773d LRS Equipment Storage Building Construction Site, JBER, Cultural Resources Study Report, United States Air Force Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska (2015)
The U.S. Air Force proposed to construct an equipment storage building on a 1-acre parcel located northwest of the intersection of Pole Line and Artillery Roads at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska. Because the proposed project included federal funds and lands, it qualified as an undertaking under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), U.S. Code (USC) Title 54, Section 306108 (54 USC 306108); therefore, an identification-phase cultural resources survey of the project...

Cultural Resources Survey for Two Proposed Demolition Ranges at Richardson Training Area, JBER, Alaska (2012)
Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson (JBER) has proposed to construct two new demolition ranges—Demolition Range “A” and Demolition Range “B”—at the Richardson Training Area (RTA), with new access roads proposed at each range. During the period of September 18-22, AECOM archaeologists, under the direct supervision of Principal Investigator Edmund Gaines, M.A., R.PA., performed a cultural resources survey of the project’s APEs. This work was conducted for the 673d Civil Engineer Squadron,...
Culturally Modified Trees of the Pacific Northwest: How do we define what is protected and not protected under the HCA in British Columbia. (2016)
In British Columbia, archaeologists are challenged with the task of identifying and recording Culturally Modified Trees (or CMTs) with some live trees dating back to the early seventeenth century. How these features are recorded as archaeological sites, are guided and managed by the BC Archaeology Branch under the Heritage Conservation Act (HCA). This provincial ministry is constantly changing departments, and sometimes change how they would like archaeologists to inventory and manage CMTs. Up...
Final Cultural Resource Survey, Proposed USPFO Facility, Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Anchorage, Alaska (2013)
The Alaska Army National Guard (AKARNG) proposed to build a new United States Property and Fiscal Office (USPFO) at Camp Denali on Joint Base Elmendorf Fort Richardson (JBER), (formed by administratively combining Elmendorf Air Force Base-EAFB and Fort Richardson), near Anchorage, Alaska. Some surface and subsurface remains associated with the Army's Fort Richardson facility and the National Guard's Camp Denali and Camp Carroll facility may be present on the APE. The AKARNG had contracted with...
Finding a Path Through the Trees: Using Multiple Lines of Evidence to Understand the Association of Culturally Modified Trees and the Community in Steilacoom, Washington (2018)
The discovery of Culturally Modified Trees (CMTs) within an area slated for development necessitated a detailed analysis to confirm the age and association of these trees as part of the local planning process. Controversary surrounded the development and neighbors were quick to engage the local Native American communities with the goal of halting the development. At least six CMTs were identified; however, the type, size, and modification of the trees did not adhere to the typical traits of CMTs...

Living Landscapes and Moving Cultures (2017)
Culturally Modified Trees (CMTs) in the Central Interior of British Columbia are well known and extensively documented. While there are several types of CMTs, the most common in the interior, by far, are barked stripped Lodgepole Pine for the purpose of cambium collection as a food resource. The majority of the discussion and analysis of CMTs is field-based and primarily focuses on scar identification to determine cultural origin, dating methods, mapping and describing locales where large...

A Needed Audit in Perspective around Culturally Modified Trees within the Pacific Northwest (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper is a critical appraisal of cultural resource management protocols associated with Indigenous Culturally Modified Trees, (CMTs). Living artifacts, eco-facts, or vivio-facts provide rich and powerful accounts of human interactions with a setting. These features challenge western views of what constitutes materiality of the past, a recognition,...
Ponderosa Pine Culturally Modified Trees (CMTs) at Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, Colorado: What We Have Learned from 40 Years of Recording, Dating, Analyzing, and Consulting with Tribal Peoples (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Entangled Legacies: Human, Forest, and Tree Dynamics" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Ponderosa pine trees with cultural modifications, primarily bark peeling and wood removal, were first officially documented in Colorado at Great Sand Dunes in the late 1970s by the author for her master’s thesis. At that time, CMTs were not recorded as cultural resources in Colorado. Since then, several hundred ponderosa pine CMTs...
Scarred Ponderosas, Rock Art, and other Traces of Ute History: New Evidence from the Rio Grande Del Norte National Monument (2017)
This poster reports on an archaeological survey in the Rio Grande Del Norte National Monument that has revealed important new evidence of the Ute and other hunter-gatherers dating to the late pre-colonial and early colonial periods. Of particular interest are a series of culturally modified Ponderosa pine trees, which are likely linked to Ute foodways employed during period of starvation or want. I examine these culturally modified trees as artifacts on the landscape within the context of the...
