This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 2017, the Alabama Department of Archives and History (ADAH) received NAGPRA inquiries regarding its archaeological collection. This prompted a re-examination of the organization’s 1990s response to NAGPRA, and led to the conclusion that the ADAH was unintentionally incompliant with the law. Staff began development of a multiphase project not only to become compliant, but also to...

The Reductive Technologies Group (RTG) was responsible for supporting the broad research goals of the DAP through the implementation of mid-level research design governing the collection and analysis of data from “artifacts which were manufactured by reductive, or subtractive techniques” (Phagan 1986a:79). The RTG was headed by Roger A. Moore between 1978 and 1979 and by Carl J. Phagan from 1979 to 1985, with the assistance of T. Homer Hruby between 1980 and 1984; supporting work was provided by...

In the Wind River and southern portion of the Big Horn Basins there are ancient Native American drawings of super-humanoids, animals, and geometric figures. Exactitude in understanding or deciphering these ancient religious/artistic endeavors is not available, however, a general understanding and expanded appreciation can be obtained. And, hopefully with that understanding, a desire to see they are protected from both intentional and unintentional vandalism.

Photographs are one of the few remaining ways to examine the now inundated archaeological sites in the DAP. Photographic images add context to specific aspects of Anasazi life in the DAP area; in a sense, DAP photography "provides the investigator with ways to understand the spatial integration of households and communities" (Wilshusen et al. 1999:115). Only a fraction of all photographs taken during the project can be found in the published series of DAP reports. Individuals wishing to access...

Fort Center, located in Glades County, Florida, provides evidence of Late Archaic; Early, Middle, and Late Woodland, Belle Glades, Calusa, Protohistoric, Seminole, and finally 19th and 20th century occupations. Thus, occupation at this 2.5 square km earthwork site dates between 800 BC and at least the late 1800s (Victor Thompson, personal communication, September 2010). Earlier work at this site included pollen analysis that reported consistent finds of Zea mays pollen. Verification or denial of...

A metate was recovered from Feature 1, a large storage pit that yielded a calibrated radiocarbon age of AD 1400-1450 on corn from the fill. This Late Plains Village or early Protohistoric site is located in a dune field between the Cimarron and Beaver River drainages in western Oklahoma. The grinding surface of the metate was washed to recover pollen evidence of foods that might have been ground.

Reclamation projects have involved collaborative efforts with two of Arizona’s largest Native American groups, the Navajo Nation and the Tohono O’odham Nation. Both involved construction of infrastructure to support traditional and cooperative farming. The Navajo Nation project involved the creation of an award-winning DVD of Navajo elders discussing traditional irrigation farming at Ganado, and the Tohono O’odham Nation project involved extensive testing prior to construction of new irrigation...
