2. Large-scale CRM projects Legislation spawned a great deal of archaeological projects.  National Historic Preservation Act 1966  Reservoir Salvage Act 1974 There were large projects pre-1960s, but not with the ideas of “New” Archaeology to aid research design.

3. Lower Verde Archaeological Project Lower Verde Archaeological Project (LVAP) was conducted as part of the Safety of Dams Program associated with the Central Arizona Project Archaeological investigations at 26 presumed small habitation, agricultural, and resource-procurement sites in the Horseshoe Reservoir and Bartlett Lake areas in the lower Verde River valley. Previous research inventoried cultural resources in areas to be inundated when proposed dams along the Verde River were built. A project conducted by Statistical Research, Inc. (SRI) would be the first large-scale excavation effort in the region. It allowed the researchers to study “relationships among the cultures of the lower Verde valley, other regions of central Arizona, and the Phoenix Basin; distinguishing Yavapai and Apache peoples in the archaeological record; and investigating agricultural methods, productivity, and carrying capacity”. http://www.sricrm.com/projects/lvap.html

5. Koster Archaeological site Between 1969 and 1978, archaeologists from Northwestern University excavated an extraordinary site on Theodore and Mary Koster's farm. Taught as a field school, work at Koster is responsible for training many North American Archaeologists. http://www.museum.state.il.us/muslink/nat_amer/pre/htmls/a_sites.html

6. Koster, Continued Artifacts from one of the deepest levels of the excavation (circa 8,500 years ago) document the beginnings of a more settled Archaic way of life. Many important discoveries were made here, including some of the oldest evidence of the use of ground stone for food preparation, the establishment of a cemetery for deceased members of the community, and the presence of domesticated dogs. http://www.museum.state.il.us/muslink/nat_amer/pre/htmls/a_sites.html

8. Dolores Archaeological Project Research was conducted prior to the McPhee Dam and Reservoir project, which included the Dolores Archaeological Program (DAP), the largest single archaeological project in the history of the United States. Between 1978 and 1984 researchers mapped about 1600 archaeological sites- including hunting camps, shrines, granaries, households and villages- along the Dolores River in the reservoir area, and excavated about 120 sites to salvage their information value. http://www.co.blm.gov/ahc/museum.htm

10. Tennessee Valley Authority TVA has been improving the quality of life in the Tennessee Valley through its threefold mission of providing affordable and reliable power, promoting sustainable economic development, and acting as a steward of the Valley's natural resources. Welcome to the TVA web site, where you’ll find information about the many ways in which TVA fulfills these responsibilities. We hope you find the site informative. http://www.tva.gov/

13. Environmental Archaeology Environmental archaeology is the study of past human interactions with the natural world-a world that encompasses plants, animals, and landscape. Environmental archaeology researchers attempt to reconstruct not only the ancient environments associated with archaeological sites, but also the use of those environments by people, the impact people had on the world around them, and the way ancient peoples perceived their surroundings and the plants and animals on which they relied. Environmental archaeology is traditionally divided into three subfields, including zooarchaeology (the study of animal remains), archaeobotany (the study of plant remains) and geoarchaeology (the study of the abiotic landscape). http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/envarch/whatisenvarch.htm

18. Experimental Archaeology Experimental archaeology can be divided into several categories Replication of recovered artifacts or known activities Testing methodologies/hypotheses. Contextual studies/change in sites over time. Ethnoarchaeology/studying modern culture to investigate arch phenomena. http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/archaeology/archaeology/experimental_archaeology.html
