Final Report of Findings: Phase 1 Data Recovery at AZ T:7:366(ASM) for the Northern Parkway Project, Near El Mirage, Maricopa County, Arizona

Author(s): Glennda Gene Luhnow

Year: 2013

Summary

Maricopa County Department of Transportation (MCDOT) plans to improve Northern Avenue to be a parkway in the Phoenix metropolitan area where no freeways are planned. At the request of Mr. Robin Shishido of Parsons, a cultural resource assessment of the project area of potential effects (APE) was conducted by Archaeological Consulting Services, Ltd. (ACS). The purpose of the cultural resource assessment was to identify any historic properties in the APE that could be affected by the undertaking (Schilling and Jones 2012). Two historic properties were identified (Schilling and Jones 2012). One property is a Hohokam artifact scatter contained entirely within the APE in relatively undeveloped desert. The site was originally identified by URS, and archaeological testing was recommended to determine the site’s eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) (Erickson et al. 2007). The diversity of surface artifacts observed during the ACS survey indicated that a recommendation of eligibility for the National Register under Criterion D for data potential was more appropriate for the site (Schilling and Jones 2012), and phased data recovery investigations were recommended. Data recovery investigations at the site were conducted between July 29-August 5, 2013 following heavy monsoon activity. During initial surface collection at the site, it was observed that the site boundary had significantly expanded based on the exposure of additional surface artifacts. The preliminary results of the data recovery investigations were previously reported on (Luhnow and Punzmann 2013). This report contains the final results of the investigations, including all specialized analyses.
