It is widely recognized that prehistoric peoples of the American Southwest cultivated and utilized agave to a great extent. The occupants of three 13th-14th century sites, found on Perry and Black Mesas in Arizona’s Agua Fria National Monument, did just that. How and to what extent their agricultural actions have affected modern day agave populations is a topic of much interest. The purpose of this paper is to provide an account of intersite agave variability among Pueblo La Plata, Pueblo Pato,...

Beginning in 2006 and as part of Arizona State University’s Legacies on the Landscape Project (Spielmann et al. 2005), I undertook preliminary research regarding a small corpus of long, linear clearings in the Perry Mesa region of Central Arizona. Coined “racetracks”, these had been recorded at the eight largest pueblos on Perry Mesa and neighboring Black Mesa. They had been noted by past archaeologists (e.g., Ahlstrom and Roberts 1995:37; Ahlstrom et al. 1992; North 2002; Wilcox et al. 2001;...

This paper addresses the changes to the noria platform and to noria technology of north-central Yucatán. I question whether personal preference influenced differentiation of the technology or if specific utilitarian activities dictated more standardization through time. I use statistical analysis to determine if there is equal variance among the noria openings and platforms. By comparing three different property types (haciendas, ranchos, and conventos) the data indicates the noria...

While the archaeological work at Pueblo La Plata has begun to provide critical data concerning prehistoric demography, ceramic accumulations, and use of plants and animals, it was on the transect surveys that the collaboration between archaeological and ecological research came to fruition in the 2004 field season. This report discusses the data collection protocol that was developed to collect archaeological, small mammal, plant, and rock cover data on these transects, and presents preliminary...

Data recovery within a small portion of La Plaza, AZ U:9:165 (ASM), revealed both prehistoric and historic remains. The prehistoric component included seven structure remnants, four cremation burials, six pits, 17 canal segments, and three miscellaneous features. Absolute and relative dates suggest occupation by the Hohokam during portions of the Colonial, Sedentary, and early Classic periods. The habitation-related features and burials were clustered in the northwest corner of the project...
