    A General Historic Properties Treatment Plan for Archaeological Investigations Associated With FCC Cell Tower Construction Projects on Private Lands in Arizona Prepared for: Verizon Wireless Tempe, Arizona Prepared by: Terracon Consultants, Inc. Tempe, Arizona Terracon Project No. 65157582 August 2018 ABSTRACT Report Title: A General Historic Properties Treatment Plan for Archaeological Investigations Associated with FCC Cell Tower Construction Projects on Private Lands in Arizona Report Date: August 2018 Agencies: Federal Communications Commission, Arizona State Historic Preservation Office Project Sponsor: Verizon Wireless (Verizon) Project Description: Verizon constructs and collocates telecommunications facilities in Arizona. Due to the involvement of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the projects, they are considered federal undertakings subject to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The Arizona State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) reviews FCC-licensed undertakings pursuant to two nationwide programmatic agreements. Some of Verizon’s proposed undertakings may be found by the FCC and SHPO to have an adverse effect on historic properties listed in, or eligible for listing in, the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The purpose of this General Historic Properties Treatment Plan (General HPTP) is to streamline the resolution of adverse effects to historic properties listed in, or eligible for listing in, the NRHP by Verizon-sponsored undertakings on private lands in Arizona. This streamlined resolution will also include the preparation of a project-specific addendum to the General HPTP. The General HPTP does not apply to state, county, municipal, or Tribal lands including private lands within tribal reservation boundaries, or to lands under federal jurisdiction. i TABLE OF CONTENTS Section 1.

Earnest, B.A. Genevieve Dewey, B.A. Bureau of Applied Research in Anthropology The University of Arizona Tucson, Arizona 85721 With a Contribution by Henry F. Dobyns Revised July 12, 2000 Foreword This foreword clarifies some issues of interpretation that may arise during the reading of this report. First and foremost, this is a report of ideas that have been expressed by American Indian elders officially sent by their tribal governments to talk about places connected with the proposed Hoover Dam Bypass project. Second, this report provides ethnographic and ethnohistorical background, which serves to contextualize the statements of Indian people. This background analysis is designed to help the reader better understand the Indian statements by knowing that they have time- depth, ethnographic foundations, and historical documentation. Indian statements stand on their own authority, and the background analysis is not meant as a step toward validating these statements. The Hoover Dam Bypass project is in its the final stages of preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).

D. 1200-1900 Co-sponsored by The Center for Desert Archaeology and The University of Arizona Anthropology Department on OCTOBER 22-23, 2004 at the UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA, CENTER FOR ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE, BUILDING #24, ROOM 102 CONFERENCE SCHEDULE October 22nd, Friday afternoon: Southern Arizona and Southwest New Mexico 1:00-1:30 pm Introduction and opening remarks from John Olsen (Anthropology Department Chair, University of Arizona), Erin Davis (President, Arizona Archaeological Council), and William Doelle (President, Center for Desert Archaeology) 1:30-1:50 pm New Perspectives on the Protohistoric and Late Prehistoric Periods in the Southern Southwest (Deni Seymour, Research Archaeologist) Archaeological evidence identifies four distinct groups that occupied southern Arizona during the A.D. 1400 to 1670 period, during the transition from prehistoric Hohokam to the Contact period. These represent both Athabascan (Chiricahua Apache) and non-Athabascan groups (Transitional Hohokam-Pima, Sobaipuri, and Plains nomads). Radiocarbon and thermoluminesence dates pinpoint the span of these occupations, while unique structures, distinctive ceramics, and diagnostic flaked-stone assemblages differentiate these groups. The ancestral Chiricahua Apache assemblage on one site dates to the A.D. 1400s, making it the earliest-known Athabascan site in the Southwest. Other intermediate-period sites provide the evidence needed to connect the material culture of the prehistoric Hohokam to the historic Upper Pima. A degree of initial continuity in material culture (related to the Rio Rico Complex) is eradicated as substantial changes were introduced into the archaeological record by the influx and intermixing of nomadic groups from the Plains (Puri/Jípuris) with the indigenous Pima (Soba).

