    DOCUMENT Full-Text Todd Howell.

    The 1988 Arizona State University Archaeological Field School under the direction of Dr. Keith Kintiqh was held at the privately-owned Hinkson ranch just southwest of the Zuni Indian Reservation. The Hinkson ranch holds qreat research potential because of a dense prehistoric occupation (primarily Pueblo II & III) that has been relatively undisturbed by pothuntinq or other destructive processes. If the great house and great kiva of the Hinkson Complex were built and occupied after the collapse...

  • Ojo Bonito Archaeological Project: 1988 Report of Investigations of Prehistoric Gridded Fields (1988)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Andrew Black.

    The 1988 OBAP agricultural survey project has produced a greater understanding of the extensive network of gridded fields in the lower Zuni drainage. Structural studies have shown that walls are generally constructed of large basalt cobbles and placed in loose, single course linear alignments. Walls do not intrude deeply into present soils, and seem to have had little input into the creation of field soils. Environmental data indicate that conditions along the mesa slopes may be more...

  • Post-Chacoan Social Integration at the Hinkson Site, New Mexico (1996)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Keith Kintigh. Todd Howell. Andrew Duff.

    The century following the collapse of Chaco is often viewed as a time of cultural backsliding. However, imposing sites with Chaco-inspired public architecture provide evidence of large communities, dating between A.D. 1200 and 1275, that laid the organizational foundations of well-known Pueblo IV towns. This article reports on excavations at one such Zuni-area settlement. the Hinkson site. In this site, 32 residential room blocks surround a great house complex that includes an unroofed, oversize...

  • The Process of Aggregation in the Post-Chacoan Era: A Case Study from the Lower Zuni Region (1995)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Suzanne Eckert.

    During the post-Chacoan period (A.D. I 175- 1225) the first aggregated sites in the Zuni Region of the American Southwest were built. This research examines a shift in regional settlement patterns and the reorganization of sociopolitical systems during this initial period of aggregation in the lower Zuni River region. A chronology for the post-Chacoan settlements in the case study area is built using ceramic type data. The results suggest that the process of aggregation in the Zuni region can...
