Summary

While the archaeological work at Pueblo La Plata has begun to provide critical

data concerning prehistoric demography, ceramic accumulations, and use of plants and animals, it was on the transect surveys that the collaboration between archaeological and ecological research came to fruition in the 2004 field season. This report discusses the data collection protocol that was developed to collect archaeological, small mammal, plant, and rock cover data on these transects, and presents preliminary findings concerning each of these data classes. Although we had intended to collect soils data, this was not accomplished during the spring 2004 field season.
