Hohokam canals as multi-use facilities: Pre-historic canal system in the central Arizona-Phoenix metropolitan area

This is the digitized version of a map of the Hohokam canal system in what is now the Phoenix metropolitan area. It is based on the thesis research by J. B. Howard (Howard, J. (1990). Paleohydraulics : techniques for modeling the operation and growth of prehistoric canal systems. Thesis (M.A.)--Arizona State University, 1990). The original paper map is based on previous archaeological data, overlayed onto USGS 7.5 minute quadrangle maps to recreate the canal pattern.
