Their Own Road: Archaeological Investigations along State Route 260 (2012)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Sarah Herr. CaraMia M. Whitney.

At first glance, the potential for sub-Mogollon Rim archaeology sites is not promising. This region, east of Payson and Star Valley, Arizona, is characterized by single-room masonry structures and artifact scatters covered with thick stands of manzanita and pine duff. Many artifact scatters are comprised solely of small pieces of flaked stone; others have pieces of plain brown ware ceramics that blend in easily with the ground cover. However, beneath these less-than-dramatic surface...
