(2) LETTERS OF SUPPORT NEEDED FOR U.S. HOUSE BILL 2497
TO EXPAND CASA GRANDE RUINS NATIONAL MONUMENT
[From Andy Laurenzi, Archaeology Southwest, Tucson]
Arizona Representatives Ann Kirkpatrick and Paul Gosar recently introduced
legislation to expand the Casa Grande Ruins National Monument to incorporate
parts of the outlying Adamsville Hohokam Preclassic-and-Classic-period site
and the Grewe archaeological site (which was evidently the original
settlement of the Casa Grande Hohokam community), and land at the northwest
corner of the existing Monument. Both legislators would like to have the
bill heard in Committee in August and impressed upon us the need for letters
of support.
Please direct your letter to either Representative Gosar or Representative
Kirkpatrick, and be sure to cc: the other along with representatives
Grijalva and Pastor, who are also cosponsors. The Bill is House Bill 2497,
which you can view at this link:

(3) LATEST OLD PUEBLO ARCHAEOLOGY BULLETIN IS NOW AVAILABLE
The latest issue of the “Old Pueblo Archaeology” quarterly bulletin has just
been published. In this issue's feature article, “Dating the Sobaípuri: A
Case Study in Chronology Building and Archaeological Interpretation,”
archaeologist Dr. Deni J. Seymour discusses research she has conducted in
southern Arizona’s San Pedro and Santa Cruz river valleys over the past 30
years on archaeological sites of the Sobaípuri O'odham, an early Historic
period group related to the Pima and Tohono O'odham of southern Arizona and
northern Sonora, Mexico. As part of this research she has collected dozens
of archaeological samples for dating the occupations of Sobaípuri sites by
various kinds of independent chronometric analyses.
In this article Dr. Seymour summarizes the results of her long-term research
efforts and discusses the implications for understanding the transition from
prehistory to history in the southern Southwest. Her results suggest that
Sobaípuri O'odham were present in southern Arizona as early as the
thirteenth or fourteenth century. If so, this has very interesting
implications for whether the prehistoric Hohokam and other related
“prehistoric” cultures were directly ancestral to the O’odham peoples who
occupied southern Arizona between AD 1450 and the first Spanish Colonial
contact with this area in the 1690s.
Like every issue, this latest “Old Pueblo Archaeology” is
written in a nontechnical format, includes ample illustrations, and is
published electronically in pdf format for on-line access. Each issue of
“Old Pueblo Archaeology” includes one or more feature articles about
southwestern archaeology, history, or cultures and provides news about Old
Pueblo Archaeology Center's activities and program offerings.

“Tucson Underground: The Archaeology of a Desert Community” free
presentation by William H. Doelle for Arizona Archaeological and Historical
Society monthly meeting at University of Arizona Medical Center's Duval
Auditorium, 1501 N. Campbell Ave., Tucson*
7:30-9 p.m. Free
William Doelle will explore important tenets of “preservation
archaeology” as it relates to Tucson’s downtown area: Archaeological
resources are nonrenewable, and when there is broad community awareness of
the meaning and values of places of the past, then the protection of those
places becomes a priority. Some examples of the responses of community
members to losses as well as preservation successes will be considered using
examples from downtown.
* This is not an Old Pueblo Archaeology Center-sponsored event. No
reservations are needed. For details contact Jon Boyd at Tucson telephone

“Arts and Culture of Ancient Southern Arizona Hohokam Indians” free
presentation by Old Pueblo Archaeology Center's director, archaeologist
Allen Dart, for Pima County Natural Resources Parks and Recreation at Brandi
Fenton Memorial Park, 3482 E. River Road, Tucson; cosponsored by Arizona
Humanities Council
10-11 a.m. Free
The Hohokam Native American culture flourished in southern Arizona
from the sixth through fifteenth centuries. Hohokam artifacts, architecture,
and other material culture provide archaeologists with clues for identifying
where the Hohokam lived, for interpreting how they adapted to the Sonoran
Desert for centuries, and explaining why the Hohokam culture mysteriously
disappeared. In this presentation archaeologist Allen Dart illustrates the
material culture of the Hohokam and presents possible interpretations about
their relationships to the natural world, their time reckoning, religious
practices, beliefs, and deities, and possible reasons for the eventual
demise of their way of life. The program features slides of Hohokam
artifacts, rock art, and other cultural features, a display of authentic
prehistoric artifacts, and recommended readings for more information about
the Hohokam. Funding for program provided by the Arizona Humanities Council.

