SAA Bulletin 15(4): Louis Richard Caywood, 1906-1997
Obituary published in theSociety for american Archaeology newsletter. Work on Hudson Bay forts in the Northwest, mission sites in the Southwest, Meductic site in Canada, and Jamestown, made Caywood one of the early practitioners of North american historical archaeology.

Extractions: V eteran archaeologist Louis R. Caywood died of pneumonia in Globe, Ariz., on April 30, 1997, at the age of 91. He is survived by his wife of 63 years, Winifred (Brett), and sons Richard F., of Boston, and Robert L., of Phoenix. Born in Bisbee, Ariz., six years before Arizona became a state, Caywood received a BS degree in business administration in 1932 from the University of Arizona, and the following year, an MA in anthropology under the aegis of Dean Byron Cummings. In June 1934 he began a 34-year career with the National Park Service (NPS) as a temporary summer ranger at Mesa Verde. Caywood's career as a practicing archaeologist had begun in 1933 as a pioneer in the implementation of Federal Emergency Relief fieldwork at Tuzigoot, the 13th-century A.D. pueblo in the Verde Valley near Clarkdale, with Edward H. Spicer, another University of Arizona graduate student. By July 1935 the fieldwork and ruin stabilization had been completed with Civil Works Administration labor, and a 119-page illustrated report published by Caywood and Spicer through the Federal Emergency Relief Administration and NPS, the latter now Caywood's full-time employer. This stands as a speed record for excavation and publication by any unit of Federal Relief archaeology in the 1930s and 1940s. Tuzigoot became a National Monument in 1940. Continuing an enviable record of producing reports, most of them limited mimeographed issues by the NPS, Caywood supervised excavations at Fort Vancouver, Fort Spokane, and Fort Okanagan, Washington, for the western region of the NPS. In 1954-1955 he was assigned to Colonial National Historical Park to work at the site of the 17th-century English settlement at Jamestown, Virginia, and was loaned to the Jamestown 350th Anniversary Commission to excavate Governor Berkeley's Greenspring plantation house and grounds near Jamestown.
