This work was done under contract with the Arizona State Parks (P.O. #S-81-02). Testing of AZ EE:9:91 was carried out to better determine the nature and extent of the site, and to aid in determining what impacts proposed campground development might have upon the site. The site is at an elevation of...

This report discusses the new developments and presents the basis for conclusions made regarding the archaeological assessments.
Cholla Project Archaeology, Volume 2, The Chevelon Region (1982)
The Arizona Public Service Cholla-Saguaro Transmission Line Mitigation Project, an undertaking as large in scope as its full title suggests, began in April of 1977. It is hereafter referred to as Cholla. The project's obvious purpose was to mitigate construction impact on prehistoric sites along that portion of the line extending from the Cholla generating plant near the Little Colorado River to the upper drainage of Devore Wash south of Lake Roosevelt, a distance of 135 transmission-line miles....

The proposed railroad will intersect the existing alignment of the road, therefore, the road must be realigned. SRP contracted with SWCA Inc., Environmental Consultants (SWCA), to conduct a cultural resource survey for two proposed realignment segments. The lead agency for the cultural resources is the U.S....
Discovery and future of the lost fleet of the Mongol Empire (2016)
The story of Kamikaze, or the legendary storm that destroyed the ill-fated fleet of Khublai Khan off Japan, is a well known story in history.

Prehistoric Agricultural Strategies in West-Central New Mexico (1987)
Environmental fluctuations are frequently cited as a major factor effecting population displacement and cultural development in the American Southwest. Recent research suggests that the interaction of environmental, demographic, and behavioral variables might account for these presumed causal relationships, but behavioral responses to environmental fluctuations remain poorly understood. The environmental factors most likely to have been stressful to agriculturalists such as the prehistoric...
RADIOCARBON DATES ON SAMPLES FROM THE CARBON AND CLAY CORES OF A BUDDHA STATUE AND ASSOCIATED NAGA THRONE, SRI VIJAYA PERIOD STATUARY (2009)
A large, bronze Thai sculpture of a Buddha and Naga, thought to be from the Sri Vijaya Empire in southern Thailand contained carbon and clay cores, which yielded sufficient carbon for radiocarbon dating. This statuary, cast in two pieces, is reputed to be from the Sri Vijaya Empire in the late 12th to mid 13th century. Radiocarbon dating of samples from both portions of this statuary was completed to verify the dates.
