DescriptionFrom an article published Monday, April 4th in the Tempe Daily News:At Last Look -
Exposed walls of what was apparently a pueblo-type dwelling of the HoHoKam Indians here sometime in the 1300 to 1400 AD period were to be covered over today - along with many other discoveries made by ASU's Anthropology Department in a week long exploration of the near McClintock and Broadway site uncovered by a construction crew 10 days ago. In background, ASU students, aided by some neighborhood children, were winding up work at the dig Sunday before turning the site back over to Beckham Construction Company today.
