Upper San Pedro Village
Located along the United States-Mexico Border, Upper San Pedro Village is a complex habitation site dating from approximately A.D. 650 to 1200. Houses, roasting pits and other features were located by NRI archaeologists. The site appears to be located at a convergence of a number of different Southwestern cultural traditions, including Hohokam, Dragoon, San Simon, Trincheras, Mogollon, and Mimbres. This project involved a number of federal agencies and land jurisdictions.

Northland is utilizing 3-D laser scanning, ground penetrating radar and magnetometer readings to aid in the identification of historic and prehistoric resources.
