The Racetrack Project
Between A.D. 1250 and 1450, a large number of ceremonial racetracks were built at and between villages in north-central Arizona. This assemblage began as a relatively dispersed collection, stretching from the Sedona area down to Cave Creek and from the Bradshaw Mountains to the Mazatzal Wilderness. Over time, the racetrack network grew in intensity but became spatially focused atop Perry Mesa, along the middle Agua Fria River. In conjunction with the Legacies on the Landscape Project and...

Report of the 2007 Archaeological Survey of Northwestern Portions of Perry Mesa within the Agua Fria National Monument, Yavapai County, Arizona (2005)
In the Spring and Summer of 2007 Arizona State University (ASU) conducted pedestrian survey of approximately 300 hectares of the northwestern portion of Perry Mesa region in Yavapai County, Arizona. All survey areas were located within the Agua Fria National Monument (AFNM) managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). All survey areas and located archaeological features are within the Perry Mesa National Register District. During this field season, archaeological survey efforts were focused...
Report of the Spring 2005 Field Season (2005)
The document begins with an overview of the Legacies Project spring 2005 fieldwork. Subsequent chapters include: Agave Types and Distributions, Agricultural Impacts on Soil Compaction and and Settlement Size at Agua Fria National Monument, Legacy Effects on Herbaceous Plants on Agua Fria National Monument, Transect Survey Report at Richinbar, Architectural Studies at Richinbar Ruin, and an Agricultural Site Survey.
Report of the Spring 2005 Field Season: Legacies on the Landscape: Archaeological and Ecological Research at Agua Fria National Monument (2005)
The Legacies project is a long-term, collaborative research and teaching project between archaeology and ecology faculty and students at Arizona State University. The goal of the project is to document and understand the long-term ecological impacts of the prehistoric occupation of the semi-arid landscape of Agua Fria National Monument in central Arizona. The field research is organized through a seminar in which ecology and archaeology faculty jointly engage students in the collection and...

Seasonality and Ecosystem Response in Two Prehistoric Agricultural Regions of Central Arizona (2011)
Around the globe, prehistoric agriculture has impacted the environment in ways that are observable today. Prehistoric farmers in the Southwestern US modified the landscape with rock alignments to support rain fed agriculture in this semi-arid region. Numerous studies have shown that former agricultural fields are ecologically different than areas that have not been farmed. This thesis explores the independent effects of the manipulation of rocks into alignments, prehistoric farming, and season...

Small Site Analysis in the Southwest: A Comparative Analysis of Two Communities on Perry Mesa, Arizona (2007)
Landscapes across the American Southwest are littered with prehistoric structures of less than 10 rooms used for a variety of functions – from seasonal field houses, to storage, to year-long residences, to boundary markers. These structures, while largely ignored in much of the archaeological literature, can provide information on the human impact across an entire landscape, instead of simply focusing on the pueblo itself or on the agricultural fields. How, then, can these small architectural...

A Spatial Analysis of the Level of Constructedness of the Small Sites around Pueblo la Plata and Pueblo Pato (2007)
The level of constructedness of archaeological sites can provide insight into the amount of planning, labor and time invested into building structures. Further understanding into the time, labor and planning invested into architecture can allow for inferences to made on the residential mobility of the population, intensity of surrounding land use and social importance assigned to each pueblo (Cameron 1999). This paper will explore and compare the architectural constructedness of small sites...
Spring 2004 Architecture Studies at Pueblo La Plata (2004)
Studies of the architecture of Pueblo La Plata, particularly room construction sequences, formed one component of the Legacies on the Landscape project research in 2004. The goals of this portion of the project were to improve our understanding of how the pueblo was built, and to gain a sense of population size and changes over time. In particular, we wished to determine whether a sizeable core area of rooms (representing the first construction phase of the pueblo) was visible, and whether the...
