Extensive trenching, implemented to document the nature of the settlement, revealed more than 100 pit houses within the site boundaries. Fifty-four of these structures were excavated and have been used in a detailed reconstruction of Santa Cruz phase and Sacaton phase site structure. Taken together, these sites reveal the nature of prehistoric settlement on smaller drainages within the Salt-Gila Basin. The research reported here demonstrates the extent to which such sites participated in the larger Hohokam cultural tradition.” (https://core.tdar.org/document/374970/hohokam-archaeology-along-the-salt-gila-aqueduct-central-arizona-project-volume-iv-prehistoric-occupation-of-the-queen-creek-delta  )