  • An Examination of Food Storage in Grand Canyon National Park And
    AN EXAMINATION OF FOOD STORAGE IN GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK AND GRAND STAIRCASE-ESCALANTE NATIONAL MONUMENT By Jenny Engleman A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Masters of the Arts in Anthropology Northern Arizona University May 2018 Christian Downum, Ph.D., Chair Francis Smiley, Ph.D. Michelle Parsons, Ph.D. ABSTRACT AN EXAMINATION OF FOOD STORAGE IN GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK AND GRAND STAIRCASE-ESCALANTE NATIONAL MONUMENT JENNY ENGLEMAN Ancient occupation of the American Southwest was full of uncertainty. Precipitation was unreliable, and sufficient edible plants and animal resources were linked to the productivity of the environment. Communities had to be resourceful and flexible in the face of scarcity. To ensure reliable food sources, ancient peoples often stored crops and other plant foods in sealed masonry structures, or granaries, protected in alcoves high on canyon walls. This thesis research compares ancient methods for coping with scarcity by examining the presence of patterns in prehispanic granary construction in the Grand Canyon and the Fiftymile Mountain region of Grand Staircase-Escalante. Granaries in the two regions date between A.D. 1000 and A.D. 1250 and are associated with three main cultural groups: the Kayenta branch of the Ancestral Puebloans, the Virgin branch of the Ancestral Puebloans, and the Cohonina. Food storage practices are analyzed using adaptive concepts of optimization and risk minimization, adding to the understanding of the complex nature of human interaction with the environment. Although similar Ancestral Puebloan groups occupied the Grand Canyon and Grand Staircase-Escalante, the results of the research show variability in how granaries were incorporated into scarcity management.

  • Abstract Wupatki National Monument
    Abstract Wupatki National Monument: Archeology and Tourism, 1900-1956 Tyson Pendery The pueblo ruins at Wupakti National Monument were preserved by President Calvin Coolidge under powers given to the executive branch by the Antiquities Act of 1906. The architecture and material culture of Wupatki and other prehistoric ruins in the Southwest have proven important cultural and scientific resources to the nation. The arid climate of the Southwest allowed these ruins to be well preserved for both scientific study and the enjoyment of the general public. The story of Wupatki's preservation and management during the first half of the twentieth-century reveals the relationship between archaeology and tourism in the United States. It is argued in this thesis that fiom 1900-1956 the values of preservation archeology at Wupatlu were increasingly sacrificed for the valued of archeological tourism. Three trends in American history allowed this process to manifest itself. First, as native peoples gained cultural importance, or a solidified place within the collective identity of Americans, U.S. citizens sought to experience Indian culture. Second, technological developments and nation-wide prosperity increasingly allowed more to visit preserves like Wupatki. Finally, early preservation politics codified a tradition of h bringing visitors to both scenic and historic places as a means to support preservation values. Understanding the historical dynamics between tourism and the preservation of archeological ruins has the potential to allow current preserve managers and the National Park Service a better understanding of the roots of current management policy.

  • Unearthing the Past at Clover Ruin: the 1993-1994 Passport in Time Project
    Unearthing the Past at Clover Ruin: The 1993-1994 Passport In Time Project Volunteers screened all the dirt to unveil artifacts buried for over 1000 years. On the surface many Cohonina sites are difficult to see. At Clover Ruin archaeologists noticed concentrations of rubble that also included scattered artifacts. Because of the historic impacts to the site and its proximity to the Ranger Station, archaeologists determined that Clover Ruin would be a valuable site to excavate. It would be a good way to interpret the history of the area for the public. Archaeologists mapped all the rubble and had volunteers collect all the artifacts from the surface of the entire area. Volunteers carefully excavated 2 by 2 meter grid squares and collected all artifacts found during screening. In this manner, they created a detailed map that showed wall rubble and concentrations of artifacts. Archaeologists have long sought to better understand the ancestral Puebloan people who lived west of the San Francisco Peaks between AD After screening and bagging the artifacts 700 and AD 1100. The 1993-1994 Passport in Time project offered found at each level, volunteers washed all volunteers and archaeologists an opportunity to explore the ancient ceramic, stone and historic artifacts so that lifestyles of people that archaeologists call the Cohonina. The Cohonina archaeologists could analyze them in the lab. are distinguished by their San Francisco Mountain Gray Ware ceramics (whose decorated types were generally analogous to ancestral Puebloan styles of the same time periods). Early sites are small and of variable architectural lay out. They include pithouses and above ground storage structures.
