EMAP Flying Fish – LA37767 Unit 100 (East Room), 1998

Author(s): Tatsuya Murakami; Amanda Ronan; Gina Laizans

Year: 1998

Summary

The Site LA 37767 was excavated through two seasons in the summers of 1998 and 2001 by the ASU Eastern Mimbres Archaeological Project (EMAP) Field School. The goal of this project was to collect data from Mimbres Classic Period habitation rooms in order to examine the occupational and abandonment history of such site in the Eastern Mimbres area. This report summarizes the results of the excavation conducted in the east room of Unit 100 in 2001. LA 37767 is located on a basalt piedmont above the floodplain of the Arroyo Seco, a perennial stream that drains a portion of the Black Range in southwest New Mexico into the Rio Grande to the east. The site consists of multiple roomblocks; there are at least three room blocks and two or three isolated rooms spread E-W across the terrace. Research from the 1998 field season revealed that these roomblocks were occupied in multiple time periods, as evidenced by lower and upper pueblo occupations.
