Brethauer, Douglas Paul. 1977a. “An Archaeological Survey of a Proposed 42" Oil Pipeline from Jal, New Mexico to Midland, Texas.” 140. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaelogical survey performed for the right-of-way of a proposed pipeline from Lea County, New Mexico to Midland, Texas. This survey line goas through the shinnery oak sandhill belt to the caprock area in Texas. The only site located was in a dune area in the shinnery oak area that the survey team tentatively designated as a archaic site based on the lack of pottery. This site may have functioned as a seasonal gathering site. Recommended mitigation on the effects on cultural resources included excavation of the site. However, the site was located on private land and the report stated that it was basically up to the land owners and the company building the pipeline.

One isolated flake, a lithic scatter, and a large multi-component Salado habitation site occurred in the survey area. The lithic scatter and isolated flake were recorded and collected. The Salado site, named Buena Vista Site, is made up of three large room blocks and plaza area. Two of the room blocks fell within the proposed right-of-way. This site has been extensively excavated since 1897 and also heavily pot hunted. The site was tentatively dated by the survey team as being occupied during the 1400’s based off of ceramic seriations. It is possible to have been occupied farther back and different phases of occupation at the different room blocks are unclear. Surface collections were made from the two room blocks in the right-of-way. Avoidance is recommended for the Salado site and clearance was recommended for the project.

Carmichael, David. 1983a. “An Archaeological Clearance Survey of Fifteen Geothermal Drill Pads in Northern and Central New Mexico.” 557. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaeological survey was conducted.

———. 1984. “Archaeological Mitigation at Three Lithic Sites in Harding County, Northeastern New Mexico.” 570. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: A comparative study through surface sampling and test excavation of three limited activity lithic scatters. Rock structures most likely representing sheep pens were also present at two site, but were not the focus of the study. A sample of the surface collection was used to project artifact density. Lithic analysis verified results from initial survey that the sites are most like a result of prehistoric lithic procurement activity. Within site variation using T-tests to compare similarity of distribution in different site areas based on lithic weights. NMSU 1470 displays an increase of tertiary flakes which is suggested that further biface reduction occurred at the site and density suggests reoccupation of the site through time for various logistical uses. These sites are suggested to have been occupied anywhere from 1000 B.C.-A.D. 1000 determined by site morphology due to lack of temporally diagonostic artifacts..

Abstract: Two prehistoric campsites on the west of El Paso, Texa were excavated in order to mitigate adverse effects of the Keystone Dam, Highway Diversion Channel. Obsidian hydration dating places site 37 at a late Formative period in contrast to early interpretations of a late archaic date. Variation artifact distribution could be results of two different mobility patterns. Site 36 is interpreted as a short-term logistic camp and Site 37 as a short-term base camp. The late date is argued for the existence of a generalized, highly mobile adaptive strategy at roughly the same time as more sedentary Pueblo-based strategies.

David T. Kirkpatrick, Toni Sudar-Laumbach, Meliha Duran. 1980. “Archaeological Investigations in Block II, Navajo Indian Irrigation Project: A Popular Summary.” 448. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: Summary of work done in Block II for Navajo Indian Irrigation Project in San Juan County, New Mexico. The goal of this project is a reconstruction of lifeways of Archaic, Anasazi, and Navajo populations in this area through the activities performed at sites in the northern portion of the Chaco Plateau of the San Juan Basin. The project covered forty-one sites. The majority of archaic and Anasazi sites represent temporary campsites utilized to procure resources from the bolson environment such as Indian ricegrass or lithic materials. One Anasazi site located at the conlfuence of two large washes contains masonry rooms as well as two cysts representing cultivation at some capacity in the area. Navajo occupation is not present until early 1900’s. In coordination with ethnohistoric research, excavation at Navajo sites represents great example of acculturation of Navajo population in Gallegos Mesa.

The results of trenching found the majority of material to be a component from aproximately 1880-1903 possibly representing a saloon. An earlier component as far back as the 1850’s is present in the western half of the site diagnosed based on the presence of local earthenwares. Due to the high potential for significant historical data, the report recommends that a more extensive mitigation take place to collect sufficient data.

