Abstract
University Indian Ruin (UIR), located in the eastern Tucson Basin, is a prime example of a Classic period Hohokam platform mound archaeological site. The extent of the UIR site has long been understood to stretch beyond its administrative boundaries. This research investigated the UIR site boundary using Identification Testing and provided a new, larger border to the site. Results from surface and subsurface investigations also indicated a longer occupation at University Indian Ruin than was previously understood – stretching back to at least the Pre-Classic period. Collaboration with local residents on the project led to the donation of artifacts from a private residence that improved the conclusions presented here.
