Archaeological Testing at the Eastern Margin of the Hodges Site
Author(s): Deborah L. Swartz
Year: 1995
Summary
The Flowing Wells Fire District is constructing a fire station and is planning to build an administration building. Archaeological testing was undertaken because the construction parcel lies within the boundaries of a known archaeological site, the Hodges site, AZ AA:12:18 (ASM), and prehistoric remains were uncovered dining preliminary construction activities.
Twenty-four archaeological features were recorded during the testing phase. They include 10 pithouses, 4 possible pithouses, 5 extramural pits, 2 trash concentrations, 2 secondary cremations, and 1 primary cremation. This report includes the project area location and description, archaeological background, project methods, feature descriptions, results, and recommendations.
