TITLE An Archaeological Survey of Approximately 4,000 Acres Located Near the Bisti Badlands South of Farmington, New Mexico. Public Service Company of New Mexico, Archaeological Report No. 2,

Albuquerque.



This corridor project encompassed 4,000 acres in San Juan County. The project area was situated in the Navajo section of the Colorado Plateau Province and consisted primarily of badland-mesa landforms. Vegetation present in the study area included cool desertshrub and grasslands.

The survey consisted of a 100% sample in which 30m or less crew spacing formed the basis for data collection. A total of 72 sites and no isolated occurrences were recorded during this project.

Of the total number of recorded sites, 13 were lithic scatter sites, 25 were lithic scatters with surface hearth sites, and 25 contain lithic/groundstone/fire-cracked rock scatters.

Seventeen historic sites were recorded in the study area, all Navajo, most predate 1900. Six were classified as habitation sites and contain wood/masonry hogans, sweathouses and, less often, corrals. Temporary camps consisting of tent pads, ramadas, and corrals comprise the remainder of the historic sites.

The estimated ages of sites in these groups were based on typological cross-dating, specifically projectile points and ceramics from each site. This project was notable for an absence of Anasazi sites; a pattern attributed to soil unsuited for agriculture. Of these sites, one was assigned to the late phase of the Archaic Period and two were assigned to the Pueblo IV phase of the Pueblo Period. Two sites contained multiple components (Archaic and Puebloan).

Artifact data were based on in-field analyses of assemblages. Counts per site rwerely exceed 40 artifacts. Lithic analyses focused primarily on debitage assemblages. Stylistic analyses were restricted to projectile points. Sites contained points classified as San Jose, Basketmaker II, Basketmaker III, and Bajada.

Ceramic analyses focused on stylistic analyses of assemblages. Ceramic assemblages contained Burnham B/w, Lino Gray and Corrugated wares. Historic (Navajo) artifacts included purple glass.

The report contained preliminary analyses of artifact assemb-lages between sites found during the project.

This project focused on excavations at 21 sites in Sandoval County. Most of the sites were situated in ridge and valley land-forms. Elevations varied between 8,300 and 9,500 feet. Vegetation in the study area included mixed conifers.

Excavations ranged from less than 1% to 2.6% samples of each site. Artifact recovery was based on screen sizes of 1/4 and 1/8in. and arbitrary levels were used in all excavations.

Of the total number of excavated prehistoric sites, all were lithic/groundstone scatter sites. Most were late Archaic Period or undated. No historic sites were excavated.

Artifact data were based on laboratory analyses of assem-blages. Sample sizes range from 5 - 1000 artifacts per site. Lithic analyses focused primarily on debitage assemblages. Stylistic analyses of lithics focused on projectile points. Among the types noted were Chiricahua, Basketmaker II, and Basketmaker III.

Specialized studies include obsidian hydration dating, pollen, and floral analyses. Obsidian hydration was used to calibrate occupational intensity in the study area. Sourcing studies show the Jemez source to have been used by occupants of the study area. Pollen studies of near-site areas provide modern spectra data only. Dated bog samples extending from 4595 + 105 BP--1830 + 170 BP shows decreasing Pinus and increasing Betula over this interval. Floral results from three sites recovered only Chenoeodium and Polygonum.

Of these sites, two were assigned to the PaleoIndian Period, three were assigned to the Archaic Period, one was assigned to the Pueblo I Period, five were assigned to the Pueblo I/Pueblo II Period, one was assigned to the Pueblo II Period, three were assigned to the Pueblo II/Pueblo III Period, and one was assigned to the Pueblo IV/Pueblo V Period. Two sites contained multiple components (Archaic and Pueblo).

Artifact data were based on in-field analyses of assemblages. Stylistic analyses were restricted to projectile points. Sites contained points classified as corner-notched, Folsom, and late Archaic.

Ceramic analyses focused on stylistic analyses of assemblages. Ceramic assemblages contained Socorro B/w, Wingate B/r, red, gray, Reserve B/w, Tularosa B/w, Los Lunas Smudged, brownware, Clapboard Neckbanded, Red Mesa B/w, Glaze, Jeddito B/o, Kiatuthlana B/w, Alma Incised, Puerco B/r, and Pilweres Banded wares.

