total of seven radiocarbon dates were obtained on charcoal from these samples. Of the 33...

A total of seven bulk samples of organic material from black mat deposits in the Upper Las Vegas Wash, Nevada, were floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. The black mat deposits are associated with late Pleistocene paleo-spring sediments. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated. A single charcoal sample also was submitted for identification.

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...

Six samples from a core collected in a closed depression along the San Andreas fault on the north flank of Frazier Mountain were selected for pollen analysis to examine the paleoenvironmental record. In addition, quantities of microscopic charcoal smaller than 250 microns were tabulated to provide preliminary information on fire history.

This is an Arizona Site Steward file for the Fenceline Shelter, located on Bureau of Reclamation land. The site is comprised of a rock shelter, pictographs, midden with artifact scatter, and a possible roasting pit. The file consists of site data form, two Arizona State Museum archaeological site cards, and two black and white photographs. The earliest dated document is from 1990.

Monitoring for the Southwest Gas 2" Steel Main Replacement Project identified two features within AZ T:12:37(ASM)-Casa Buena, and three canal exposures representing two canals (designated at AZ T:12:416 and T:417[ASM]). All feature recording protocols followed those methods set forth in the approved City of Phoenix blanket work plan (Montero and Stubing 2004). ACS’ monitoring for the Southwest Gas 2" Steel Main Replacement Project resulted in the monitoring of 98 new excavations, and the...

Phase II evaluations were conducted for six archaeological sites at Joint Base Andrews (Andrews Air Force Base) in Prince George's County, Maryland, and three archaeological sites at the Davidsonville Transmitter Station (Davidsonville) in Anne Arundel County, Maryland. The purpose of the investigation was to determine if sites 18PR443, 18PR444, 18PR445, 18PR446, 18PR447, 18PR448, 18AN958, 18AN959, and 18AN961 are eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). This...

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...

This report presents descriptions of features excavated during the 1998 investigations at the Central Cluster locus of the Los Pozos site, which was occupied during the Late Cienega phase (circa 400 B.C.-A.D. 50) of the Early Agricultural period. The project was conducted for the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT Contract 94-46) for the Interstate 10 Corridor Improvement project. Features were identified during the testing phase of the project and subsequently excavated by Desert...

Statistical Research, Inc. (SRI), under subcontract to ASM Affiliates, conducted geoarchaeological investigations in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) Tres Rios project area. The Tres Rios project involves flood control, wetland restoration, water reclamation and reuse (creation of wetland, marsh, and open water areas), and construction of a pipeline and levees. The project area is located in central Arizona in the area surrounding the confluence of the Salt, Gila, and Agua Fria Rivers....

As part of the Santa Cruz Industrial Park Project, the City of Tucson planned to bridge and stabilize the banks of a large, deeply entrenched wash that flows into the Santa Cruz River approximately one-quarter mile south of Irvington Road on the right bank of the river. Airport Wash, as it is called, has cut deeply into the ancient sediments filling the valley at this point, exposing a long record of late Pleistocene and Holocene alluvium. Earlier examinations by archaeologists in the mid- to...

Given the relatively uniform nature of the seven identified resource processing sites in the Anthem at Merrill Ranch project area, as well as, Site AZ U:15:237(ASM) with its agricultural features, the research focus of the data recovery plan was to gain a better basic understanding of the temporal affiliations of and subsistence strategies represented by the project area’s eight prehistoric sites. An additional goal was to place these sites within the greater context of Hohokam occupation along...
