The Schoolhouse Point Mesa archaeological sites are part of an extensive settlement system on the southern banks of the Salt River. The Arizona State University, Office of Cultural Resource Management, Roosevelt Platform Mound Study (RPMS) divided the Schoolhouse Point Mesa settlement complex into two groups: the Schoolhouse Management Group and the Livingston Management Group. The Schoolhouse Management Group includes those sites on the west side of Pinto Creek Wash, while the Livingston...

Investigations of 20 prehistoric and historic sites in the Globe-Miami area were undertaken as the result of plans for the realignment of State Route 88 (SR 88) between Tonto National Monument and the junction of US 60 in the Globe-Miami area, Gila County. Archaeological Consulting Services, Ltd. (ACS) carried out this study under contract to the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). Fieldwork was conducted on ADOT right-of-way on the Tonto National Forest (Forest) with special-use...

As part of the State Route 88-Wheatfields (SR 88-Wheatfields) project, Archaeological Consulting Services, Inc., (ACS) was provided the opportunity to investigate portions of 20 prehistoric and historic archaeological sites in the Globe Highlands of central Arizona (Figure 1, Table 1). These resources represented a broad spectrum of the cultural trajectory that distinguished this region, extending from the Late Archaic-Historic periods. Most sites were occupied between the Late Formative and...

The present work is an archaeological study of the settlement zone of the greater Blue Creek Area, located in the upper Rio Hondo drainage of northwestern Belize. The excavation data reported here were recovered during the 1997 and 1998 field seasons of the Maya Research Program's Blue Creek Project inder the direction of Dr. Thomas H. Guderjan PhD.

Data regarding the grave form, dimensions, integrity, & placement of human remains within the feature were collected in the field by burial excavators using Soil Systems, Inc.'s cremation summary form. This form & coding sheets derived from it can also be found in tDAR. Bone mass data were collected in the lab by one of SSI's osteologists. Twenty-seven cremations were excavated during this project. All remains & associated artifacts were repatriated to the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian...

These data were recorded in the field by burial excavators using Soil Systems, Inc.'s inhumation summary form. This form & coding sheets derived from it can be found in tDAR. Types of data collected included variables related to grave form & dimensions, position & orientation of the human remains contained within, and integrity of the feature & associated human remains. Fourteen inhumations were excavated during this project. All remains & associated artifacts were repatriated to the Salt River...

Pueblo Grande demography/paleopathology data sets are by burial group (BG) under each project heading. If the burial group for a feature is unknown, the data are identified only at the project area or stripping area level. Data contained include age, sex, stature, and presence/absence of various indicators of stress and infectious disease listing elements affected. Stature estimates (when preservation allowed for measurements of femur and/or tibia length) were calculated using corrected...

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...

This report provides an overview of six years of fieldwork and research at the Blue Creek site. At this stage the project is designed to be an investigation of the internal structure of a single Maya city, with consideration of the city's temporal and functional dynamics as well as relationships with its neighbors. This report summarizes the status of these efforts both topically and in terms of fieldwork accomplished and future field seasons.

This data set contains several sheets of data on burial features and isolated human remains documented by the Animas-La Plata project during data recovery at a number of sites in Ridges Basin, SW Colorado. One sheet presents data for recorded burial features and individual interments. Three other sheets present data on isolated human remains uncovered at these sites.

Mortuary data from Pueblo I sites in the Dolores and Animas-La Plata Project areas suggest that the structural and nonstructural contexts of burials are critical to understanding mortuary practice in this pivotal era and in earlier and later Ancestral Pueblo groups. Extramural interment contexts and their spatial relationships to houses, surface structures, and stockades are worthy of systematic study. Pithouse burials on floors and benches, in ventilators and in fill, vary in temporal relation...

A key question in economic history is the degree to which preindustrial economies could generate sustained increases in per capita productivity. Previous studies suggest that, in many preindustrial contexts, growth was primarily a consequence of agglomeration. Here, we examine evidence for three different socioeconomic rates that are available from the archaeological record for Roman Britain. We find that all three measures show increasing returns to scale with settlement population, with a...
