Old Yuma : An Archaeological Testing Program of Twelve Downtown Parcels

Yuma, Arizona was home to the Quechan Indians, who encountered Colorado during his quest for gold. It was a stop on the trail to California traveled by American soldiers during the Mexican-American war, & steamboats carrying gold-seeking 49'ers plied the Colorado River past the city. Such fascinating facts are detailed in this volume, which describes archaeological testing in downtown Yuma. Photographs, maps, & artifact drawings richly illustrate the city's historic past.Sterner, Matthew A. is the author of 'Old Yuma : An Archaeological Testing Program of Twelve Downtown Parcels', published 1990 under ISBN 9781879442214 and ISBN 1879442213.