TITLE Report of Surface Collection and Testing at 18 sites Near Abiquiu Reservoir, Northern New Mexico. Mariah Associates, Inc., Albuquerque.



This project focused on excavations at 18 sites in Rio Arriba County. Most of the sites were situated in canyon and terrace landforms. Elevations varied between 6,200 and 6,400 feet. Vegetation in the study area included pinyon-juniper woodlands and grasslands.

Excavation samples were difficult to determine, but probably did not exceed 1% of each site. Graded 1/4in. and 1/8in. mesh screens and arbitrary 10cm levels formed the basis for data collection. Surface collections preceded excavations at all sites.

Of the total number of excavated prehistoric sites, all were lithic scatter sites. Four sites contained masonry structures. No historic sites were excavated. All sites contained multiple components (ranging from Archaic to historic).

Artifact data were based on laboratory analyses of assem-blages. Sample sizes range from 200 - 9000 artifacts per site. Lithic analyses focused primarily on debitage assemblages. Detailed raw material studies were included in the report. Stylistic analyses of lithics focused on projectile points. Among the types noted were En Medio, San Pedro, Lamy/Llaves, San Jose, Thoms #27, Thoms #26, Thoms #14, Thoms #35, and Abiquiu Ewered.

Ceramic analyses focused on stylistic analyses of assemblages. Ceramic assemblages contained Powhoge Polychrome, Kwahe'e B/w, Peñasco Micaceous, Valdito, Ocate, Tewa Polished, Santa Fe B/w, and Pueblo II-Pueblo III Corrugated.

Historic artifacts noted in the report include a glass bead and a brass thimble.

Specialized studies include obsidian hydration dating and sourcing, radiocarbon dating, and pollen analyses. Most obsidian was from the Polvadera source. Dates indicate very late ages of purported Oshara projectile points. Radiocarbon and obsidian dates were obtained at LA 51698. Pollen studies proved negative.

The report is primarily descriptive in nature and contained no statistical analyses of artifact assemblages.

This mixed (corridor and block) project encompassed 320.3 acres in McKinley County. The project area consisted primarily of talus slope, hill, ridge and plain landforms. Elevations varied between 7,000 and 7,300 feet. Vegetation present in the study area included pinyon-juniper woodlands.

The survey consisted of a 100% sample in which 10-15m crew spacing formed the basis for data collection. A total of 95 sites and 22 isolated occurrences were recorded during this project.

Of the total number of recorded prehistoric sites, 25 were structure/midden sites, eight were structure/pit structure depression/midden sites, six were midden sites, six were structure sites, six were shrd/lithic scatter sites, two were structure/pit structure depression/Great Kiva sites, two were sherd scatter sites, one was a pit structure depression/midden site, one was a structure/pit structure depression site, and one was a pit structure depression/Great Kiva site. Several historic sites were recorded in the study area. They all appear to date to the early to mid 20th century and were Native American. These included sweatlodges, probable camps, squaw dance grounds, abandoned homes and clusters of burned rock.

The estimated ages of sites in these groups were based on typological cross-dating, specifically projectile points and deco-rated ceramics. Of these sites, 77% were assigned to the Anasazi Period, 15% were assigned to the Navajo Period and 7% of the sites contain both Anasazi and Navajo elements. One sites was of unknown age.

Artifact data were based on in-field analyses of assemblages. Lithic analyses focused primarily on debitage assemblages.

Ceramic analyses focused on stylistic analyses of assemblages. Ceramic assemblages contained Kiatuthlana B/w, Red Mesa B/w, Gallup B/w, Escavada B/w, Chaco B/w, Gallup/Chaco B/w, Puerco B/r, Wingate B/r, plain gray, neck banded gray and corrugated gray wares.

TITLE Archaeological Investigations in the Jemez Mountains, New Mexico. Santa Fe National Forest, Jemez Ranger District, Cultural Resources Document No. 5, Santa Fe.



