Ojo Bonito Archaeological Project (OBAP)
A survey and excavation project directed by Keith Kintigh and executed from 1983 through 1994. Approximate 58km2 were surveyed and 560 sites were recorded. Substantial excavations were undertaken at the Hinkson Site great house complex and Jaralosa Pueblo. Test excavations were completed at H-Spear, a Chacoan Great House located by the project and Ojo Bonito Pueblo. The project took place on the ranch of Mrs. Everett (Mabel) Hinkson (deceased). Most of the project work was done as a part of...
Post-Chacoan Social Integration at the Hinkson Site, New Mexico (1996)
The century following the collapse of Chaco is often viewed as a time of cultural backsliding. However, imposing sites with Chaco-inspired public architecture provide evidence of large communities, dating between A.D. 1200 and 1275, that laid the organizational foundations of well-known Pueblo IV towns. This article reports on excavations at one such Zuni-area settlement. the Hinkson site. In this site, 32 residential room blocks surround a great house complex that includes an unroofed, oversize...
The Process of Aggregation in the Post-Chacoan Era: A Case Study from the Lower Zuni Region (1995)
During the post-Chacoan period (A.D. I 175- 1225) the first aggregated sites in the Zuni Region of the American Southwest were built. This research examines a shift in regional settlement patterns and the reorganization of sociopolitical systems during this initial period of aggregation in the lower Zuni River region. A chronology for the post-Chacoan settlements in the case study area is built using ceramic type data. The results suggest that the process of aggregation in the Zuni region can...

The Shaw Butte Hilltop Site: A Prehistoric Hohokam Observatory (1996)
The Sonoran Desert of Southern Arizona was once occupied by the prehistoric Hohokam, a group of agriculturalists who constructed thousands of kilometers of irrigation canals as well as public architecture, including platform mounds and bailcourts. They also appear to have been keen astronomical observers, although the subject of Hohokam archaeoastronomy remains underexplored. This paper summarizes previous Hohokam archaeoastronomy studies, discusses O'odham (Piman) Indian calendar systems,...

The Use History of LZ 1209 and LZ 1204 in the El Morro Valley NM_MA Paper Draft (2005)
This paper examines the use history of roomblocks within a Post-Chacoan era (circa AD 1225 – 1275) community in the El Morro Valley, New Mexico. It estimates the resident population and calculates the occupation span of LZ 1209 and LZ 1204 in the Los Gigantes site cluster, a group of more than a dozen residential roomblocks dating to the late Pueblo III period. The roomblocks were subjected to an intensive stratified random sampling procedure modeled after the Sand Canyon Small Site Testing...
