Description:

Information about the prehistoric occupation of the Southwest Pecos Slopes physiographic region remains relatively unknown. This particular region has recenty witnessed a pronounced increase in oil-and-gas-extraction activities, nd the tract of land situated between the Black and Pecos Rivers was only just incorporated into the Permian Basin Programmatic Agreement (PA) study area. In order to improve the management abilities of the U. S. Department of the Interio Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and address critical data gaps for the region, the Carlsbad Field Offic (CFO) requested a detailed study to examine general trends in human settlement and land use across the study area.
