Results of excavations at two sites between Sunset Road and Ruthrauff Road along Interstate 10 (I-10) are reported here. The work was conducted as part of the I-10 Frontage Roads Improvement Project for the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). The site of El Taller, AZ AA:12:92 (ASM), contains three temporal components possibly dating as early as the Middle Archaic period to Hohokam times. The excavated portion of the Rillito Fan site, AZ AA:12:788 (ASM), dates to the Classic period,...

The City of Phoenix (City) involved construction of approximately 0.3 mile (0.5 kilometer [km]).The City used fill material previously stockpiled within the alignment of an unbuilt segment. The project also included construction of curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and drainage ditches along each side of the new street, and culverts to direct storm water beneath the roadway. After monitoring identified archaeological features, the City modified the scope of work to include data recovery excavations....

Predictive site location modeling and sample survey conducted in the Kawich Range of the Central Great Basin resulted in the identification of over 200 largely pristine archaeological sites containing a diversity of features and artifacts. Identified sites range in age from the Pre-Archaic to the Ethnohistoric period. Site distribution patterns correlate well with the predictions of the model and, together with information shared by Native American participants, serve to document the extensive...

In 1964 Congress authorized Ozark National Scenic Riverways (OZAR) and the park was officially established in 1972. It is one of the initial eight wild and scenic rivers designated by the federal government. OZAR encompasses a linear corridor along ca. 241 km (ca. 150 miles) of the Current and Jack Fork Rivers in the Ozark Highlands of southeast Missouri. The park contains a variety of prehistoric and historic archeological resources. A total of 480 sites are recorded in the files of either...

During 1988 a survey was conducted of 704 acres along trails and 433 acres of proposed burn areas, covering a total of 1,137 acres (Utah Project #U88-NA-184N). Eight prehistoric sites and seven historic sites were recorded. The prehistoric sites are small- to medium-sized lithic scatters, each of which appears to have resulted from one or several episodes of temporary use. Several characteristics of settlement strategies and lithic material use patterns have been observed in analysis of the...

The preliminary investigation of the hunting complex was essentially a blind reconnaissance performed on a volunteer basis. The primary goal was to locate, and document as thoroughly as possible, all portions of the drift fence and any potentially related sites. As the investigation proceeded, attempts at interpretation required continual revision with new findings. By the end of the field season, the primary goal of locating the drift fence in its entirety was accomplished, however the initial...

Recent research on the Garrett Allen site has discussed the excavation history, projectile points and chronology of the site (Eckles 2013), chipped stone raw materials and obsidian sourcing (Eckles and Guinard 2015), chipped stone projectile points (Eckles and Miller 2019), and research potential of the collection (Clauter 2013). Data on these topics have indicated support for the idea the site represents a series of special place gatherings over about 3,100 years of prehistoric occupation....

The Bozovich family archaeological collection contains over 5,000 surface-collected artifacts from 712 sites in southwestern Wyoming during the period between 1932 and 1992. All the artifacts were cataloged with their own catalog number . Data were then entered into an IBM-PC computer using the Dbase III (r) software program. Specific objectives were to: 1. Place all artifacts into approximate archaeological time periods. 2. Make sets of tables for various time periods on: artifact types;...

The Campbell Hollow site (11ST144) is located in the lower Illinois River valley in Scott Country, Illinois. Late Woodland remains were primarily encountered in the plow zone, and two buried Archaic components were excavated in 1980 and 1981. Early and Middle Archaic remains were buried by over 2 m of sediment at the toe of colluvial slope on the east side of the Illinois River valley near the entrance of a small stream (Campbell Hollow Creek) into the main valley. The Archaic encampments are...
