Classic Period Hohokam
Excavations in Pima-Coolidge Industrial Park, Southern Arizona
During the spring of 1968, salvage excavations were conducted by the Arizona State Museum in the Pima-Coolidge Industrial Park about three miles north of Coolidge, Arizona. Nine Classic period Hohokam rooms were cleared, as well as a portion of a Sacaton phase pit house. The project was supported in part by the National Park Service and in part by the Sacaton Agency of the Gila River Indian Reservation

Salvage Excavation in the Buttes Dam Site, Southern Arizona
During November and December, 1966, archaeological salvage excavation was conducted in the Buttes Dam Site by the Arizona State Museum under contract with the National Park Service. Excavated were six pit houses, a Casa Grande type of ball court, four trash mounds, 21 cremations, and several cooking pits. The architecture, ceramics, and the style of some of the stone artifacts indicate that this Hohokam village site was occupied during the late S…
Archaeological Excavations Near Bylas, Arizona
Under Contract No. 14-10-0333-995 with the National Park Service, the Arizona State Museum conducted excavations in two prehistoric ruins on the San Carlos Indian Reservation during April and May, 1963, as a part of the Inter-Agency Archeo-logical Salvage Program.A total of 88 surface rooms, 2 pit houses, and 4 cremations were excavated, and tests were made in 5 trash mounds and one sheet trash area. This project was accomplished with the aid of …
A Ceremonial Cave on Bonita Creek, Arizona
A prehistoric ceremonial cache in the Arizona State Museum was found in 1957 by S. R. Claridge of Safford, Arizona. In 1958 additional objects were collected on a subsequent visit to the cave. The ceremonial objects include wooden flowers and cones, strings of miniature baskets, terraced wooden objects, a wooden pendant, cotton cloth, and bows and arrows. Apparently most of these objects had been stored in a Maverick Mountain Polychrome jar which…

Salvage Archaeology on Highway 66 in Eastern Arizona
Between May 11 and June 10, 1959, the Arizona State Museum conducted salvage excavations along a section of U.S. Highway 66 from the Arizona-New Mexico state line westward through Lupton for about 5.8 miles. Work in 10 sites with heavy equipment and a large crew of Navajo laborers resulted in the excavation of 16 pit houses, 43 surface rooms, 7 kivas (two only partially excavated), 6 trash deposits, 18 burials, and 21 miscellaneous architectural …
Temporal Placement of Alma Neck Banded
Alma Neck Banded has long been considered to be a component of Mogollon 1 and Mogollon 2 horizons. Present evidence indicates, however, that this pottery type is a horizon marker for Mogollon 3 when it does not occur in the same context with Three Circle Neck Corrugated and Mangas Black-on-white of Mogollon 4. Apparently Alma Neck Banded first appeared in the southwestern United States between A.D. 600 and 700 and continued to be made until about…
A Hohokam Platform Mound at the Gatlin Site, Gila Bend, Arizona
The mound near Gila Bend, western Arizona, excavated between November, 1958, and February, 1959 for the National Park Service by the Arizona State Museum, was rebuilt, modified, and repaired through six major stages of construction. The platform mound in use at any given stage was flat-topped and slope-sided with rounded corners and an irregular squarish or subrectangular outline. The platforms were made of a caliche plaster, and the sides were f…
The Lehner Mammoth Site, Southeastern Arizona
In 1955-56 the Arizona State Museum excavated an elephant-kill site on the Lehner ranch in the San Pedro valley, near Hereford, Arizona, and found 13 projectiles, mainly Clovis fluted points, eight butchering tools, and charcoal from two fires among the remains of nine immature mammoths and elements of horse, bison, and tapir. Bones and artifacts occurred on and in gravels of a former perennial stream exposed in the modern arroyo bank. Most or al…
Ceramic Variety, Type Cluster, and Ceramic System in Southwestern Pottery Analysis
During the past 20 years, the number of named pottery types in the Southwest has increased at such a rate that it is now virtually impossible for an archaeologist to know and be familiar with more than a small percentage of them. Some of these types are totally new, but a surprisingly large number represent refinements in terminology or segregations from more inclusive categories, resulting from further study and increasingly complex technologica…

Highway Salvage Archaeology in Arizona
Two years ago the Arizona State Museum inauguarated a program of highway salvage archaeology in order to gather scientific information ,from prehistoric Indian ruins before they are destroyed by new highway construction. Highway salvage archaeology involves the inspection of new highway projects for archaeological features and undertaking any excavations indicated as necessary by these preliminary examinations