Des E. Stuart, Karl Laumbach. 1983. “Testing and Collection of Site Nmsu 796 Located Between Las Cruces and Alamogordo, New Mexico.” 549. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: NMSU 796, a lithic scatter previously surveyed and flagged for avoidance and documented in NMSU CRMD report #446 was subjected to a surface collection and test excavation following damage caused to the site by construction activities. The surface scatter was collected by grid, while test excavation utilized test pits placed strategically and systematic trenches opened up using a backhoe. Test pits did not reveal sub surface cultural layers. Trenches provided a better idea of the stratigraphy in the dune area. Overall 141 were collected with only three ceramics all El Paso Brown sherds not in direct association with the rest of the site. Based on the presence of a late Archaic style point the site was designated a tentative chronological designation of 1000 B.C.-A.D. 500. Lithic analysis concluded that the materials were derived locally, but attempts to determine Archaic or Formative reduction technique based off platform preperation and dorsal scars was inconclusive. The assemblage and environment suggests the site served a one time location for plant procurement. After confirming that the site did not yield additional data, clearance was recommended for the site.

Only one isolated occurence of pottery sherds and two lithic tools appeared in the survey area.

Douglas Paul Brethauer, Paul S. Minnis, Stanley D. Bussey. 1978. “Archaeological Investigations at LA15330, Dona Ana County, NM.” 250. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: Survey and Excavation for proposed 345 KV powerline for El Paso Electric Company reported in CRMD report #111. Located in west-central Dona Ana County. LA15330 represents a gathering site on the peripheral of two prehistoric societies that was occupied seasonally by at least 330 B.C. to A.D. 1140. Hearths were the only features discovered in excavation with associated ceramic, lithic, and faunal assemblages. A focus on the role of gathering during the shift toward aggregated communities is the main focus, in particular, trying to establish material evidence for mesquite processing at this site and how this interaction changed over time as reliance on agriculture grew.

Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaeological survey conducted for the right-of-way of six seismographic test lines in Sierra, Luna, and Dona Ana Counties, New Mexico. A total of twenty-two sites occurred in the survey areas. These sites ranged from archaic to formative to historic in culture affiliation and represented mainly campsites and seasonal procurement sites and a couple habitation sites associated with the Mimbres and Jornada Mogollon culture. Archaeological clearance was granted for the survey lines with recommendations to avoid the archaeological sites by shifting the lines proposed.

Judith Southward, Stanley D. Bussey. 1978. “An Archaeological Investigation of Cultural Resources Along a Water Distribution System in Caballero Canyon, Otero County, NM.” 260. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: Archaeological reconnaissance of a proposed water pipeline transmission system for the city of Alamogordo in the Alamo, Caballero, and Gordon Canyons on the west slope of the Sacramento Mountains in Otero County, NM. This survey identified a lithic scatter along the pipeline route and six concentrations of chipped stone as well as a historical structure. Chert veins were located in several site locations. Upon completion of test pits, no sites displayed lack of depth or structures. Surface lithic assemblages were collected and analyzed. It was found that the majority of the materials were sourced locally, yet hammerstones or percussion tools for the reductive process were not in association with the scatters. Radiocarbon samples acquired for one apache hearth dated to 1625 A.D. +-50. The author suggests that largely Archaic and some Formative occupations are represented by the lithic scatters with apache reoccupying some of the same areas. An analysis of point typology revealed that most points collected had an affiliation with the Archaic Cochise Tradition. Only four pottery sherds were recovered from all sites surveyed and tested further reinforcing the more intensive use by Archaic groups. While not conclusive of project goals to 1) establish cultural affiliations 2) determine site functions, this project confirms importance of Cabellero Canyon as a resource that has been utilized continuously since archaic times as a quarry, water source, for hunting and gathering, crop cultivation, as well as a passage from the Tularosa basin to the Sacremento mountains.

Kirkpatrick. 1983a. “A Cultural Resource Inventory of the Plains Electric Transmission Line Between the Springer Substation and Rayado Canyon in Colfax County, Northeastern New Mexico.” 545. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaeological inventory was conducted for the rebuilding of an electric transmission line. Six isolated artifacts and nine archaeological sites were located with the right-of-way. The nine archaeological sites included lithic scatters and hearths possibly associated with Archaic groups as indicated from an identified Basketmaker point, tipi ring sites from historic Plains Indians, and Euro-American house foundation that collude with settlement in the area in the early 1900’s. The survey also crossed several historical trails, including sections of the Santa Fe trail. The archaeological sites were not recommended to be given clearance due to the high research potential.

Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaeological survey was conducted. The line passes through the Taos trail however, no archaeological resources were reported and clearance was recommended. This may be a result of the heavy layer of sod that would conceal surface materials as the natural pathway used historically was likely used prehistorically as well.

———. 1983c. “A 2% Archaeological Sample of State Land in Western Sierra County, New Mexico.” 566. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: A 2% survey of State of New Mexico land in sierra county to inventory cultural resources and design a predictive model for prehistoric settlement patterns is documented in this report. A sample strategy of transects undertaken in three stages documented the presence of sixty-nine archaeological sites. The results of survey showed that sites had the highest density within the pinon-juniper zone. It is postulated that the situation of pinon-juniper zone allows for access to the grassland situated below and Ponderosa zone situated above it which made for a strategically advantageous area. The survey included limited activity and habitation sites that ranged in diagnostic material from Paleo-Indian to historic periods. Paleo-Indian and Archaic usage of the area seems to be fairly limited and continues into the pithouse period. Mimbres sites see a spike in usage with sites situated along every drainage with larger habitation sites located on terraces overlooking confluences and smaller sites located in proximity with alluvium suitable for farming. El Paso Phase and Tularosa Phase settlements that aggregate in the area are not well represented in the surveyed state lands. Historical sites recorded on survey details mining, ranching, and farming activities in historic periods but underrepresents the density of activity in Sierra County. Focus in survey also recorded the impact of vandalism on large Mimbres villages by pot hunters. More comprehensive survey is recommended for the Black Range and adjacent areas to enable a more complete knowledge of the area for research and protection of cultural resources.

Karl W. Laumbach, Meliha Duran, Kira Silvervird. 1980. “Emergency Survey and Excavation in Southwestern New Mexico.” 354. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: This project was designed to mitigate impacts of repairs for levvees along major drainages in Southwest New Mexico that were damaged by floods in December 1978. Survey located a total of thirty-four sites. Four of these sites were tested and two were excavated prior to destruction. A possible Animas phase site surveyed along the Animas drainage while not excavated, is of note. The results from testing and excavation covered cultural material spanning 1700 years of prehistoric nature and one historic site. Excavations revealed portion of a early mogollon village including a shallow disc shaped pithouse with associated roasting pit and Cochise tradition projectile point, light scatter and hearth associated with Mimbres village, as well as a temporary campsite for processing vegetal material associated with Cibola Mogollon. Pollen and Flotation testing from the pithouse and campsite yielded presence of corn, amaranth, squash, and cattail.

The other site was made up of depressions and sparse lithics, most likely a result of natural processes. Recommendation for avoidance are provided to gain clearance.

Karl W. Laumbach, Mollie S. Toll, Marcia L. Donaldson. 1981. “An Intensive Archaeological Survey of 3 Use Areas on White Sands Missile Range.” 450. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: This project was a survey of use areas in the WSMR resulting in the surface collection and test excavation of three of the five sites reported. Sites were temporary campsites located on an alluvial slope of the east side of the Organ-San Andres chain. The sites collected were heavily eroded showing no surface depth. The materials present were mainly lithic materials with only three pieces of ceramics present in the collection area. Dates acquired from hearth excavation yielded ages from the mid-late formative while the assemblage mainly represnts Archaic-early formative biface production. Clearance is recommended given other sites are avoided.

Karl W. Laumbach, Toni Laumbach, Kira Silverbird. 1979. “A Cultural Resource Inventory of the Proposed Laguna Plata Archaeological District.” 335. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: Survey of Laguna Plata area south of Roswell for Class III inventory in order to define the boundaries of the archaeological district so that it can be nominated to the National Register of Historic Places. A total of 26 sites were identified during the survey. Sites were characterized by large scatters extending up to miles at some sites. The area is interpreted to be the location of seasonal hunting and gathering by relatively small populations that has been utilized over the last 10,000 years. The survey area lacks permanent structures and is located in a bolson area with stabilized and active dunes and eroding terraces surrounding a playa. No artifacts were collected during the survey.

The hearths were the focus of test pits which yielded carbon samples (not processed because of funding constraints. The conclusion that this was a semipermanent seasonally occuppied site is based off the bowl to jar ratio and a Maljamar phase designation was given to the site. Clearance was recommended.

