Center of Southwest Studies

Introduction/ Scope and contents

These are papers and printed materials compiled and created by the late Alden Hayes pertaining to archaeology in the Four Corners region of the Southwest U.S. including many published and unpublished reports by various authors. Areas of focus include Mesa Verde National Park, Chimney Rock Archaeological Area, Chaco Canyon, and National Park service works.


Biographical note

Alden Hayes was a prominent southwestern archaeologist.  As Gary Matlock, Supervisory Archaeologist (Ret.) of the U.S. Forest Service wrote in his appraisal of the textual portions of the Hayes collection, Mr. Hayes worked for most of his career "as a researcher for the National Park Service and supervised or worked on a number of major excavation and research projects for them."  Those projects included the Wetherill Mesa Project and others mentioned in the scope and contents note above.


Administrative information

Arrangement note: The series and boxes are numbered consecutively.  Because we do not expect to add to this collection, the boxes are numbered in one single numbering scheme starting with 1.  Arrangement within series 3 is chronological by the date of the creation of the document, with series 1 and 2 being arranged alphabetically by place name and author name, respectively.

Acquisition information:  Alden C. Hayes designated the Center of Southwest Studies as the repository for his library of books, manuscripts, research notes, personal correspondence, photos and other miscellaneous materials.  Mr. Hayes donated the papers to the Center of Southwest Studies on April 13, 1962; the accession number is 1999:03001. 

Processing informationGretchen Gray arranged and described the collection in the fall of 2007. This guide was drafted and edited by Todd Ellison, Certified Archivist, Center of Southwest Studies, in January of  2006 (last updated November 2007).
