Whiptail Ruin (AZ BB:10:3 [ASM]): A Classic Period Community in the Northeastern Tucson Basin [No. 203]In the 1960s and 1970s, Arizona Archaeological and Historical Society volunteers, University of Arizona students, and Pima Community College students excavated Whiptail Ruin, a mid- to late A.D. 1200s village in the northeastern Tucson Basin. This volume presents the results of analyses of the notes and artifacts from work at that site. The village may have been home to hunting specialists. Artiodactyl remains were “stored” in structures in a manner similar to that described for historic O’odham hunting practices. Pottery and lithics from the site show that its residents had strong ties to the Tucson area, as well as to migrants from the Mogollon highlands who moved into the San Pedro Valley in the thirteenth century. And, of interest to chronologists of the region, Whiptail Ruin is one of the first sites in the Tucson Basin to be tree-ring dated. In addition to providing scholars with usable data, the research detailed in this volume shows that information mined from old, archived projects can be relevant and important to today’s archaeological questions.

Hohokam Archaeology Along Phase B of the Tucson Aqueduct Central Arizona Project, Volume 3: Excavations at Water World (AZ AA:16:94) - A Rillito Phase Ballcourt Village in the Avra Valley [No. 178, Vol. 3]During 1986 and 1987 archaeologists from the Cultural Resource Management Division, Arizona State Museum, University of Arizona, excavated a Rillito phase Hohokam settlement that lay in the right-of-way for the Tucson Aqueduct Phase B, Central Arizona Project. Known as Water World (AZ AA:16:94 ASM), the site is located at the southern end of the Avra Valley on the distal end of a lower bajada of the Tucson Mountains. One hundred and forty-seven features were identified by backhoe trenching and surface stripping, including 45 structures. Fifty-nine features were investigated: 21 structures, a ballcourt, 14 pits or hearths, 21 cremations, a midden deposit, and potbreak. The features were divided into seven house groups, a ballcourt area, and a possible central plaza. The artifactual, nonartifactual, and site structure data suggest that Water World was a formalized ballcourt village that was probably occupied permanently for a relatively short period of time during the Rillito phase (A.O. 700 to 900) of the Colonial period. It is also possible that the site's population increased during the winter months, when residents subsisted on stored food supplies. Water World is located in a nonriverine environment where floodwater farming potential should have been very good. There are, however, tentative hints that agriculture may not have been as intensively practiced as expected. Furthermore, the apparent paucity of the ritual and ceremonial objects that were also expected at a ballcourt site brings into question how the site may have functioned in local Hohokam economic organization.
