In October 1997, Brockington and Associates Inc. conducted National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) evaluations of three archaeological sites (1MT93, 1MT200, 1MT279) on Maxwell Air Force Base (AFB) and one archaeological site (1EE458) on the Vigilant Warrior Training Area. Although 1MT93, 1MT200, and 1MT279 are located on the Maxwell AFB east golf course, potentially intact deposits were noted at these sites during previous investigations. Site 1EE458 was originally identified by McMackin et...

The goals of this project were to develop a more tightly controlled chronology for beach ridge formation, assess the stratigraphic chronology of a small pond on the 'nose of Cape Canaveral, obtain finer resolution of the known chronology of identified archaeological sites, refine depositional processes in some of the known sites, and attempt an environmental reconstruction based on palynological analysis of the sandy cape sediments. The authors analysis concludes that there are no intact...

Papago Park in the City of Tempe extends from Tempe Butte northward across the Salt River bed into the southern portion of the Papago hills. The archaeological sites in the park are relatively small, but they represent both the Indian and Anglo occupation of the Salt River Valley, and span more than one thousand years of history (A.D. 800 to late 1800s and early 1900s). Excavations at two of the sites have produced artifacts dating to a) the prehistoric Indian period, b) the early historic...

Site LA 80924, located in northwestern New Mexico, yielded two samples for pollen analysis. A sample from the floor of a Navajo bell-shaped pit (F. 13) and from a profile of sediments comprising the Archaic component of the site were examined for pollen. In addition, a modern ground surface sample was analyzed for comparability.

This set of images documents common ceramics types found at La Venta, Tabasco. The examples here were recovered from San Andrés (Barí 1), a subsidiary elite community in the Lower La Venta area of the flood plain. The ceramics at San Andrés demonstrate a range of states from refired and eroded to well-preserved. The type images presented here are of generally well-preserved examples. These types are defined in my dissertation (von Nagy 2003), and will receive full treatment in a forth coming...
