Abstract
Archaeological excavations at Santa Rosa Wash (northern Papago Indian Reservation) Arizona disclosed the existence of at least one large prehistoric water reservoir constructed about A.D. 1000. The methods and inferences which support this identification are reviewed. Particular attention is given to a functional reconstruction of the reservoir. Attention is also directed to the possible existence of other such structures in the desert areas of southern Arizona.Keywords
