Summary

This is an abstract from the "Social Interaction and Networks at the Intersection of Central Mesa Verde and Chaco/Cibola Culture Areas in the Middle San Juan River Valley" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Ceramic analysis of older collections from the Sterling Site on the San Juan River reveal local and imported types from Cibola-Chaco, Chuska Valley, and northern San Juan districts. Pottery suggests active interaction between populations from three adjacent districts in the period AD 900-1300.
