Mogollon Prehistoric Landscapes Project (MPLP)
The Mogollon Prehistoric Landscapes Project, co-directed by Drs. Margaret Nelson and Karen Schollmeyer from 2007-2013 (with Dr. Steve Swanson as a co-director in 2007-2008). MPLP built upon earlier work by Nelson and Dr. Michelle Hegmon as part of the Eastern Mimbres Archaeological Project (EMAP). The project is based in the School of Human Evolution and Social Change at Arizona State University and the collections are housed at ASU's Center for Archaeology and Society. MPLP focuses on understanding social connections and land use during the Postclassic period (A.D. 1130-1400+) in the Mimbres area of the Mogollon region in southwest New Mexico. This collection includes all the excavation records from the project.