This project focused on excavations at four sites in Sandoval County. Most of the sites were situated in hill, slope, and canyon landforms. Elevations varied between 7,120 and 8,200 feet. Vegetation in the study area included ponderosa pine, juniper, aspen, and spruce.

Excavation methods differed for the four sites. One site was excavated using a 1 x 1m grid system installed over the entire site. The grid units were used as the basis for excavation. Another site employed the use of 50 x 50cm test pits in the north corner of each room. Still another site excavated all room fill for a single unit due to the appwerent lack of natural stratigraphy. The historic site was excavated through test pits. Artifact recovery was based on screen sizes of 1/4 in. and natural strata levels were used in most of the excavations.

Of the total number of excavated prehistoric sites, three were fieldhouse sites. The sites date to the A.D. 1300-1650 period. One historic site was excavated. It was a historic log cabin dating to the 1920-1950 period.

Artifact data were based on laboratory analyses of assem-blages. Sample sizes range from 15 - 391 artifacts per site. Lithic analyses focused primarily on debitage assemblages.

Ceramic analyses focused on stylistic analyses of assemblages. Ceramic assemblages contained Jemez B/w and Peñasco Micaceous. Historic artifacts noted in the report include nails, window glass, stove pipe fragments, cans, glass, and leather fragments.

Specialized studies include pollen, radiocarbon, and obsidian hydration analyses. The obsidian hydration sample dates to approxi-mately A.D. 1578. Pollen studies found Zea and Cleome pollen. The one C14 sample produced dates of approximately A.D. 890 + 210.

This project summarizes test excavations at 12 sites in Bernalillo County. The project area consisted primarily of valley margin landforms. Elevations varied between 5,340 and 5,376 feet. Vegetation present in the study area included mixed grasslands, saltbush, and yucca.

The test excavation samples average less than 5% of each sites. In most cases, large surface collections were made at each site. Data recovery is based on unspecified screen sizes and arbitrary levels were used in all excavations. All testing was judgemental.

Of the total number of tested prehistoric sites, nine were sherd and lithic scatter sites, two were jacal/pithouse village sites, and one was a lithic scatter site. No historic sites were recorded in the study area.

The estimated ages of sites in these groups were based on typological cross-dating, specifically projectile points and deco-rated ceramics. In addition, C14 dates were run from four sites; 1620 + 70 BP (LA 60834), 1300 + 70 and 1200 + 50 BP (LA 60838), 2040 + 100 BP (LA 60839), and 1230 + 60 BP (LA 60840). Flotation of seven one-liter samples from five sites resulted in the identi-fication of juniper, corn, goosefoot, purslane, Opuntia, and grass seeds from various contexts.

Artifact data were based on laboratory analyses of assem-blages. Lithic analyses focused primarily on raw material and technological analyses of debitage assemblages. Assemblages average 94 items per site. Stylistic analyses were restricted to projectile points. Sites contained points classified as En Medio, San Pedro, and Anasazi.

Ceramic analyses focused on stylistic/technological analyses of assemblages. Ceramic assemblages contained Corrales Red, San Marcial B/w, Kiatuthlana-Red Mesa B/w, Lino Smudged, Lino Gray, Lino Fugitive Red, and Kana'a Gray wares. An average of 82 sherds per site was found.

Many sites contained multiple components.

Artifact data were based on in-field analyses of assemblages. Sample sizes average 19 artifacts per site. Lithic analyses focused primarily on debitage assemblages. Stylistic analyses were restricted to projectile points (n=198). Sites contained points classified as Jay and Bajada.

Ceramic analyses focused on stylistic/petrographic analyses of assemblages. Ceramic assemblages contained El Paso Brown, Glaze A Red, Chupadero B/w, Mimbres B/w, Mimbres Corrugated, Playas Red Incised, St.John's Polychrome, Lincoln B/r, El Paso Polychrome, Seco Corrugated, and Three Rivers R/t wares. Petrographic analyses of Mimbres B/w sherds (n=13) indicates that they were of non-local origin.

The report contained detailed tabular summaries of artifact assemblages from sites found during the project. Estimates of site density by environmental zones were presented.

