Phoenix Basin Archaeology: the Intersections Project
Part of: Digital Archive of Huhugam Archaeology (DAHA) , Arizona Department of Transportation
The Intersections Project created an electronic collection of archaeological monographs and synthetic reports written for archaeological projects conducted during the 1980s and 1990s at Hohokam sites on Canal System Two. These investigations were funded by the Federal and Arizona Departments of Transportation. The searchable electronic collection includes the contents of about 37 separate volumes reporting on the findings of 11 different archaeological projects. The electronic publication was made available on a set of Compact Discs. Subsequently the digital files were added to tDAR as a project and collection for wider distribution and long-term preservation.
The Intersections Project was funded by the Federal Highway Administration through the Arizona Department of Transportation and the Maricopa Association of Governments as part of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA). The project begun in the early spring of 1997 and was completed in 2002; final CDROMs were mastered in 2003. Brenda L. Shears and Glen E. Rice of Arizona State University were the project co-directors and principal investigators, and Mark Danelowitz of the Arizona Department of Transportation administered the project.
