This report presents the results of a Class III cultural resources survey of the right-of-way corridor and associated work areas for a new double circuit 500kV/230kV transmission line to be built between the existing Salt River Project (SRP) Browning Substation in Mesa, Maricopa County, Arizona and the proposed SRP Dinosaur Substation located on unincorporated, state-owned land east of Queen Creek in Pinal County, Arizona. The survey was requested by...
Diversity in Hohokam Subsistence Strategies: A View from The Big Canal (1986)
This paper will synthesize the macrobotanical findings from the Tucson Aqueduct Project, Phase A (TAP), conducted by the Museum of Northern Arizona and will highlight some of the pollen and flotation results from the Salt-Gila Aqueduct Project (SGA), completed by the Arizona State Museum. Both projects were segments of the Central Arizona Project, a huge canal bringing water from the Colorado River to the farms and towns of southern Arizona. The ...
Hohokam Archaeology along the Salt-Gila Aqueduct Central Arizona Project, Volume I: Research Design (1982)
This volume is the first in a series of publications associated with the Salt-Gila Aqueduct Archaeological Data Collection Studies and Supplemental Class 3 Survey Project (SGA). The project focuses principally upon data recovery at those sites potentially subject to impact as a consequence of Central Arizona Project construction along a route extending 97 km from a point south of Apache Junction, Arizona, to the Picacho Reservoir. This initial volume incorporates the results of test excavations...
Hohokam Archaeology along the Salt-Gila Aqueduct Central Arizona Project, Volume IV: Prehistoric Occupation of the Queen Creek Delta (1984)
This is the fourth volume in a nine-volume series that reports archaeological investigations along the Salt-Gila Aqueduct in southcentral Arizona. The aqueduct, under construction by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, is a 58-mile-long component of the Central Arizona Project; it begins east of Phoenix and extends to the vicinity of the Picacho Mountains. This volume reports excavations conducted at the three largest sites located north of the Gila River in the Aqueduct study area. All will be...
Hohokam Archaeology along the Salt-Gila Aqueduct Central Arizona Project, Volume IX: Synthesis and Conclusions (1984)
This volume is the last in a series of nine reporting the work of the Salt-Gila Aqueduct, Central Arizona Project Archaeological Data Collection Studies and Supplemental Class 3 Survey Project (SGA). This study was funded by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Contract No. 0-0732- V0101) to mitigate potential adverse impacts of Central Arizona Project construction on cultural resources in the aqueduct right-of-way. Data recovery was conducted at 45 Hohokam sites along a 93 km (58 mile) transect...
Hohokam Archaeology along the Salt-Gila Aqueduct Central Arizona Project, Volume VII: Environment and Subsistence (1984)
This is the seventh volume of a nine-volume series reporting archaeological investigations in south-central Arizona along the SaltGila Aqueduct (SGA), conducted for the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) under Contract No. 0-07-32-V0101. The SGA is a 58-mile-Iong component of the Central Arizona Project that begins east of Phoenix and extends to the vicinity of the Picacho Mountains. During the course of the analyses presented in this volume, it became apparent that any attempt to approach...
Hohokam Archaeology along the Salt-Gila Aqueduct Central Arizona Project, Volume VIII: Material Culture (1984)
This is the eighth volume of a nine-volume series reporting archaeological investigations in south-central Arizona along the SaltGila Aqueduct (SGA), conducted for the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) under Contract No. 0-07-32-V0101. The SGA is a 58-mile-Iong component of the Central Arizona Project that begins east of Phoenix and extends to the vicinity of the Picacho Mountains. Specialized analyses of artifacts recovered from 45 sites excavated along the SGA are reported in this volume. The...
Hohokam Farming on the Salt River Floodplain: Refining Models and Analytical Methods (2004)
This is the second of two volumes presenting the results of data recovery investigations at the Dutch Canal Ruin (AZ T:12:62 [ ASM]), conducted by Desert Archaeology, Inc., at the western end of the North Runway, Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. The Dutch Canal Ruin is a prehistoric agricultural site, dating between 1,700 and 500 years ago, consisting of fieldhouses and farmsteads scattered along a network of canals on the geological floodplain of the Salt River. The first volume...
Return to Siphon Draw: Archaeological Investigations Along the Browning to Dinosaur 500kV/230kV Transmission Line, Pinal County, Arizona (2009)
The results of archaeological investigations at three prehistoric Hohokam sites within the right-of-way corridor for the Salt River Project Browning to Dinosaur Transmission Line, east of Mesa and Queen Creek, Arizona, are presented in this report. The sites include the Siphon Draw site, AZ U:10:6 (ASM), a pre-Classic period (circa A.D. 800-1000) village; AZ U:10:8 (ASM), a classic period (circa A.D. 1150-1450) wild resource-processing and habitation site; and AZ U:10:172 (ASM), a Colonial...
Salt-Gila Aqueduct (Fannin-McFarland Aqueduct) Archaeological Data Collection Studies and Supplemental Class III Survey Project