Radiocarbon dates from 10 sites were: 80 + 60 BP, 240 + 50 BP, 560 + 90 BP, 170 + 100 BP, 470 + 50 BP, 680 + 90 BP, 5870 + 120 BP, 290 + 70 BP, 4070 + 170 BP, and 540 + 100 BP. Thirty-three obsidian dates from 20 sites were also presented. Overlapping C14 and OH dates from six sites were not in close agreement. Most obsidian derives from Obsidian Ridge, with East Grants Ridge, and Mule Creek in lesser quantities.

TITLE The Prehistory of the Carlsbad Basin, Southeastern New Mexico: Technical Report of Prehistoric Archaeological Investigations in the Brantley Project Locality. Incarnate Word College, San Antonio, TX.



This project focused on survey and excavations at 43 sites in Eddy County. Most of the sites were situated in floodplain and bluff landforms. Elevations varied between 3,250 and 3,500 feet. Vegetation in the study area included riparian associations.

Excavations were less than 1% to 2% samples of each site. Artifact recovery was based on unspecified screen sizes and arbitrary 10cm levels were used in most excavations. Excavations were feature oriented.

Of the total number of excavated prehistoric sites, 18 were burned rock rings/scatter sites, 13 were lithic scatter sites, seven were stone circle/tipi ring sites, and one was a rockshelter site. No historic sites were excavated (see prior citation).

Artifact data were based on laboratory analyses of assemblages. Sample sizes range from 1 - 575 artifacts per site. Lithic analyses focused primarily on debitage assemblages. Stylistic analyses of lithics focused on projectile points. Among the types noted were PaleoIndian, Darl, Pecos Contracting, Pecos Rectanglar, Pecos Indented, Scallorn, San Pedro, Livermore, Fresno, Harrell, Washita, Toyah, Marcos, Leslie 3-D, Historic Metal, Leslie 1-D, and Palmillas.

Ceramic analyses focused on stylistic analyses of assemblages. Ceramic assemblages contained El Paso Brown, El Paso Polychrome, Jornada Brown, Chupadero B/w, South Pecos Brown, Three Rivers R/t, Lincoln B/r, Gila Polychrome, Seco Corrugated, and Corona Corrugated.

Specialized studies include radiocarbon dating, thermolumin-escent dating, faunal, pollen, and floral analyses. Radiocarbon dated from burned rock middens (n=38) ranged from A.D. 220-1500. Thermoluminescent dates proved unproductive. A local phase sequence is developed using these data. Faunal studies show domesticated cattle and goats to be most common, and freshwater mollusks may have been used. Pollen and floral studies show grasslands and Composites to have been frequent.

The report is primarily descriptive in nature and contained tabular summaries and statistical analyses of artifact assemblages.

This sample quadrat project encompassed 9,940 acres in Curry and Roosevelt Counties. The project area consisted primarily of plains and playa landforms. Elevations varied between 4,100-4,700 feet. Vegetation in the study area included short-grass prairie.

The survey consisted of a 12.3% sample in which 160 acre parcels and 20m crew spacing formed the basis for data collection. A total of 53 sites and 77 isolated occurrences were recorded during this project. Limited testing was conducted at eight sites. Of the total number of recorded sites, 31 were lithic/groundstone scatter sites, seven were lithic scatter sites, and three were sherd/lithic/fire-cracked rock scatter sites.

Thirteen historic sites were recorded in the study area. Of these, all were Anglo sites. The majority were ranch/homestead complexes with trash dumps, with smaller numbers of corrals. Most date between 1900-1950.

The estimated ages of sites in these groups were based on typological cross-dating, e.g., projectile points and ceramics from each site. Of these sites, one was assigned to the PaleoIndian Period, nine were assigned to the Archaic Period, and three were assigned to the early-middle Ceramic Period. Six sites contained multiple components.

