2013. Historic Archaeology in Arizona, a Research Guide, Sixth Revised Edition, June 2013. Arizona State Parks Board
From introduction: "Historical archaeology examines human behavior through material remains (artifacts) and the written record (archival research), incorporating concepts from multiple disciplines, such as history, geography, and ethnography. Through the interaction of material remains and available archival records, historical archaeologists seek to document the fabric of everyday life, while simultaneously contributing to the understanding of regional social development. The Historical Archaeology Advisory Committee (HAAC), with assistance from the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and Governor’s Archaeology Advisory Council (GAAC), has compiled Historical Archaeology in Arizona: A Research Guide to provide information on conducting archival research in Arizona. It is intended to serve as a resource guide for state and federal agencies and cultural resource management (CRM) firms planning to conduct archaeological, historical, and architectural studies that will be reviewed by SHPO. The general public is also encouraged to take advantage of this guide when conducting archival research for personal projects and tasks." Funding was provided in part by a 2012 Historic Preservation Fund grant administered by the Arizona State Historic Preservation Office (project number AZ-12-001, grant number 04-12-41909) and the State, Tribal, and Local Plans and Grants Division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
