Small Site Architecture of Chaco Canyon, New Mexico (1986)
Chaco Canyon was made a national park to preserve and protect its spectacularly large ruins. There are about a dozen large sites in the central park area--" about a dozen," because there is considerable disagreement about the line separating the named tourist attractions ("towns") from the thousand or more smaller, largely anonymous Anasazi ruins ("small sites") that are also part of Chaco's archaeology. Some sites with names and interpretive trails are actually not that large; some of the...
Social Differentiation at Casas Grandes, Chihuahua Mexico: An Archaeological Analysis of Mortuary Practices (1984)
Excavations at Casas Grandes, Chihuahua, Mexico have produced 576 burials dating between the 12th and 14th centuries. Social differentiation was investigated among Casas Grandians by analyzing a series of burial attributes defined from the society's mortuary program. An attempt was made to determine the manner degree to which social life at Casas Grandes was hierarchically structured during the Medio Period (ca. A.D. 1060 to 1340). Specifically, the hypothesis that Casas Grandes was organized on...
The Spadefoot Toad Site: Investigations at 29SJ629 Chaco Canyon, New Mexico Vol. II (1993)
The relationship of the small houses or villages to the contemporary large towns or greathouses of the Bonito phase (A.D. 900-1150) has long provoked discussion among archeologists (e.g., Kluckhohn 1939; Vivian 1970b. 1989, 1990) and was no less intriguing to the Chaco Project staff. Although attention has generally focused on greathouses as pivotal for deciphering sociopolitical complexity during the Chacoan Phenomenon, small-house occupation and the communities in which both large and small...

Our analysis of this Nohmul chert assemblage has found evidence for local reduction of cobbles and core maintenance, as well as the production and maintenance of tools. Nohmul is situated roughly 30 kilometers from the Northern Belize Chert Bearing Zone, and the site of Colha, Belize – the argued center of lithic production in the...
