  NPS Archeology Program: Technical Brief 2
The Archaeology Group's efforts culminated in the legislative establishment of Homolovi Ruins State Park in 1986, the first archeological park to be operated by the Arizona State Parks Board, and for which an innovative interpretive approach is planned.
The "Volunteers in Archaeology" award is sponsored to honor an individual who has contributed his or her time and energy to promoting the protection and preservation of Arizona's archeological resources through public education or other means.
Archaeology Week is now a regular event in Arizona and our progress in cultural resources programs and public awareness has convinced us that other states could benefit from similar programs, perhaps a national Archaeology Week similar to the current National Historic Preservation Week.

 Landscape Archaeology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Archaeology provides invaluable tools for examining such processes, and we can provide morphological and environmental data on past landscapes that are available from no other sources.
Landscape archaeology thus involves the use of archaeological, documentary, and oral history evidence to study and interpret the ways past peoples shaped their landscapes through the deployment of cultural and social practices, and the ways, in turn, that such people were influenced, motivated, or constrained by their natural surroundings.
The archaeological evidence utilized in landscape archaeology ranges across a continuum of methods including the uses of satellite and aerial imagery, ground surface surveys, topographic modeling, stratigraphic excavations, geomorphology assessments, paleoethnobotany analysis, macrofloral and microfloral studies, and ground penetrating prospection technologies.

Johnson, William Gray, May 1986 - THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE GREEN SWAMP: A PREDICTIVE MODEL FOR A SWAMP ENVIRONMENT Abstract: A number of archaeological surveys have been conducted in the Green Swamp but little has been done with site location predictive models.
Using data from other models, several environmental characteristics were chosen as likely predictors of high, medium and low probability areas for archaeological site locations.
Thus, a model incorporating archaeological site types and their associated environmental characteristics was created for this swamp environment.
