A Cultural Resource Survey of Wildlife Oases Monitoring Plots Located Along Reaches 6 and 9 of the Granite Reef Aqueduct, Central Arizona Project

Under contract with the Bureau of Reclamation, the Office of Cultural Resource Management (OCRM), Department of Anthropology, Arizona State University, completed an archaeological survey of Wildlife Oases Monitoring Plots along Reaches 6 and 9 of the Granite Reef Aqueduct. Five monitoring plots were located along each reach. No sites and only 3 isolated occurrences were identified during the survey. Results suggest that the project area was part of a secondary resource zone, an area which apparently did not support a permanent population, but was utilized intermittently, probably on a seasonal basis.

受美国垦务局（Bureau of Reclamation）委托，亚利桑那州立大学（Arizona State University）人类学系文化资源管理办公室（Office of Cultural Resource Management，简称OCRM）完成了花岗岩礁渡槽（Granite Reef Aqueduct）第6段与第9段沿线野生绿洲监测样地的考古调查。本次调查覆盖的两段沿线各设有5处监测样地，调查期间未发现考古遗址，仅识别出3处孤立遗存点。结果显示，本项目区域属于次级资源带，该区域显然未支撑永久性定居人口，仅被间歇性利用，推测为季节性使用。
