The Dolores Project was a large water project constructed by the Bureau of Reclamation in extreme southwestern Colorado. The Dolores Archaeological Program was responsible for the Dolores Project Cultural Resources Mitigation Program under Bureau of Reclamation Contract No. 8-07-40-S0562. At the request of the Bureau of Reclamation, the Dolores Archaeological Program produced this report entitled Dolores Archaeological Program Synthetic Report 1978-1981. This report provides the Bureau of...

A user's guide to the Dolores Archaeological Program data, compiled with assistance from a State Historical Fund grant from the Colorado Historical Society. This is highly recommended as a point of entry into the large and complex DAP datasets. It contains a general introduction to the DAP and its datasets, by Richard Wilshusen; an introduction to the provenience data and DAP temporal-spatial taxonomy and interpretations, by Christine Ward; brief descriptions of each of the major databases; an...

This report provides a substantive and administrative summary of the results of an intensive archaeological survey of about 9 square kilometers along the Zuni River in east-central Arizona that was conducted by the University of Arizona, Arizona State Museum. This survey was funded by a Survey and Planning Grant from the National Park Service administered by the Arizona State Historic Preservation Office and by matching funds provided by the University of Arizona. Because this final report for...

This report provides a substantive and administrative summary of the results of an intensive archaeological survey of about 8 square kilometers along the Zuni River in east-central Arizona about 25 miles north-northeast of St. Johns. The survey was directed by Keith W. Kintigh of the Department of Anthropology, Arizona State University. This survey has been funded with the assistance of a matching grant-in-aid from the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, under provisions of the...

The Reductive Technologies Group (RTG) was responsible for supporting the broad research goals of the DAP through the implementation of a mid-level research design governing the collection and analysis of data from “artifacts which were manufactured by reductive, or subtractive techniques” (Phagan 1986a:79). Independent datasets for each of the four preliminary analysis systems reflect the technological distinctions made between flaked lithic tools (FLT10a and FLT10b); the debitage created in...

The RTG was headed by Roger A. Moore between 1978 and 1979; Carl J. Phagan assumed this position from 1979 to 1985, with the assistance of T. Homer Hruby between 1980 and 1984. Supporting...

The sediments dataset is a catalog of the geological samples used in a study of the physical and chemical properties of local soils. The chemical and granulometric analyses conducted on these samples contributed to an evaluation of potential for successful dry-land agriculture in the Dolores Valley. Soils in the project area are generally derived from eolian parent material and exhibit a loamy texture that indicates their suitability for agricultural production (Decker and Petersen 1987)....

The 1988 Arizona State University Archaeological Field School under the direction of Dr. Keith Kintiqh was held at the privately-owned Hinkson ranch just southwest of the Zuni Indian Reservation. The Hinkson ranch holds qreat research potential because of a dense prehistoric occupation (primarily Pueblo II & III) that has been relatively undisturbed by pothuntinq or other destructive processes. If the great house and great kiva of the Hinkson Complex were built and occupied after the collapse...

The linked provenience category is an organized way to describe how a feature was excavated, and where artifacts were found within that feature. The categories are numerically based in order to systematically define excavation strategy and the execution of that strategy. Each vertical and horizontal strategy is denoted with a corresponding number---for example horizontal excavation strategies are broken down into whole study unit, locus, segment, half, strip, quadrant, etc. (Wilshusen et al....

The Lower Zuni River Archaeological District is located approximately 39 km (24 miles) northeast of St. Johns, Arizona where the Zuni River crosses the Arizona-New Mexico state line (Figures 1 and 2). Within this district are 89 archaeological sites that represent extensive prehistoric occupation of the area between about A.D. 800 and A.D. 1175, and historic use and occupation dating from the 1880s. A wide range of prehistoric site types are represented. Several ceramic and lithic...

The DAP research design was structured to systematically address broad domains of inquiry that encompass economy and adaptation, paleodemography, social organization, extra-regional relationships, and cultural process. The variables used in the botanical datasets represent the various lines of evidence needed to mitigate “bioturbation, preservation, and sampling biases” and establish the “case for cultural association of botanical remains preserved in the archaeological record” (Petersen, Clay...

A small percentage of the maps reproduced from field data can be found in the series of published DAP reports, but a much larger collection of original material can be accessed via the Anasazi Heritage Center, Colorado. The maps dataset allows users to easily know what maps are available for any provenience. Maps were sequentially numbered within each site and later classified as one of 47 taxa, according to the type of information the map was meant to convey. Documenting the contents of a site...

Archaeology is faced with the inherent problem of managing legacy datasets. Often these datasets are in a state of disrepair, thus rendering them almost useless and difficult to properly archive or to integrate into the current archaeological dialogue. Unfortunately, this is a common issue and there is not much literature on the subject. To address this dilemma, an examination of the condition of the paper documents of a legacy dataset is needed. In this research, I will review the preservation...

The Area II survey conducted by SWCA resulted in the documentation of 50 archaeological sites and 78 isolated finds. Sixteen of the archaeological sites were newly discovered, and of the 44 previously documented sites, 33 were found and reinvestigated. The archaeological sites included 15 prehistoric/ethnographic sites associated with Native Americans, 32 historic sites potentially associated with Euro‐Americans, and 3 multi‐component sites with prehistoric/ethnohistoric and historic components....

The nature of the Southwestern Archaic record, reflecting several thousand years of occupation by small mobile foraging groups, provides a crucial methodological and a conceptual dilemma for archaeologists working in the area. At the heart of this dilemma is the relationship between this kind of archaeological record and the concept of the archaeological site, which is central to contemporary thinking. As broadly defined, an archaeological site may be "any place of any size where there are found...
