Structure and Organization at La Ciudad (1987)
DOCUMENT Full-Text T. Kathleen Henderson.

The last decade has seen a quantum leap in our understanding of the Hohokam. From those first days of defining the Hohokam as a cultural entity, great strides have been taken in describing their subsistence and settlement systems, explicating core-periphery relationships, and modeling the processes of Hohokam development, expansion, and decline. And yet, the old adage “the faster we go, the further behind we get” seems particularly descriptive of the current state of Hohokam archaeology. While...

A Study Of Anthropomorphic Figurines In The Neolithic Of Southwest Asia And Southeastern Europe (2013)

This study attempts to examine anthropomorphic figurines of the Neolithic in Southwest Asia and Southeastern Europe through cataloged and compared physical...
