Archaeological Investigations at AZ EE:1:141 (ASM), Rancho Sahuarita, Town of Sahuarita, Arizona
Author(s): S. Jerome Hesse
Year: 2004
Summary
Archaeological investigations were conducted at AZ EE: 1:141 (ASM) (Site 141), one of several Hohokam sites in and near the Rancho Sahuarita Block Plat, in January 2003. The site was a Rincon phase habitation site with pit houses, mortuary, extramural storage, and other remains. A total of 16 features were identified. Located just east of the Santa Cruz River floodplain, the site was probably a farmstead, which was part of a larger, dispersed settlement.
The testing and data recovery operations were conducted in accordance with the Rancho Sahuarita Specific Plan, the Archaeological Research Guidelines - Rancho Sahuarita Block Plat (ARG) (WestLand Resources and SWCA 1998). Repatriation of human remains and funerary items was carried out in accordance with an existing burial agreement between Sharpe and Associates and the Tohono O’odham Nation (A.R.S. 41-865, Case No. 96-30).
