Results of Subsurface Testing for the Proposed Site Protection Fence Extension at LA 2014, Kirtland Air Force Base, Bernalillo County, New Mexico (2005)
Subsurface testing of LA 2014 at Kirtland Air Force Base (KAFB), New Mexico found that the tested area, the location of several clusters of cobbles previously identified as possible prehistoric features, does not contain subsurface cultural deposits. Moreover, the testing suggests that the features identified by previous archaeological research may in fact be Pleistocene deposits. In 2004, the environmental branch at Kirtland Air Force Base contracted with engineering-environmental Management,...
Sandia Laboratories II Archaeological Survey Project (1980)
The Center for Anthropological Studies has just completed an intensive field examination of 165 acres situated on Kirtland Air Force Base. Nine loci of isolated artifacts and two prehistoric sites were located. The two prehistoric sites are dense surface scatters of sherds and lithic artifacts that suggest the subsurface existence of several pithouses. Associated ceramic artifacts date these sites to the 1050-1370 period of the Middle Rio Grande Anasazi Indians. Both of these sites appear...
