Abstract

The fieldwork for this site was conducted by Carl Miller in 1936 and by Isabel T. Kelly in 1937-1938. Isabel Kelly wrote an uncompleted manuscript for her and Miller's excavations at the Hodges site near Tucson. Officer, Haury, and Hartmann completed it 40 years later using the manuscript, her notes and the artifacts that could be located. The Hodges site is part of a larger village site. In many respects it is similar to Snaketown, execpt that no trash mounds or irrigation canals were found. The artifacts are described and typed and the human remains are described. The artifact typologies from this site have been used in the Tucson basin for decades.
