EMAP Pague Well - LA130191 Unit 30, 2001

Summary

Site LA130191, also known as Pague Well Village, was test excavated in the summer of 2001 by the ASU Eastern Mimbres Archaeological Project. The goal of this project was to collect data from Classic period (A.D. 1000- 1130) Mimbres habitation rooms and associated cultural areas to increase understanding of the occupational and abandonment history of such sites in the Eastern Mimbres area. LA 130191 is located on a low first terrace above the floodplain on the south side of the Seco drainage, a locally perennial stream which drains a portion of the Black Range of southwest New Mexico into the Rio Grande to the east. The site consists of at least six room blocks and two large artifact scatters, which may be possible midden areas or specialized activity areas. During the 2001 field season, one room was excavated in Roomblock B, located on the southern and upslope portion of the terrace, and Roomblock D, on the northern end of the terrace. A second room in Roomblock B was partially excavated, and one of the artifact scatters adjacent to Roomblock D, Unit 30, was also tested. This summary describes the excavation of Unit 30, a specialized activity area located north of Roomblock D, along the edge of the terrace ·over looking the Seco.
