Excavations at seven sites in West Prescott, Arizona, provide new information on a poorly understood group.  The results suggest a "pit house-figurine" population of the Prescott Culture who reinforced social identity through production of ceramic figurines in human and animal forms.  Evidence indicates use of a range of local wild resources including large game, cultivation of maize and other domesticated plants, and trade in marine shell, Hohokam ceramics, and at least some of the Prescott Gray Ware pottery that is associated with this culture.

Animas-La Plata Project, Volume I: Cultural Resources Research and Sampling Design (Swca Anthropological Research Paper)

<p>This report compiles evidence concerning cultural affiliation with NAGPRA items recovered from the Animas–La Plata (ALP) project area near Durango, Colorado, for 25 modern tribal groups residing in Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico. Though a small percentage of the cultural resources in the ALP project area represent earlier and later cultures, most identified archaeological remains, including NAGPRA items, date to the Pueblo I period (ca. A.D. 700–900). A preponderance of geographic, biological, oral tradition, linguistic, and archaeological evidence reasonably leads to the conclusion that the modern Keresan Pueblos of Acoma, Laguna, and Zia are the closest cultural affiliates to the Pueblo I period sites in the ALP project area.</p>

Animas-La Plata Project, Volume II: Cultural Affiliation Study (Swca Anthropological Research Paper, 10)

Perry, Elizabeth M.

This volume of the Animas–La Plata series describes the results of excavations on Blue Mesa, a borrow area just south of Durango, Colorado, as part of the Animas–La Plata (ALP) Project.  In 2002 and 2003, SWCA excavated seven sites, all of which dated to the early Pueblo I period (AD 750–850): four habitations and three limited activity sites.  One of the limited activity sites also contained a small Basketmaker II component and a Paleoindian component.  The authors use these limited excavation data in conjunction with previous survey data to address issues of chronology, population, and settlement on the mesa and to make comparisons with nearby Ridges Basin, the location of the ALP reservoir.

Animas-La Plata Project, Volume III: Blue Mesa Excavations

Chuipka, Jason P.

This volume of the Animas–La Plata series (SWCA Anthropological Research Paper No. 10) contains nineteen chapters and two appendixes that summarize the results of the Animas–La Plata (ALP) Project. This volume has four objectives. The first is to address the research questions posed in the research design. The second is to provide a stand-alone summary of the project results for the scientific community and other interested readers. Third, this volume summarizes the conclusions of other ALP project reports and directs the reader to those reports for additional, more detailed information on specific research topics. The final goal is to present new ideas and insights concerning the archaeological record of the project area based on the new information generated by the project.
