A Preliminary Report of Archaeological Sites Found Along the All American Pipeline Right-of-Way Between Oracle, Arizona and a Point 145 Miles to the West

Author(s): David G. Batcho

Year: 1985

Summary

Between March 5th and April 20th, 1985, archaeologists from the Cultural Resources Management Division of New Mexico State University (NMSU) conducted an archaeological clearance survey of all lands along the proposed right-of-way of the All American Pipeline Project (AAPL) between Highway 77 near Oracle, Arizona to a point 145 miles to the west. The survey was directed by David G. Batcho; Judy Brunson was field supervisor. Field crew size varied between 4 and 8 persons. This survey was carried out under BLM Cultural Resource Use Permit number A-20624, and Arizona State Antiquities permit number 85-27.

The following report is very preliminary and serves as an interim report concerning the cultural resources discovered in the first 145 mile "spread" of the AAPL project in Arizona. This report contains an inventory of the resources found, a brief description of them, and their recommended treatment. No in-depth analysis of the cultural material found has been done nor have these sites been considered within any broader geographical context. A more thoroughly descriptive and analytical account of these sites will be presented in the report to be prepared upon the completion of the AAPL survey in Arizona, in accordance with the recently signed Memorandum of Agreement between AAPL, BLM, and the SHPO’s of Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Texas.

This record contains a draft report.
