Principal Investigator
Lone Mountain Archaeological Services

Are you a Principal Investigator who would like to conduct research
and publish your contributions to the field of Southwestern
archaeology? If you are, then Lone Mountain Archaeological Services
needs you in its El Paso office! Most of our work takes place on the
vast U.S. Army Fort Bliss Air Defense Training Center, affording us
the unique opportunity to engage in substantial data recovery,
research, and analysis. The ideal candidate will have strong
organizational and analytical skills, a cultural ecology or human
behavioral archaeological perspective, West Texas, Southwest and/or
Great Basin experience, and the desire to work in one of the richest
cultural locations in the southwest. Almost 15,000 years of human
activity is documented at Fort Bliss as well as the earliest
radiocarbon date (13,020 to 12,200 B.C.) ever recorded in the Tularosa
Basin. Much has been done, but much is yet to be discovered.

Your field personnel will be supported with the highest level of
technology available in cultural resources management today. We are
constantly improving field procedures and developing survey methods
using GPS, digital photography, field computers, magnetic
susceptibility testing, TRU, and GIS. Lone Mountain has created its

immediate paperless surface assemblage surveys. Lone Mountain also
employs the latest geoarchaeological and data analysis techniques. We
conduct phosphate, protein residue, phytolith, and pollen analyses,
FTIR, and XRF studies. Immediate soils analyses are conducted in our
own lab. Applicants who are eager to help shape our research goals and
aren't afraid to explore new techniques are especially sought. Dogged
persistence and practical problem solving are required attributes.

All applicants must meet the qualifications for Archaeologists
contained in the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines
for Archaeology and Historic Preservation (48 FR 44720-44726).
Applicants should have a graduate degree in anthropology, archaeology,
or a related field, and at least five (5) years of supervisory
experience. Of total work experience, at least two years must have
been in the southwest (Southern California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado,
Arizona, New Mexico, West Texas). Applicants should also be able to
document the successful completion of at least two research projects
and at least one (1) regional or national level publication on
cultural resources. GIS experience is an asset.

Lone Mountain is offering a competitive salary ranging from $50,000 to
$60,000.00 with paid health and dental insurance, a 401K, two weeks of
paid time off, and ten Federal holidays per year. Employment is
dependent upon the acceptance of the applicant's qualifications by
Fort Bliss. Please send CV with references to Tim Church, Lone
