Abstract |
"This publication is intentionally 'different' from other archaeological overviews, referred to as Class I overviews, because our intended audience extends beyond land managers. Monument officials and the Colorado Plateau Archaeological Alliance (CPAA) have long shared a conviction that preservation of archaeological resources can be fostered only when the public understands and appreciates the scientific value of those resources. In effect, the public cannot fully embrace preservation if they have little or no understanding of the importance of archaeological resources, especially if those resources might lack perceived visual appeal. This monograph, revised from a more technical report (Spangler et al. 2019), is intended to be intelligible, informative, and enjoyable to the general public, while also being useful to land managers in the future"--Page 4. |
