Archaeological Test Excavations at a Small, Historic Apache Campsite on the San Carlos Indian Reservation

摘要

Archaeological Research Services examined a small historic site (AZ V:11:39 (ARS)) on the San Carlos Indian Reservation in order to determine its potential eligibility for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places. Study procedures included site mapping, surface collection, and limited test excavations. It has been concluded that AZ V:11:39 (ARS) represents a campsite occupied by Apache farmers primarily during the first decade of the 20th century. One apparent structure (dwelling) was identified at this site. On the basis of this examination, it has been concluded that the site does not satisfy National Register eligibility criteria.
