During May 1994, Geo-Marine, Inc., personnel conducted an archaeological survey of approximately 198 acres of land in the southwestern comer of Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico. The land is the proposed site for development by Holloman Air Force Base (AFB) for use as a training area for security personnel. The intensive archaeological survey conducted on the proposed location resulted in documenting one previously unknown prehistoric site (HAR-083/LA 104885) and two isolated manifestations.

The project area consists of approximately 530 acres of land located in Otero County on Holloman Air Force Base. Three historical sites (HAR-082, HAR-084 and HAR-085) were identified during the course of this survey. Two of these were newly recorded (HAR-084 and HAR-085) and one was partially recorded on a previous survey (HAR-082). In addition, 15 isolated occurrences were recorded.

The three newly recorded sites are prehistoric in nature, and consist of low density scatters of chipped stone, ground stone, and fire-cracked rock fragments. LA 110414 contained a single projectile point fragment which suggests a Late Archaic/early Formative affiliation. The remaining two sites are temporally and culturally unknown. Compared to similar previously recorded prehistoric sites in the general region, these sites appear to represent short-term, logistical resource procurement and...

The document presents data for National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) eligibility of up to 20 archaeological sites on Department of Defense land at Holloman Air Force Base. A total of 22 sites were examined for NRHP eligibility. Based on the results of the evaluations, three sites are recommended eligible to the NRHP, LA 108090 (historic), - 108091 (prehistoric) and -108092 (prehistoric). The remaining sites lacked subsurface cultural deposits, a diverse assemblage, datable materials, or...

During the spring of 2000, archaeologists with Lone Mountain Archaeological Services, Inc., conducted testing and salvage excavations at 14 archaeological sites administered by Holloman Air Force Base through a contract with Fort Bliss. Investigations in the well field demonstrated that many of the sites there have been reduced by erosion. Most of the artifact assemblages have been exposed and in many cases, displaced by water action.

The goal of the survey was to locate an area where the proposed range would have minimum or no impact upon historic resources in the area. An area approximately 8.5 sq. km. was surveyed, and 105 prehistoric archaeological sites were recorded. After reviewing the data and consulting with the Army Corps of Engineers and the Air Force, a portion of the surveyed area was selected for more intensive investigation.

This survey was conducted on behalf of Holloman Air Force Base (AFB), which is proposing to replace and upgrade the existing underground pipeline servicing Boles Wells. Boles Wells field is detached property belonging to Holloman AFB. While several lithic and ceramic isolated finds were observed, the survey indicated that the project area is too...

Burke & Associates propose three areas for drainage disposal and for acquiring construction material (gravel, etc.) near the Primate Research Facility on Holloman Air Base, Otero County, New Mexico. The survey yielded one isolated occurrence of prehistoric lithic debitage. The research potential of the isolated occurrence was exhausted by field analysis and recordation. Use of the area for drainage disposal and procurement of material will have no effect on significant artifacts or features,...

Report and SHPO correspondence for an archaeological survey of an area proposed for use in the storage of construction refuse.

This report presents the results of a cultural resources survey of approximately 220 miles of the proposed right-of-way for a buried fiber optics cable on White Sands Missile Range in southern New Mexico. As a result of the current project, 15 new archaeological sites and 74 isolated artifacts were located and documented along the planned installation route. Twelve previously recorded archaeological sites were relocated in the right-of-way corridor. These 27 total sites were inspected to assess...

The purpose of this survey was to locate and assess the cultural resources in this zone. The survey zone was the Ten Thousand Foot Slope Range and the associated access road in the Rhodes Canyon Area. Ten isolated manifestations and one site, WS-246, were located on the Ten Thousand Foot Slope Range and access road . However, none of these resources are considered significant and PCA recommends clearance for the proposed construction.

This report summarizes the results of a survey of a proposed water pipeline replacement project for Holloman Air Force Base in Alamogordo, NM. One previously recorded site—LA114582—was relocated and three new sites— LA132130, LA132131, and LA132132—were found. All of these sites are potentially eligible for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion d of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (1966).

On December 12 and 13, 1992 Robert K. Alexander, for the Office of Contract Archeology, University of New Mexico, conducted an archeological clearance survey of a tract of land on the Holloman Air Force Base. The 850 foot (259 m.) by 400 foot (122 m.) tract is to be used for a rescue helicopter facility and is adjacent to a taxiway near the present control tower. No cultural resources were found, and project clearance is recommended.

Sixty acres of the inventoried lands are administered by Holloman Air Force Base and the remaining ca. 840 acres are administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The survey areas are being considered for the location of a proposed wastewater treatment plant and associated disposal facilities. The intensive archeological survey resulted in the recording of three sites (LA 99444, LA 99445, LA 99446) of the prehistoric period and twenty isolated manifestations.

This report presents the results of an archeological survey of two discrete areas totaling approximately 250 acres of land adjacent to the southwestern boundary of Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico. This survey represents the last of several isolated efforts to conduct an archeological inventory of the entire area which may be impacted by the development of the wastewater treatment facility. The survey of the limited areas surrounding Lake Holloman and a borrow pit revealed no evidence of...

Ecological Communications Corporation (EComm) conducted a Class III inventory for three proposed alignment alternatives for reconstruction of the Prather Waterline, a pipeline that presently serves Holloman Air Force Base (HAFB) as part of the jointly operated City of Alamogordo-HAFB Bonito Water System. The archeological survey documented five previously recorded sites, three newly recorded sites, eight isolated occurrences, and two roadside memorials (descansos).

The sites are located along the High Speed Test Track, a 10 mile (16 km) long, fixed rail structure located in the northern portion of the installation. Planned modifications and upgrades to the existing facility’s structure may negatively impact the prehistoric cultural resources. As the significance and research potential of the sites had not yet been determined, investigations were conducted to determine if the sites had the potential to be nominated to the National Register of Historic...

The present report fulfills the stipulations of the COE contract, and presents the results of (a) interpretive analyses of the lithic assemblage from LA 67591, a probable late Archaic hunting site, and (b) ethnobotanical analyses of organic materials from LA 75258, a burned pit structure formerly designated IO 48.
