description: This volume results from archaeological investigations conducted by the Center for Archaeological Research, The University of Texas at San Antonio, under a contract with the Rocky Mountain Regional Office of the National Park Service. The investigations were designed to mitigate the impact caused by the construction of a Soil Conservation Service floodwater retarding structures in the area of site 41BX228. The excavations conducted at 41BX228 followed a research design prepared by the authors and other Center staff. The approaches, methodologies, and techniques are detailed in this report. A major objective was the study of burned rock middens at the site. A variety of new data on the burned rock midden problem was obtained and co-authored Black has also presented here a comprehensive overview of burned rock midden studies in this region.
