The End of Casas Grandes: The Legacy of Charles C. Di Peso Fifty Years after the Joint Casas Grandes Project
Author(s): David A. Phillips, Jr.
Year: 2009
Summary
Charles Di Peso believed that Paquime, the primary center for the Casas Grandes culture, succumbed to an attack in A.D. 1340. He further argued that the culture survived in the Sierra Madre, where it was encountered by early Spanish military adventurers. Other reviews of the data have come to different conclusions. In this essay, I examine and discuss the available chronometric data.
