Pottery and Artifact Provenience Data from Sites in the Painted Rock Reservoir, Western Arizona

Author(s): Alfred E. Johnson; William W. Wasley

Year: 1961

Summary

Through contracts with the National Parks Service, archaeological salvage operations were conducted by the Arizona State Museum in the area of the Painted Rocks Reservoir, western Arizona. Three separate field projects were accomplished during a period extending from 1958 to 1961. The following tables are supplement to published reports for this project and contain basic data on the provenience of sherds and artifacts recovered during the excavations. All of the major sites are represented, and provenience data are given for each distinguishable feature and for each excavation unit.

The Archives of Archaeology Series is a 29-volume set jointly published by the University of Wisconsin Press and the Society for American Archaeology on opaque microcards, a now obsolete format. The Mississippi Valley Archaeology Center at the University of Wisconsin—La Crosse has digitized the original opaque microcards and made the digital copies available through tDAR. More information on the process of digitizing the series can be found in Joseph Tiffany’s 2012 article entitled "Digitizing the Archives of Archaeology Series" in the SAA Archaeological Record (http://onlinedigeditions.com/publication/?i=113770).
