Directionality and Exclusivity of Plains-Pueblo Exchange During the Protohistoric Period (A.D. 1450-1700)

Author(s): Kathryn Leonard

Year: 2000

Summary

The author investigates Plains-Pueblo exchange using macroscopic petrographic data regarding the temper of Glaze Ware sherds recovered from 63 archaeological sites on the Llano Estacado escarpment of the Texas Panhandle. The sites are in two geographic areas commonly associated with distinct archaeological complexes, Tierra Blanca and Garza. The results of the analysis suggest that Plains groups maintained highly exclusive trade ties with specific Pueblos and that the geographic directionality of these ties differed between the two complexes.
