The Fourmile Wash Data Recovery Project (SWCA Project No. 22-88160-1) included excavation and other data recovery activities at eight archaeological sites located in northwestern Maricopa County, Arizona. The excavations were conducted between 18 April and 5 May 1988 by SWCA, Inc., under contract with Headquarters West, Ltd. The project was necessitated by the fact that these sites are located on lands administered by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) that were scheduled to be transferred...

The sediments dataset is a catalog of the geological samples used in a study of the physical and chemical properties of local soils. The chemical and granulometric analyses conducted on these samples contributed to an evaluation of potential for successful dry-land agriculture in the Dolores Valley. Soils in the project area are generally derived from eolian parent material and exhibit a loamy texture that indicates their suitability for agricultural production (Decker and Petersen 1987)....

This report presents the results of a geophysical study of five sites on KAFB. The objectives for the geophysical study were two fold: (1) to explore the effectiveness of near surface geophysical techniques for verifying the presence and nature of architectural and other cultural features and (2) to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of each of the four remote sensing techniques being employed--resistivity, gradiometer, magnetometer, and ground penetrating radar (GPR)--by assessing their...

Fort St. Joseph is a 17th-18th century French (and later English) mission-garrison-trading post complex located in southwest Michigan. A geophysical survey was performed and the results of the survey were tested through archaeological excavation. The geophysical methods included ground penetrating radar, electromagnetic induction, electrical resistivity, magnetic gradiometry, and magnetic susceptibility. The results of the archaeological excavations demonstrate that magnetic gradiometry was the...

Archaeological data recovery at the Gibbon's Ranch site (AZ BB:9:275 [ASM]) was the final phase of studies conducted by SWCA for Canoa Homes and Sunchase Holdings. The work was required to fulfill stipulations of Section 404 permitting (under the Clean Waters Act) and for a Pima County grading permit. Richard Perry of the Corps of Engineers, Los Angeles District, managed the 404 permit application and Linda Mayro, Pima County Archaeologist, oversaw archaeological documentation for the Pima...

The focus of this volume is the lower Colorado River valley, one of the least understood regions of the American Southwest. After over 50 years of archaeological research, the lower Colorado River remains a mystery. No major prehistoric habitation site has been located, presumably because they have all been destroyed by the river. Consequently, even the rudiments of culture history remain to be worked out. When did people arrive in the area? What did they live on? How did culture evolve in this...

This is an Arizona Site Steward file for the Goldfield site which is located on Bureau of Land Management and privately owned land. The site consists of mounds and rock features, likely indicative of a Hohokam habitation site, as well as a plaza and artifact scatter. The file consists of a site information sheet, map of the site location, and cultural resource site record form. The earliest document is dated 1984.
