The Beeline Archaeological Project (1990)
The Salt River Project (SRP) and Arizona Public Service Company (APS) constructed three transmission lines along a portion of the Beeline Highway on the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community (SRPMIC).

The data suggests that archaeological sites in this area are numerous and varied, but most of all poorly-studied despite 100 years of research. A...
The Structure and Organization of Basketmaker III Field Houses at the Cottonwood Seep Site (1993)
Early settlement of the Cottonwood Seep Site consisted of small, informal pit structures and large jacal surface structures that were used on a seasonal basis for a period from approximately A.D. 500 until about A.D. 800.

Unlike many of the surrounding Basketmaker III field house sites, the Cottonwood Seep...
