History:
This collection was made by Gwinn Vivian and Robert Buettner in 1970 and March and April of 1971, during testing for prehistoric roads and water control features such as canals. The collection includes ceramics, lithics, and archaeological samples. Presumably this collection was made under a permit to Arizona State Museum, but there are no records regarding a permit. A portion of this collection was received by the park in 1982; the rest remained on loan to ASM until 1993. The 1982 material was accessioned as No. 464. The 1993 material was incorrectly accessioned as a new collection, No. 661. On January 4, 2005, the ANCS records were changed to the correct accession number, 464.
