To this end, archaeological research has been conducted over the course of 23 years, beginning in the early 1960s (Synenki 1987). While this research has provided valuable information, not only did important interpretive questions remain, but it was...

The current upgrade project was designed to bring these systems up to higher standards to...


Archeological Notes On Texas Canyon, Arizona No.1 (1934)
DOCUMENT Full-Text William Shirley Fulton.

The area covered in this paper is, generally speaking, the drainage of the upper Texas Canyon, near Dragoon, Cochise County, Arizona.

The elevation at this point is about 4,800 feet, and the climate is typically that of the Southwest at a like elevation. In the winter months it is warm in the daytime, cold at night, with an occasional snow flurry, and very little rain. The summer...

DOCUMENT Full-Text Smithsonian Institute, Missouri Basin Project, Lincoln, NE.

As the result of a number of circumstances, excavation has far out-shipped the publication of results. Of course, such a lag is often inevitable, however as a stop-gap, this summary is...
