Sand Canyon Pueblo (Colo.) Ancestral Pueblo culture Archaeology--North America
The research at Sand Canyon Pueblo (Site 5MT765) was a major component of the Crow Canyon Archaeological Center's Sand Canyon Archaeological Project. This project also included intensive excavations at a small site (Green Lizard) and a medium-size site (Castle Rock Pueblo), probabilistically designed test excavations at numerous small sites, intensive survey of approximately 30 km2 in the Sand Canyon locality, and paleoenvironmental modeling (Lipe 1992*1). Several published accounts cover aspects of the history of research at Sand Canyon Pueblo in the context of the larger regional project. The 1992 Sand Canyon Archaeological Project progress report (Lipe 1992*1) devotes a chapter to the excavations at Sand Canyon Pueblo (Bradley 1992*2), and various components of the larger project are described in other chapters. The primary goal of this chapter is to provide a more detailed narrative of the history of investigations at Sand Canyon Pueblo than is currently available. Secondarily, the chapter will briefly relate this research to the larger contexts provided by the Sand Canyon Archaeological Project.
