The Process of Aggregation in the Post-Chacoan Era: A Case Study from the Lower Zuni Region (1995)
During the post-Chacoan period (A.D. I 175- 1225) the first aggregated sites in the Zuni Region of the American Southwest were built. This research examines a shift in regional settlement patterns and the reorganization of sociopolitical systems during this initial period of aggregation in the lower Zuni River region. A chronology for the post-Chacoan settlements in the case study area is built using ceramic type data. The results suggest that the process of aggregation in the Zuni region can...
