Excerpt from Annual Report on the Archeological Programs of the Western Region: Calendar Year 1977 This is the 1977 Annual Report for the Western Archeological Center, Western Region, National Park Service, U. S. Department of the Interior, and the sixth since the Center was restructured and moved from Globe, Arizona, to Tucson, Arizona, in July 1971. National Park Service directives require that each area will report annually, through its regional office, the accomplishments, completion of goals, projects and other data relative to the area's respective mission. The report documents expenditures to assure allocated monies have been spent for previously authorized projects, and were used wisely and productively. In addition to satisfying legal requirements, this report is an historical chronicle of each year's events. It documents knowledge gained in the field of cultural resource management and conservation through surveys, excavations, professional research, and stabilization and preservation of both historic and prehistoric structures, and objects. The report also informs park management of the archeological and materials preservation assistance available to support work of individual parks, the regional offices, and the Denver Service Center.

This is the first volume specifically dedicated to the consolidation and clarification of Heritage Studies as a distinct field with its own means of investigation. It presents the range of methods that can be used and illustrates their application through case studies from different parts of the world, including the UK and USA. The challenge that the collection makes explicit is that Heritage Studies must develop a stronger recognition of the scope and nature of its data and a concise yet explorative understanding of its analytical methods. The methods considered fall within three broad categories: textual/discourse analysis, methods for investigating people’s attitudes and behaviour; and methods for exploring the material qualities of heritage. The methods discussed and illustrated range from techniques such as text analysis, interviews, participant observation, to semiotic analysis of heritage sites and the use of GIS. Each paper discusses the ways in which methods used in social analysis generally are explored and adapted to the specific demands that arise when applied to the investigation of heritage in its many forms. Heritage Studies is a seminal volume that will help to define the field. The global perspective and the shared focus upon the development of reflexive methodologies ensure that the volume explores these central issues in a manner that is simultaneously case-specific and of general relevance.
