For over 15 years, Mexican and American archaeologists and students have dug ancient ruins, walked the high desert landscape, and worked in laboratories to understand the rise and fall of La Quemada, Zacatecas. We want to know why societies become complex, developing social hierarchies with specialized economic, political, and religious roles for their members. Why do civilizations expand? Northern Mexico's ancient past is an ideal context for studying these questions. During the period A.D....

Until recently, most of what was known about the prehistoric use and conveyance of obsidian in the Great Basin was derived from analysis of time-sensitive artifacts recovered from caves and rockshelters. Over the past 35 years, however, archaeological research conducted in high-altitude settings has provided new insights about synchronic and diachronic patterning unique from many lowland assemblages. This paper will present the results of obsidian provenance analysis from sites in the White...

Two obsidian flakes were recovered from Site 118X77, which is located in Nahanni National Park Reserve in southwest Northwest Territories, Canada. The flakes were submitted for protein residue analysis to identify possible processed animal proteins. The flakes were also submitted for obsidian sourcing to determine where the flake materials originated.

This entire volume is devoted to research undertaken on the Chaco Phenomenon. Most of the papers herein were presented at two symposia sponsored by the National Park Service's Chaco Center at the Society for American Archaeology Annual Meetings in San Diego in May 1981. The symposia were titled "Past Environment and Subsistence at Chaco Canyon, New Mexico," chaired by William Gillespie, and "Chacoan Prehistory: The Implications of a Regional Perspective, chaired by myself. The purpose of the...

This paper examines an obsidian cache offering excavated near the corner of a Postclassic Maya platform structure in Nojpeten, on the island of Flores, Guatemala. The cache consists of approximately 190 obsidian prismatic blade cores and core fragments, but the original number of cores placed in the cache likely fell between 173 and 182, with a best estimate of 177, 178, or 180. The cores were found about 20 cm southwest of the structure in a circular concentration measuring approximately 35 cm...