“Archaeology and You: Preserving the Past for the Future” free
presentation by archaeologist Allen Dart for Homolovi Chapter, Arizona
Archaeological Society, at Winslow Chamber of Commerce (Old Hubbell
Building), 523 W. Second St., Winslow, Arizona. Cosponsored by the Arizona
Humanities Council.
7-8 p.m. Free
Tombs in an ancient Maya city are sacked by looters seeking
artifacts to sell. Relic collectors lease an archaeological site and dig it
up to collect artifacts, leaving craters littered with human bones and
broken grave objects. A petroglyph is chiseled out of a rock face. These
actions destroy part of the archaeological record of humankind. In this
presentation Mr. Dart notes that artifacts and cultural features ranging
from small pieces of pottery and arrowheads to petroglyphs, glass bottles,
coins, and other historical objects often are the only sources of
information that archaeologists have to answer questions about an ancient
people's way of life, which makes it important for these items to be left
undisturbed in their original context.Funding for program provided by the
Arizona Humanities Council.

Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought”
dinner & presentation: “Along the California Trail” with American Indian
cultures scholar-musicologist Dr. Jay Craváth, at Coco's Bakery Restaurant,
7250 N. Oracle Rd., Tucson.
6 to 8:30 p.m. Free (Order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s
menu)
An ancient set of Indian paths and the natural flow of the Gila
River created a major artery for travel through Arizona. The Gila provided a
ready route for the earliest traders (who some would say included the
Toltecs of Mexico) who traded among the Mogollon, Anasazi (Ancestral
Pueblo), and Hohokam. This program focuses on the varied travelers along
this route – their struggles, stories, and fates. It also explores the
legacies these explorers left. The journals, stories, songs and art that
came from these travels are rich and revealing of our state’s explorers and
citizens.
Jay Craváth is a composer, writer, and scholar in the field of music
and American Indian studies. Dr. Craváth crafts programs from these
interests into interactive discussions that include stories, musical
performance, and dance. His most recent publication is “The Mohave Book for
Little Ones.”
Guests may select and purchase their own dinners from the
restaurant’s menu. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to
benefit Old Pueblo’s educational efforts. Because seating is limited in
order for the program to be in compliance with the Fire Code, those wishing
to attend must call 520-798-1201 and must have their reservations confirmed
before 5 p.m. Wednesday September 18.

artist Andy Ward on seven Sunday afternoons October 13 through November 24,
2013, including a clay-gathering field trip on October 20. The class is
designed to help modern people understand how prehistoric Native Americans
made and used pottery, and is not intended to train students how to make
artwork for sale. The Level 1 class demonstrates traditional hand-building
pottery techniques using gourd scrapers, mineral paints, and yucca brushes
instead of modern potters’ wheels and paint. The course introduces some
history of southwestern Ancestral and Modern Pueblo, Mogollon, and Hohokam
pottery-making, includes a field trip in which participants dig their own
clay, and demonstrates initial steps in forming, shaping and smoothing, and
completion of bowls, jars, canteens, ladles, and rattles of both smooth and
corrugated pottery, by scraping, polishing, sanding, slipping and painting.
The paddle-and-anvil hand-building method is also demonstrated.

