Book Animas La Plata Project  Cultural resources research and sampling design

Download or read book Animas La Plata Project Cultural resources research and sampling design written by James M. Potter and published by Swca Environmental Consultants. This book was released on 2006 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient birthplace of some of the world's major religions and now a modern nuclear power, India is experiencing spectacular economic growth. In twenty-five years its population will overtake that of China, making it one of the most populous and rapidly-developing countries in the world. We all need to know more about this intriguing country. John Farndon explores the changing face of modern-day India and its fundamental contradictions. The country is leading the world in cutting edge technology and research, but it is also home to 40 per cent of the world's malnourished children. It is a liberal democracy, yet its political processes are influenced by some of the most conservative religious ideas in the world. The booming economy is at times both global and archaic. Getting to the heart of these inconsistencies, Farndon gives a fascinating insight into the country as it is now and as it will be in the future, and reveals how the changes in India will affect us all.

Book Animas La Plata Project  Blue Mesa excavations

Download or read book Animas La Plata Project Blue Mesa excavations written by James M. Potter and published by Swca Environmental Consultants. This book was released on 2006 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book Animas La Plata Project  Ridges Basin excavations  north central sites

Download or read book Animas La Plata Project Ridges Basin excavations north central sites written by James M. Potter and published by Swca Environmental Consultants. This book was released on 2006 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of the Animas-La Plata series describes the results of excavations at 7 sites in the northern and central portions Ridges Basin approximately 2 miles south of Durango, Colorado, as part of the Animas-La Plata (ALP) Project. Though not as tightly aggregated as other Pueblo I habitation clusters, the North-central Cluster contained unique pockets of aggregation in the form of multiple-pit-structure habitations. These multiple-habitation sites produced perhaps the most variable and least cohesive assemblage of Pueblo I features and artifacts in the project area and, as such, they represent some of the most interesting sites in the area. The volume is concluded with a summary discussion of chronology, architecture, material culture, population, subsistence, and settlement within both local and regional cultural contexts.

Download or read book Animas La Plata Project written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO provided information on the status of the Animas-La Plata project, focusing on the: (1) legislative framework provided for the project by the 1988 Settlement Act and the Endangered Species Act; (2) consultation between the Bureau of Reclamation and the Fish and Wildlife Service under the Endangered Species Act; and (3) project's relationship to the Navajo Indian Irrigation Project (NIIP). GAO found that: (1) although the Fish and Wildlife Service believed that the Animas-La Plata project would jeopardize the Colorado squawfish in the San Juan River, an alternative plan to save the squawfish was adopted in 1991 which limited construction of the project to certain facilities, restricted the amount of water that could be depleted from the Animas River, and provided for a 7-year study of the Colorado squawfish and a fish recovery program; (2) construction of the project depends on successful completion and acceptance of a supplemental environmental impact statement; (3) the construction of features beyond those permitted under the alternative plan depend on the outcome of the fish study; (4) the alternative plan should include guaranteed delivery of water from the Navajo Dam and Reservoir to provide a better habitat for the squawfish population; and (5) the Navajo Nation believes that the Bureau of Reclamation's use of water from the Navajo Dam and Reservoir threatens their right to the water in the reservoir under the NIIP.

Book Animas La Plata Project  Bioarchaeology

Download or read book Animas La Plata Project Bioarchaeology written by and published by Swca Environmental Consultants. This book was released on 2006 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume XV of the Animas-La Plata series (SWCA Anthropological Research Paper No. 10) contains thirteen chapters and multiple appendixes by a multitude of authors. The introductory chapter presents the broad archaeological context of the ALP project, explains some of the terminology used in writing about the ALP skeletal remains, and briefly characterizes the nature of the assemblage with respect to basic demographics such as the age and sex distribution of the human remains recovered from the different ALP sites. The NAGPRA process through the several stages of this long-term project is described, as is its influence on data collection. The remainder of the volume presents the results of bioarchaeological data collection and analysis conducted by different analysts who address mortuary practice, paleodemography, skeletal and dental morphology, health indicators in adults and children, biological variation, and ethnicity of the basin's Pueblo I residents. The final two chapters document the methods employed in the processed human remains (PHR) analysis from Sacred Ridge, and present the results of a first analysis of these data.

Book The Social Construction of Communities

Download or read book The Social Construction of Communities written by Mark D. Varien and published by Rowman Altamira. This book was released on 2008-08-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Social Construction of Communities draws on archaeological research in the Southwest to examine how communities are created through social interaction. The archaeological record of the Southwest is important for its precise dating, exceptional preservation, large number of sites, and length of occupation—making it most intensively researched archaeological regions in the world. Taking advantage of that rich archaeological record, the contributors to this volume present case studies of the Mesa Verde, Rio Grande, Kayenta, Mogollon, and Hohokam regions. The result is an enhanced understanding of the ancient Southwest, a new appreciation for the ways in which humans construct communities and transform society, and an expanded theoretical discussion of the foundational concepts of modern social theory.
