Abstract: "San Xavier to San Agustin is an overview of the archaeology, history, and ethnography of an 8-mile section of the Santa Cruz River valley near Tucson, Arizona. The overview was prepared as part of a feasibility study for the Paseo de las Iglesias project, a joint undertaking of Pima County (Arizona) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Los Angeles District. Paseo de las Iglesias, "Walk of the Churches," will restore cultural and natural resources along a riverine corridor that has played a fundamental role in the history of Tucson. As a major focus of prehistoric and protohistoric Native American settlement, and as an early and sustained focus of Euroamerican settlement, the section of the Santa Cruz River from Mission San Xavier del Bac to Mission San Agustin del Tucson has witnessed nearly every aspect of the human presence in southern Arizona."--BOOK JACKET.