Artifact data were based on in-field and laboratory analyses of assemblages. Lithic analyses focused primarily on debitage assemblages. Stylistic analyses was restricted to pro-jectile points. Sites contained points classified as Ensor, Copley-Yarborough, Ellis, Plainview, Sequoyah-Haskell, Leslie's Type II Biface, Leslie's Type 3-A, Leslie's Type 9, Leslie's Type 2-B, Fresno, Bonham-Alba Series, Folsom, Bajada, Bassett/P78, Uvalde/San Jose, and Marshall/Salt Creek. Ceramic analyses focused on stylistic/petrographic analyses of assemblages. Ceramic assem-blages contained Chupadero B/w, El Paso Brownware, corrugated and micaceous wares.

Radiocarbon, obsidian hydration, and thermoluminescent dating was conducted at four sites. Matched sample dates from two sites indicate little overlap between C14 and TL dating. Obsidian chemical studies showed use of the Jemez Mountain source. Petro-graphic analyses indicated non-local manufacture of corrugated and redware ceramics. Flotation analyses were not productive.

The report contained detailed tabular summaries of artifact classes by site and some statistical analyses of site types by enviromental zones. Little spatial patterning was discerned and adaptations in the regions were thought to be highly mobile.

This project focused on excavations at one site in Santa Fe County. The site is situated in floodplain landforms. The elevation is not specified. Vegetation in the study area included pinyon-juniper woodlands.

Excavations samples and artifact recovery methods could not be determined. Excavations were structure oriented.

Of the total number of excavated prehistoric features, 198 were surface rooms, nine were kivas, and seven were pit structures, (10) were ramadas, (5) were borrow pits, and (9) were burial pits. The site was occupied from A.D. 1275-1550. One historic 18th century house site was excavated.

Artifact data were based on laboratory analyses of assemblages. Sample size was 4,735 artifacts from the site. Lithic analyses focused primarily on debitage assemblages. Detailed raw material studies were included in the report. Stylistic analyses of lithics focused on projectile points. Among the types noted were side-notched and corner-notched. Ceramic assemblages contained Abiquiu B/g, Agua Fria G/r, San Clemente Glaze Polychrome, Cieneguilla G/y, Clapboard Corrugated, Blind Indented Corrugated, Bandelier B/g, Largo G/y, Wiyo B/g, Espinoso G-P, San Lazaro Glaze Polychrome, Kwahe'e B/w, Plain Utiltiy, Santa Fe B/w, Sanchez G/r, Puaray Glaze Polychrome, Jeddito B/y, Socorro B/w, Historic Polychrome, Galisteo B/w, Tumacacori Polychrome, San Elizario Polychrome, Huejotzingo Bl/w, San Luis Bl/w, Fig Springs Polychrome, Abajo Polychrome, Puaray Polychrome, Puebla Bl/w, Aranama Polychrome, and Huejotzingo Banded.

TITLE The Naschitti-North Project: The Excavation of Two Small Pueblo II Sites Near Sheep Springs, San Juan County, New Mexico. Museum of New Mexico, Laboratory of Anthropology, Note No. 143, Santa Fe.



This project focused on excavations at two sites in San Juan County. Most of the sites were situated in mesa and ridge land-forms, with an elevation of 5,800 feet. Vegetation in the study area included grasslands (galleta, Indian ricegrass, alkalai sacaton, shadscale, and snakeweed).

Excavation samples could not be determined from the report. Artifact recovery was based on screen sizes of 1/4in. Excavations were feature oriented.

Of the total number of excavated prehistoric sites, one was a fieldhouse/windbreak site and one was a semi-subterranean structure with numerous associated features (e.g., hearth, storage pit, roasting pit). The site dates to the A.D. 775-975 period. Artifact data were based on laboratory analyses of assemblages. Lithic analyses focused primarily on debitage assemblages. Stylistic analyses of lithics focused on projectile points. Among the types noted were side-notched points.

Ceramic analyses focused on stylistic analyses of assemblages. Ceramic assemblages contained Tunicha B/w, Newcomb B/w, Lino Gray, Tocito Gray, Captain Tom Corrugated, Captain Tom/Blue Shale, Blue Shale Corrugated, Hunter Corrugated, Red Mesa B/w, Ashiwi Poly-chrome, and Burnham B/w.
