DOCUMENT Full-Text Nicola Hunt. Kolleen M. Kralick.

Archaeological survey in the Gila National Forest during June and July 1989 by the State University of New York at Buffalo was a continuation of previous archaeological field projects (Nelson 1982, 1983, 1985, 1988) intended to increase existing information about prehistoric occupation of the east side of the Black Range, New Mexico.

EMAP (1991) Classic Mimbres Iconography: An Investigation of Style, Symbol, and Meaning (1991)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Diane Stoffel.

The subject of this analysis of stylistic variation is the pottery known as Classic Mimbres Black on White, specifically the naturalistic bowls, which display images of animals and/or humans. In an effort to locate and identify some meaningful signifiers within the iconographic repertoire of the Mimbres culture, the approach of pattern recognition is utilized. A number of design elements were chosen upon completion of a preliminary study which showed promise of demonstrating some...

EMAP (1992) Preliminary Analysis of Archaeobotanical Samples from 83NM400, 85NM612, 85NM613, Palomas Creek Drainage, Sierra County, New Mexico (1992)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Michael Diehl.

The purpose of this analysis is to assess the diet breadth and intensity of species use of prehistoric Mogollones by examining archaeobotanical samples from three archaeological sites, 83NM400, 85NM612, and 85NM613. These sites are situated along Palomas Creek, an intermittent stream which flows only after significant precipitation, and locally near springs. To date, fifty samples from floor features (storage pits, hearths, and interiors of ceramic vessels) have been analyzed. Analysis of...

EMAP (1995) Archaeological research on the Ladder Ranch (1995)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Margaret C. Nelson. Michelle Hegmon.

How do human beings cope with their natural and social environments and how do they impact those environments? These issues are of great concern today, and they have been for thousands of years. Hunters and gatherers, farmers, and urban dwellers all must be concerned with their surroundings and how they are using their environment. Their success or failure, their very survival, depends on their interactions with others and with their landscape. Research on the Ladder Ranch traces the Mimbres...

EMAP (1995) Report to the National Geographic Society on Activities Conducted Under Grant 4551-91 (1995)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Uploaded by: Sarah Klassen

National Geographic Society grant 5213-94 has supported research examining the impact of population dispersion and reorganization in the prehistoric Puebloan Southwest. During the 11th through 14th centuries in the Mimbres region of southwestern New Mexico, large villages were abandoned and population reorganized into small, dispersed pueblos. The shifts in land use and social organization that emerged with this change were examined. Three objectives were pursued: 1) Documentation of regional...


EMAP (1996) Regional, Social, and Economic reorganization The Mimbres (1996)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Michelle Hegmon. Margaret C. Nelson.

The North American Southwest is an excellent landscape for the study of small scale societies. Sites are visible and well preserved as a result of the aridity and limited modern development in most regions. This aridity, however, posed challenges to prehistoric societies. Our research in the eastern Mimbres area of southwestern New Mexico examines prehistoric land use, challenging some of the basic assumptions that have guided understanding of Mimbres prehistory and the strategies of small...

DOCUMENT Full-Text Margaret C. Nelson. Michelle Hegmon.

EMAP has made great strides toward understanding the diverse options employed by prehistoric, arid-land farmers in the eastern Mimbres area. This knowledge provides valuable insights about how populations of different sizes organize their communities, and raises equally interesting questions about how sustainable adaptations are accomplished. EMAP has made outstanding discoveries, new to the field of Mimbres archaeology. We have discovered a new Mimbres adaptation, undocumented until our work on...
