Prevailing theories of the evolution of early complex societies in southern Mesopotamia presume a uniform, arid landscape transited by Tigris and Euphrates distributaries. These theories hold that it was the seventh millennium BCE introduction of irrigation technologies from the northern alluvium to the south that began the punctuated evolution of Mesopotamian irrigation schemes. In this view, irrigation-dependent agro-pastoral production was the primary stimulus to urbanization and, millennia...

The purpose of this study was to project the levels of archaeological and historical sensitivity and determine relative levels of impacts that could potentially occur with the introduction of the proposed Mead to Phoenix ±500kV DC Transmission Line. The results of the regional study, conducted from July through September of 1982, identifies previously recorded archaeological and historical sites, predicts areas where encountering sites are probable and establishes criteria to determine the...

The Carlsbad Field Office contracted Versar, Inc. to conduct remedial archaeological data recovery excavations at the Merchant site (LA 43414), a complex village settlement in southeastern New Mexico. The Merchant site was excavated by the Lea County Archaeological Society (LCAS) from 1959 to 1965, but the results of the excavations were never fully reported. The site was fundamental to the definition of the Ochoa phase, but the nature of the phase had remained poorly known since the excavations...

The Central Arizona Project (CAP) , Indian Distribution Division (IDD) is designed to deliver allocated CAP water to Indian users. The Middle Gila Basin Overview is the initial cultural resources planning study for the system. It summarizes and evaluates the extant data in an area 3,570 square miles (9,139 sq km) large, centered on the Gila River. 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...

Following the cycle of economic depression of the 1920s and 1930s, and the manpower shortage caused by the outbreak of the Second World War, the various reclamation projects in the western United States suffered from broken-down systems. The Salt River Project, which serves the Phoenix metropolitan area with water and power, was one of these reclamation projects. Canals and laterals that carried invaluable irrigation water seeped and leaked, resulting in water losses of twenty-five percent; many...

The cultural resources Class I Inventory consisted of a records review of the Roosevelt Lake flood control space. This study area falls within a larger area surrounding Roosevelt Lake that was the focus of Reclamation-sponsored cultural resources studies conducted from the mid-1970s through the 1990s as part of the Central Arizona Water Control Study Plan 6 environmental review and prescribed mitigation associated with increasing the height of the dam to its current height. Inventories conducted...

Between March 9 and April 6 2009, PaleoWest Solutions in Archaeology monitored approximately 45-50 meters (m) of utility trenching. Two trenches were excavated to a depth of approximately 2.25 m for the new Arizona Federal Credit Union (AFCU) building currently under construction. The longest trench, only a portion of which was monitored (approximately 35-40 m), ran across the entire width of the street. The second trench, also only a portion of which was monitored (approximately 10 m), was...

Mormon Flat Dam, constructed between 1923 and 1925, was the first dam built by the Salt River Valley Valley Water Users' Association (Association) in its aggressive, and privately-funded, hydroelectric expansion program. In 1938, the Bureau of Reclamation constructed a new gatehouse superstructure and spillway discharge channel to improve efficiency during major flood events. Mormon Flat Dam consists of the dam, spillway, and its attached powerhouse. The 1971 reversible pump turbine facility is...

The Reductive Technologies Group (RTG) was responsible for supporting the broad research goals of the DAP through the implementation of mid-level research design governing the collection and analysis of data from “artifacts which were manufactured by reductive, or subtractive techniques” (Phagan 1986a:79). The RTG was headed by Roger A. Moore between 1978 and 1979 and by Carl J. Phagan from 1979 to 1985, with the assistance of T. Homer Hruby between 1980 and 1984; supporting work was provided by...
