North Area, Tularosa Peak, and Boles Wells Cultural Resources Survey, Holloman Air Force Base, Otero County, New Mexico

Part of the Holloman Air Force Base Resources project

Year: 1995

Summary

A total of 7,284 acres was included in this inventory, including HAFB properties on the North Area, and Tularosa Peak on the Main Base, and Boles Wells Water System Annex. A total of 34 previously unrecorded archaeological sites was documented. Twenty-five of the newly discovered properties are attributable to prehistoric activities. Three of the previously unrecorded sites relate to premilitary historic period activities and six represent military activities potentially predating 1950. Five previously recorded sites were reassessed and updated. Four additional previously recorded sites were revisited. Original documentation of these sites was considered to adequately reflect attributes of these properties and no modification to existing records was conducted. Twenty-eight of the 34 sites recorded during this survey are recommended potentially eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Six military sites are considered ineligible for inclusion in the NRHP.
