Archaeological Testing of the Tubac Schoolhouse Ramp Footers
Author(s): J. Homer Thiel
Year: 1995
Summary
The Tubac Presidio State Historic Park is renovating the southern addition to the 1885 Tubac Schoolhouse. As part of this renovation, the park is making the structure handicapped-accessible by installing a covered ramp along the east side of the structure. Excavation of holes for footers for the ramp had the potential of disturbing intact cultural resources. Therefore, the Arizona State Parks contracted with Desert Archaeology to conduct excavations to mitigate the impacts caused by the footers. Desert Archaeology personnel excavated four test units on May 10,1995. This report includes the project area location and description, project background, research questions, project methods, results of the test excavations, and recommendations.
