Platform Mounds of the Arizona Desert: An Experiment in Organizational Complexity (1993)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Glen E. Rice. Charles Redman.

Platform mounds were built by the prehistoric Salado and Hohokam people of southern Arizona from the 13th through the 15th century A.O., the Classic period. They are basically artificial, flat-topped hills on which the ruling families of the day built their homes. Additional residences and storage rooms were built around the base of a mound, and the whole was enclosed within a compound wall. Each mound was the administrative, ceremonial, and economic center for a small-scale political system,...

DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings.

Stratigraphic pollen samples were examined from two archaeological sites in the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Area — 5LA5255 (the Sue Site) and 5LA5846 (Carved Rock Hill). The stratigraphic pollen record was analyzed to provide a description of paleoenvironmental conditions at both sites. In addition, the data gathered from this stratigraphic examination of the Sue Site will be compared with a previous stratigraphic study at that site. Botanical materials recovered during dry screening at the Sue...


POLLEN, PHYTOLITH, AND MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AT 42KA3426, UTAH (1990)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings.

Pollen, phytolith, and macrofloral samples were analyzed from 42KA3426 to contribute to the interpretation of the nature of the site. The occupation was radiocarbon dated to 520 ± 60 BP, which yields a calibrated age of AD 1330-1430, with a mean of AD 1380 ± 50. This occupation is post- Pueblo in age and contained no diagnostic artifacts. Located within the Southern Paiute homeland and within a few miles of the Navajo Reservation, the site contained three hearths and/or fire-cracked rock...

Pottery type images for the western Tabasco Coastal Plain (2008)
IMAGE Christopher von Nagy.

This set of images documents common ceramics types found at La Venta, Tabasco. The examples here were recovered from San Andrés (Barí 1), a subsidiary elite community in the Lower La Venta area of the flood plain. The ceramics at San Andrés demonstrate a range of states from refired and eroded to well-preserved. The type images presented here are of generally well-preserved examples. These types are defined in my dissertation (von Nagy 2003), and will receive full treatment in a forth coming...