———. 1984. “The Vista Hills Site: Eight Thousand Years at the Edge of the Hueco Bolson.” 563. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: The salvage excavation of the Vista Hills site is documented in this report. Due to extreme disturbance from humans and the eventual degradation of site integrity from erosional processes, it was decided to excavate the site. An extensive history of previous archaeological work done at the site posits that the fifty hectare lithic scatter is a temporary campsite that was occupied from Paleo-Indian to Formative groups. The base of a Folsom point was discovered at the site. The excavation involved extensive trenching of the site to reveal any subsurface cultural layers. Implementation of obsidian hydration and C14 dating methods revealed that sub-surface layers were severely intermixed preventing spatial analysis of artifact clusters. The results of lithic analysis and dating methods determined that the location was likely utilized more so by Paleo and Archaic groups and only by early Formative Groups with complete absence of late Formative use.

———. 1979b. “An Archaeological Clearance Survey and Excavation of LA 18153, Dona Ana County, New Mexico.” 315. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaeological survey and excavation was conducted for a proposed development in Dona Ana County. Upon survey, a two component site of a prehistoric lithic scatter and historic trash was recorded. A surface collection and excavation was conducted to determine culutural affiliation, occupation, and function of the site. Little depth was seen throughout the site and temporal determination was not determined. The site was interpreted as a lithic procurement area and a lithic analysis determined that only the first stages of tool production occurred. Historic artifacts suggest that the area was in use sometime after 1910 and was potentially related to a house foundation outside the survey area.

Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: This is a multidisciplinary study implemented to mitigate impacts in Block II of the Navajo Indian Irrigation Project, San Juan County, New Mexico of cultural resources. Encompassing forty-one sites that include Archaic, Anasazi, and Navajo material, this study aims to create a data base and point of reference for the archaeology in the Block II area. The sites surveyed and excavated are made up of multi and single occupation sites that were seasonally occupied to collect and process natural resources from the dune environment. Results of excavation yielded less than expected because of the lack of stratigraphy and preservation of paleoenvironmental record in a dune environment. The analysis of the lithic assemblage did help to define some differences in the identification of Navajo, Anasazi, and Archaic lithic assemblages. The ceramics associated with Anasazi sites were of the Mesa Verde tradition with a high proportion of jars to bowls which supports resource procurement as the main activity at the sites. While a complete lifeway was difficult to construct for Archaic and Anasazi groups, Reconstruction of Navajo lifeways in the area was largely more successful because of the ability to utilize ethnohistoric resources.

Marc Thompson, Patrick H. Beckett. 1979. “A Study of Prehistoric Campsites in Northeast El Paso.” 310. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: Resurvey, mapping, and surface collection of four sites and test excavation of a hearth on one site in northeast El Paso, Texas in the Hueco Bolson. These sites represent prehistoric campsites used as seasonal food-gathering areas for the archaic and pithouse phases. Radiocarbon dates acquired from the excavated hearth and an eroding hearth located in the same vicinity yielded dates A.D. 665 and 940 respectively. Study suggests revision of campsite typology to prevent incorrect temporal associations. Botanical analysis yielded mesquite and chenopodium seeds.

Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaeological survey and testing of three modern navajo sites for the right-of-way of the proposed Starlake railroad in McKinley and San Juan Counties, New Mexico. The report is divided into three sections. The first section is a resurvey of a railroad right-of-way described in NMSU CRMD report #26. Eight additional sites were reported in the right of way made up of six sites with ancestral Puebloan components and three sites with Navajo components . Avoidance is recommended for all sites except a modern navajo site which is to be tested. The second section documents the testing of the former Navajo site and a survey of a railroad realignment. Test pits were completed on four of the six features. A modern navajo site and a prehistoric scatter were also recorded during the survey. The Navajo site is subject to direct impact and is recommended to be tested. The third section of the report details the testing of the former Navajo site and a survey for three borrow pit areas. The testing involved two test pits. The survey resulted in the recording of two prehistoric sites with possible masonry walls present. Avoidance was recommended for these sites. Three of the modern Navajo sites including the two tested sites were also included in an ethnohistoric study documented in report #184.

