ANNOUNCEMENT – JTAH Volume 8, Article 2

Greetings.  The Journal of Texas Archeology and History is pleased to announce the publication of an excellent History article by Seth Sampson, an archeologist with the US Army Corps of Engineers entitled, “Living with Live Ordnance: A Grazing Privilege Lease on the Wingate Ordnance Reserve Depot (McKinley County, New Mexico)”.  Sampson’s article on historic archeology and historic research is a fine example of a multi-discipline research project. The article expertly interweaves archeological field data, detailed historic analysis of artifacts and features, detailed historic research, and the use of LIDAR and historic aerial imagery. This is a valuable research contribution to northwestern New Mexico and anywhere researchers are investigating similar historic resources, especially when overlapping active or former military installations.  We hope you will enjoy reading this well-written article and its many useful illustrations.  To access the full-color digital article simply CLICK HERE where you may read, download, and print.
