The Hendricks-Hodge Archaeological Expedition was funded by the Museum of the American
Indian, Heye Foundation. It was one of the most extensive such projects ever conducted
in the Southwest. Zuni Indians participated in the excavation of their ancestral villages
of Hawikku and, Kechiba:wa, sometimes seen as Hawikuh and Kechipauan. Sophisticated
archaeological techniques led to the excavation of thousands of artifacts.
Field notes, some loose, some in notebooks, and original manuscript texts regarding
Hawikuh portion of the expedition. Three notebooks of Edwin Francis Coffin Notes on
the Hawikuh site include lists of the burials and objects from the burial sites, maps
and diagrams, language translations, presumably for helping to communicate with Zuni
workers, architectural notes, forms of burial, types of bones, plant remains, Manuscripts
and notes on pottery, the Plaza Trench, Square Kiva, and the cities of Cibola. Correspondence
and photocopies to and from Thea Heye, Harry Shusta, Louis Chavez, and the Indian
Temperance Union. Several photographs of the dig site and artifacts with captions
and notes for publication. Also included are photocopies and a printed catalog of
Cambridge University's Ketchipaun documentation of the expedition, from 1986. Copies