Mark Bond, Fred P. Frampton, Toni Sudar-Murphy. 1977. “Highway Salvage Archaeology in the Vicinity of Chilchinbito, Arizona: Excavation and Interpretation of Seven Kayenta Anasazi Sites in Navajo and Apache Counties, Arizona.” 146. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: Excavation, testing, and interpretation of seven Kayenta Anasazi sites near Chilchinbito, Arizona to be impacted by the construction and expansion of highway N59. This project also involved reconnaissance of a section of N59. Site NA8800 included in the investigation was excavated in 1965 by the Museum of Northern Arizona. The most extensive excavation at NA8800 revealed several pithouse structures dating from BMIII-PI that were not previously excavated by the Museum of Northern Arizona. Also undertaken was an extensive lithic analysis for the assemblage of NA8800 as lithic technologies in the Black Mesa area were not clearly defined at the time. Excavation and analysis suggest an extensive occupation from BM-III to P-I and a recoccupation occuring during late P-II to early P-III.

Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaeological survey of several areas for the right-of-way of construction projects on the White Sands Missile range in Soccorro and Dona Ana Counties, New Mexico. Eight archaeological sites were recorded in the survey areas. The survey was divided into two sections, one occurring in Socorro County in the Jornada Bolson and the southern portion in the Tularosa Basin. Six sites were located in the northern portion largely located on playa edges and ephemerally occupied by archaic and Capitan phase jornada mogollon groups. Those located in the south occurred in the dune areas. Those in the south may have been seasonal gathering sites associated with a large El Paso Phase village destroyed by the construction of a nearby launch pad.

Abstract: An archaeological clearance survey conducted for drill locations in the Mount Taylor area. While initially fifty-one drill locations were identified for survey, the entire area was surveyed in the case that future drilling was done in the area. Fourteen archaeological sites were identified in the area spanning from archaic to historic time periods. One site represented a Middle Archaic campsite. A Late Archaic and/or Early Basketmaker campsite was also identified. One site and two isolated occurences showed a resemblance to Basketmaker II period campsite assemblages. The bulk of sites recorded, eleven in total, represented a Pueblo II occupation including temporary campsites, shelters, as well as masonry roomblocks. A human femur was found on the surface of one PII habitation site that appeared to be the result of bioturbation. A potential PI sherd was found at a campsite within PII assemblage, yet there was no other definitive evidence of PI occupation in the survey area. The historic sites recorded displayed material evidence of sheep herding that has been practiced since the 1700s. Clearance was provided for the drilling location with the condition to avoid cultural materials.

Shirley A Rorex, Deborah T. Connors. 1977. “An Intensive Archaeological Survey of Approximately 4.1 Sections of Land Near Bisti School, Township 23 North, Range 13 West, San Juan County, New Mexico.” 115. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaeological survey of over four sections of land in San Juan County, New Mexico. Eighteen archaeological sites were recorded in the survey area. Ten of the sites were associated with Historic Navajo occupations, four of the sites appear to be archaic or simply lacking ceramic assemblages, and three sites were considered puebloan occupations. The area located near Chaco Canyon appears to have had an extensive temporal occupation with the people utilizing the resources along the De-na-zin Wash which provided a semi-permanent water source for the procurement of resources for hunting and gathering as well as lithic procurement. The Navajo component were made up of either hogan cluster, single hogans, or isolated hornos assumed to be associated with the Navajo Squaw Dance. Five of the sites surveyed were to be immediately impacted by initial mining activities. The survey team recommended photography, surface collection and testing for the five sites with potential excavation needed if structures or depth of cultural fill were detected.

Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaeological survey conducted for the right-of-way of 11.4 sections of land to be eventually strip mined in San Juan County, New Mexico. Twenty-six sites appeared in the survey area in which seventeen were affiliated with the navajo culture, eight were aceramic and considered archaic, and one displayed a potential puebloan component. The archaic sites appear to be temporary sites for procuring resources from the area. All of the sites were located within distance of the De-na-zin wash which would have provided resources for hunting, gathering, and lithic procurement. The one exception being the puebloan site which shows a shift in settlement strategies. The navajo sites are represented by hogan clusters, single hogans, or solitary hornos assumed to be associated with the Navajo Squaw dance. Avoidance of the sites is recommended for exploratory drilling and access roads.

Stanley D. Bussey, D. Beth Bussey. 1977. “Excavation of a Small Prehistoric Site in Whitewater Canyon Near Glenwood, Catron County, NM.” 157. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: Excavation of a small prehistoric structure to determine cultural affiliation and use of data in conjunction with future projects to ascertain prehistoric flora, fauna, and weather patterns. Resulting excavations revealed that masonry structure of aprox. ten rooms had no depth and was most likely a field house or camp associated with a larger nearby site. No other architecture such as floors, post holes, or hearths could be found in association with the rock alignments. No ceramics were present, only stone artifacts. Lithic analysis indicates that the area was used as a primary reduction area.

