Prehistoric Hilltop Sites in Central Arizona: the Question of Defense and Conflict in the Northern Hohokam Periphery (1982)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Patricia M. Spoerl. John C. Ravesloot.

Archaeological investigations by the Central Arizona Ecotone Project in the New River area form the basis for an examination of the so-called fortified sites of central Arizona. Our interpretation of the defensive role these settlements may have played in prehistoric times differs from explanations which have been proposed for fortified sites in southern Arizona. We suggest that competition and conflict over resources led to the need for various kinds of defensive settlements in the northern...
