Book Description
The survey covered lands adjacent to Galisteo Creek, in an area of alluvial terraces juniper-dotted shale ridges, and rolling grasslands. Heavily disturbed areas were not studied, leaving somewhat over 1550 acres which were intensively surveyed. Thirty-seven new sites and 149 isolated artifact loci were located, and five previously known sites were revisited and re-recorded. In addition, an area surveyed in 1976 was revisited; 15 sites were relocated and re-recorded; six new sites were located, and 46 new isolated finds were located. Identification of site function was often tentative, but sites papear to include lithic procurement and reduction loci, hunting-related sites, possible wild seed processing sites, farming campsites, field houses, transient activity loci (such as pot breaks), and campsites. (The only permanent habitation site was destroyed during dam construction). Of special note are two zones in which agricultural check dams were found, It appears that aboriginal use of the area was heaviest during Late Archaic and early Pueblo IV (Glaze A) times. Historic remains from the Hispanic period were scarce; the single known Hispanic habitation site was destroyed during dam related to mining, ranching , an old powerline, and an old section of the ATFS railroad.

An Archaeological Survey of the Galisteo Dam Boundary Line, Santa Fe County, New Mexico
Author: Richard W. Lang

Languages : en
Pages : 29
Book Description
The Corps of Engineers, Department of the Army, contracted with the School of American Research to conduct a cultural resource survey of the boundary of Corps held lands adjacent to the Galisteo dam, Santa Fe County, New Mexico (see Appendix A). The reason for the survey was that the proposed erection of a fence along the boundary line might have a negative impact upon known or potential cultural resources in that area through: (1) vehicular traffic over certain kinds of archaeological sites; (2) the excavation of post holes in site areas; and (3) the presence of a work crew at archaeological sites and the possibility of displacement or removal of archaeological specimens.

An Archaeological Survey of Certain Lands Adjacent to the Galisteo Dam, New Mexico

Pages : 97
Book Description
The survey methods employed were basically those conventional to intensive site-inventory surveys conducted by the Contract Archaeology Program of the School of American Research. The 430.38-acre area was traversed in a series of parallel, linear transects, 150 to 200 feet wide depending on the number of field workers participating, with each member of the survey party being responsible for covering a surface area 50 feet wide and of variable length as dictated by the study area boundaries. Upon discovery of an archaeological site, all members of the party took part in examining it and in determining its primary locus and outlying manifestations potentially associated with it; and while one crew member was selected to map the site configuration and establish precise site location within the survey area, each of the others recorded his or her individual observations. Upon completion of site recording, crew members realigned themselves in their positions at the time of site recognition, and transect coverage was resumed.
