description: Archaeological testing was conducted in seven parcels of private land in two contiguous areas in and near the large prehistoric village known as the Cashion Site, AZ T:11:39 (ASM). The area is planned for development that will result in impacts to cultural resources. Part of the project area was nominated to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) because it includes the approximate location of the prehistoric site, but the boundary of the area nominated was arbitrarily drawn using section lines and does not reflect the exact boundaries of the site or the actual distribution of cultural resources. The testing program was designed to refine the boundary definition of the site as well as to locate areas with human burials and mortuary objects to facilitate compliance with ARS 41-865. Testing identified several areas within the proposed development that still retained intact prehistoric deposits including burials. A proposed plan for the treatment of these historic properties is presented. The results of testing also indicated that most of the project area lacked intact prehistoric contexts and no further archaeological treatment is recommended for those areas.
