He also directed a research project funded by the National Science Foundation in 1960–1961 and afterwards led "salvage" digs conducted by volunteers, as late as the 1980s. The "salvage" digs were highly disturbing to the cultural site, leading to complete destruction of historic Pueblo kivas and pottery. The poor planning, excavating, and over-"archeological" study has proven to be far more destructive to the sites long-term health and has led to much scrutiny within the Pueblo community. In 1979, UNM anthropology professor Linda Cordell directed a surface sampling, mapping, and testing program at the site. In 2003 UNM began an effort to reorganize the site collections and publish detailed accounts of the fieldwork. In late 2012 UNM deeded the land comprising the "site" to the Isleta Pueblo.