presentation by archaeologist Allen Dart for Verde Valley Chapter, Arizona
Archaeological Society, at Sedona Public Library, 3250 White Bear Road,
Sedona, Arizona. Cosponsored by Arizona Humanities Council.*
7-8:30 p.m. Free
Native Americans in the Southwest developed sophisticated skills in
astronomy and predicting the seasons, centuries before Old World peoples
first entered the region. In this presentation archaeologist Allen Dart
discusses historically known sky-watching practices of various southwestern
peoples, and how their ancestors’ observations of the heavens may have been
commemorated in ancient architecture and rock symbols. The program
illustrates cardinal, solstice, and equinox alignments and possible
calendrical reckoning features at such places as Arizona’s Casa Grande Ruins
and Picture Rocks petroglyphs sites, New Mexico’s Chaco Canyon
archaeological district, the Hovenweep area of Utah, and the Mesa Verde and
Chimney Rock regions of Colorado. Mr. Dart also offers interpretation of how
these discoveries may relate to ancient Native American ritual.

Hohokam Indians” free presentation by archaeologist Allen Dart at Pima
County Public Library's Valencia Branch, 202 W. Valencia Rd., Tucson*
6-7:30 p.m.; free
The Hohokam Native American culture flourished in southern Arizona
from the sixth through fifteenth centuries. Hohokam artifacts, architecture,
and other material culture provide archaeologists with clues for identifying
where the Hohokam lived, for interpreting how they adapted to the Sonoran
Desert for centuries, and explaining why the Hohokam culture mysteriously
disappeared. In this presentation archaeologist Allen Dart illustrates the
material culture of the Hohokam and presents possible interpretations about
their relationships to the natural world, their time reckoning, religious
practices, beliefs, and deities, and possible reasons for the eventual
demise of their way of life.

years ago. The cave, which actually is a very large rockshelter, also
contains pictographs, petroglyphs, and other archaeological features used by
Native Americans for thousands of years. Tour leaves Tucson at 6:30 a.m. to

View Asian Cuisine, 400 N. Bonita Ave., Tucson
6 to 8:30 p.m. Free (Order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s

The Sears Point Archaeological District (SPAD) is a large and
complex cultural resource strewn along the terraces on the south side of the
Gila River. Steep volcanic cliffs and boulders contain over 2,000 panels of
petroglyphs, one of the largest concentrations in North America. Evelyn F.
Billo and Robert K. Mark of Rupestrian CyberServices, and archaeologist
Donald E. Weaver, Jr., of Plateau Mountain Desert Research mapped all
petroglyph panels, and photographed and recorded at least 9,746 individual
rock symbols and an additional 87 archaeological features. Geoglyphs
(intaglios), rock piles, rings, and alignments, cleared areas, extensive
trails, historical features from the 1800s, and traces of temporary
habitation features all were documented. A variety of archaeological
cultures including the Desert Archaic, Patayan, and Hohokam used the site,
and it is possible there was Paleoindian presence.
Guests may select and purchase their own dinners from the
restaurant’s menu. There is no entry fee but donations will be requested to

Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s “Third Thursday Food for Thought”
dinner & presentation: “Hohokam and Mimbres Art and Ideology” with
archaeologist Allen Dart at ****[restaurant to be announced], Tucson
6 to 8:30 p.m. Free (Order your own dinner off of the restaurant’s
menu)
Comparison of New Mexico’s Classic Mimbres (AD 1000-1130)
rock art and that of the contemporaneous Hohokam culture of southern Arizona
helps define the spheres of those cultures’ art and ideology. Certain icons
are common to both Hohokam and Mimbres rock art, whereas each culture also
exhibits repeated motifs that apparently were not produced by the other.
Comparison and contrast of the shared and unshared rock art images, and of
other aspects of Hohokam and Mimbres cultures, suggest similarities as well
as differences in their respective religious beliefs and practices.
The presenter for this “dinner-format” program is Allen Dart, a
registered professional archaeologist who works full time as State Cultural
Resources Specialist for the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and
volunteers his time as Executive Director of Tucson’s Old Pueblo Archaeology
Center.
Guests may select and purchase their own dinners from the
