Northland Research, Inc. (Northland) has completed archaeological testing of a 6.4 acre parcel of private land for the Paradise Palms II development. The purpose of the testing was to determine the nature, extent, and potential significance of buried cultural resources within the Paradise Palms II parcel. The testing was necessary because the housing development is partially located within the recorded boundary of Pueblo Viejo, a large prehistoric Hohokam settlement that is eligible for the...

PROJECT Gordon Rakita. M Scott Thompson.

The study of prehistoric mortuary practices in the American Southwest is undergoing tremendous change in the new millennium. The challenges (and opportunities) of NAGPRA implementation, declines in the number of large samples being excavated, and loss of data from previously excavated samples have altered mortuary archaeology in the region. Given this state of affairs, the development of an integrated regional database of prehistoric mortuary practices is imperative. This session at the 76th...

The large number of mortuary features identified in extensive excavations across the Phoenix Basin presents a unique opportunity and challenge for the creation of a regional data set. This paper presents a preliminary effort to construct a database of mortuary programs practiced at large Hohokam villages in the Salt River valley. It discusses the variables necessary to describe both Pre-Classic and Classic period mortuary remains documented at different settlements along...
