Day describes finding ruins and discovering bones.BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Sam Day, Sr. (1845-1925) arrived in Arizona in 1883 to survey extensions to eastern and southern boundaries of the Navajo reservation for the federal government. At the time his wife, Anna, and their three boys Sam, Jr. (1889-1944), Charles Day (1879-1918) and William remained in Colorado. The family joined Sam, Sr. in Arizona, where they staked out a homestead at Cienaga (Sinagee). He was elected to the Arizona Territorial Legislature in 1906 and served two terms in the Arizona House. From 1920 until his death in 1925 he held the post of United States Indian Commissioner. Sam, Sr., moved from Sinagee in 1901. His Sinagee ranch became part of the St. Michaels Mission. He joined son Charlie at Bill Meadows trading post, but eventually moved to the mouth of Canyon de Chelly and with his sons, Sam, Jr. and William, established what was to become the famous Thunderbird Trading Post.Sam's sons also entered into the Indian trade. Charlie operated the Meadows trading post until his untimely death in an automobile accident in 1918. Charles was known for his strong interest in documenting Navajo culture. He took photographs as well as created field recordings. He served as Edward S. Curtis' interpreter during the photographers trip to the reservation. In 1903 Charlie was appointed custodian of Canyon De Chelly and Canyon del Muerto.Sam Day Jr., second son of Samuel Sr., in addition to his work as an Indian trader, served as United States deputy marshal. Sam Day Jr. married Kate Roanhorse daughter of chief Manuelito, in 1912. He, like his brother became submersed in Navajo culture. He participated in a University of Arizona archaelogical dig in 1926 and helped facilitate other university expeditions.

This article provides new research data resulting from an analysis of Holocene deposits excavated at the far end of south chamber in Denisova Cave. 1.6 m thick strata were examined in an area of 12 square meters. Lithological Layers 0, 2, and the upper part of Layer 3, have mostly yielded the pottery fragments dated to the Early Iron Age. The vessels were decorated with rows of pits, "pearls", impressions produced by the corner section of a spatula, and with an affixed smooth or dissected band. A stemmed bone arrowhead with an octagonal cross-section has been associated with this complex as well. The pottery vessel fragments from the lower part of Layer 3 ornamented with impressions of the vertically positioned comb stamp were attributed to the Middle Bronze Age. Pottery found in the same part of the stratigraphic section and Layers 4 and 5 shows features typical of the Afanasievo culture dating back to the Early Bronze Age. The pottery dishware was decorated with a zigzag pattern, imprints from a cord and obliquely arranged sticks, inclined impressions of a smooth or combed stamp, and horizontal grooves. The lithic inventory associated with the Afanasievo complex includes a carefully treated bifacial stemmed arrowhead, crescent-shaped knife, scrapers of various types, retouched flakes, and large pebble tools. Scarcely represented lithic tools, including the fragments of insets from Layer 8, may be attributed to the early Holocene. In general, the 2021 excavations showed that, during the Bronze and Iron Ages, humans inhabited the dark and narrow areas of the cave far from its entrance just as actively as the relatively bright and spacious parts of the site.