Stanley D. Bussey, Kira Silverbird, M. Y. El-Najjar. 1982. “Conservatism on the Puerco River: Excavations at Four Small Farming Villages.” 380. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: This report compiles archaeological mitigation in advance of the construction of Road Project N11(2) between State Highway 566 and Marian Lake in McKinley County, NM. Survey of several tracks resulted in documenting of four sites to be affected by the construction. These sites located in the Puerco River drainage represents possible Pueblo II farming villages. PD 1 and PD 4 are represented by pithouses similar architecturally to White Mound Phase villages while the ceramic assemblage seems much closer related to a Red Mesa Phase. Bussey suggests a conservatism represented in architectural style while adapting newer ceramic styles. Sites PD 2 and PD 3 represent sheet trash from a period following the occupation of PD 1 and 4. The general lack of data from Puerco area at the time prevents further refinement of local architectural and ceramic trends in the scope of the broader Pecos Classification. The sites also inlcuded several burials. The principal investigation of the burial was to determine pathology.

Stanley D. Bussey, Patrick H. Beckett. 1974a. “An Archaeological Survey of Portions of the Placitas Arroyo Subwatershed.” 3. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: A report of a survey completed on the Placitas Arroyos area in Dona Ana County, New Mexico for the construction of a water easement project. Eight archaeological sites were recorded during the survey with six sites to be directly impacted by the construction project. The sites represent a occupation from the late archaic Hueco Phase to early formative Jornada Mogollon Mesilla Phase sites. The archaic sites included lithic scatters and ashy fills within dunes and hills. The Jornada Mogollon sites include scatters of pottery and lithics with several depressions noted that might be pithouses. The report recommends excavation for several sites in order to compare against current sequences developed for Jornada Mogollon and the transition to neolithic stage.

Staski, Edward. 1984a. “Archaeological Testing at the Cortez Parking Lot Site, El Paso, Texas.” 593. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: Twelve trenches were excavated at the Cortez Parking Lot Site revealing abundant evidence of El Paso’s Chinatown and residents during the turn of the 20th century. The documented features are mostly trash pits with high percentages of Chinese ceramics associated with the Chinese population and a small fraction of trash pits with mixed Anglo and Chinese material remains. Historical documents and materials collected associate activities in the trash pits to a Chinese restaurant, laundry, and domestic activity, and bike shop. It is recommended that further excavation is required for the poorly documented Chinese population in El Paso.

Toni Sudar-Murphy, Karl W. Laumbach. 1976. “An Archaeological Reconnaissance in West Dona Ana County.” 41. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: Report on the survey to provide clearance to three transects for seismic testing in western Dona Ana County, New Mexico. The survey team recorded ten sites designated Mesilla Phase Jornada Mogollon sites. The majority of the sites were made up of brownware pottery, in the form of jars, slab-basin metates and other groundstone, and a smaller lithic component usually located in mesquite dune areas. Based on the in field analysis (only certain ceramic and lithic samples were taken to the lab for analysis) it appears that the primary focus of the site was vegetal processing and a lesser component of hunting was performed in this area; however, hunting could have played a larger role with out leaving material traces as the area had limited access to suitable lithic materials and those carried in would be highly valued.

Tony M. Preslar, D. P. Brethauer, Susan M. Strong. 1977. “An Archaeological Survey of 4.75 Sections Near Star Lake, New Mexico.” 112. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University. Abstract: An archaeological survey of 4.75 sections to be utilized for strip mining activities in Mckinley County, New Mexico. Twenty-five archaeological sites were located in the survey area. Twenty-two of the archaelogical sites had prehistoric components, all of them lacking ceramics, four sites had historic Navajo components. The prehistoric sites were made up of lithic scatters and hearths and seven were considered to be significant based on datable materials such as obsidian and C-14. As the entire area surveyed would eventually be destroyed by mining activities, mitigation for the cultural resources is recommended for at least the seven prehistoric sites deemed significant along with three of the Navajo historic sites.

Trace Stuart, Mary Sullivan. 1984. “Archaeological Clearance Survey of Aproximately 15 Miles of Fence Line at White Sands National Monument.” 594. Las Cruces, NM: New Mexico State University.
