Abstract
The Dos Tanques, Dos Fuentes locality is a low lying area of Cedar Mesa in the southern part of the Bears Ears NM, in SE Utah. This report is on the archaeology of that area and in particular the results of fieldwork carried out in 1991. “The Cedar Mesa Project” (CMP) was an archaeological project initiated in 1971 (Lipe and Matson 1971, Matson 1991:73- 101), directed by William Lipe and me and funded by the National Science Foundation in 1972 (Lipe and Matson 1972) and 1974 (Lipe and Matson 1974). We ran large field projects in 1972 through late 1975 (Matson and Lipe 1975, 1978, Matson, Lipe and Haase, 1988, 1990). A closely related contract project was directed by Lipe in 1976 (Lipe, Matson and Powers (1977). This project provided the impetus for a variety of other archaeological researches in later years, continuing into the 2020s. The Dos Tanques, Dos Fuentes (DTDF or Dos Tanques) investigation consisted of fieldwork in 1991 and a short visit in 1992 all funded by a grant to Matson and Dohm in 1991 by the Canadian Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) (Matson and Dohm 1990, Matson and Dohm 1994).
