Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents the archaeological work conducted at Coyote Ruin (NA 6654), a Prescott Culture site located northeast of Prescott Valley, Arizona. The field work for this project involved survey, mapping, excavation, and recording of rock art, followed by extensive analysis and write-up of the features and artifacts. Work began in November 1998 and concluded in April 2004 using volunteers from the Yavapai Chapter of the Arizona Archaeological Society. Data recovered indicates Coyote Ruin represents a record of human occupation from perhaps the A.D. 900s until after 1300. Excavations at the site in the late 1920s are the earliest in the Prescott area for which we have documentation. Included herein is the account of J. W. Simmons who worked at the site starting in 1927. The Yavapai Chapter conducted excavations at 11 of the 26 masonry rooms, 2 of the 10 pit structures, and documented many of the agricultural and water-control features. Ceramics recovered included Prescott Gray Ware, Verde Brown, and a range of tradewares mostly from the Kayenta and Little Colorado River areas. The abundance of projectile points and bones from deer, antelope, elk, and small mammals indicated the importance of hunting for the inhabitants. Archaeo-botanical analysis documented consumption of maize, harvesting of a variety of seeds, and use of agave. The concluding chapter of the report places the pueblo into a context of 13th to 14th century occupation in the Prescott area, discusses how the Prescott Culture was organized in this period, and provides some hypotheses that need to be examined with future research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than half a century of contact between the author and the Hopi people has resulted in an unusual opportunity for long informative talks with friends from the villages. These conversations in a variety of circumstances have helped to give depth to an understanding and appreciation uncommon among persons not born and raised in the Hopi way. . . . This work gives a comprehensive view of the Hopi as a people, in length of time covered as well as in depth and breadth. --Utah Historical Quarterly "It is personal yet precise, emotional and involved, yet objective and factual. . . . Readers who know something of Hopi history will be fascinated by the new insights and interpretations presented by James." --Arizona and the West "The author has been an active supporter of Hopi interests for some fifty years and this book is as much a testimony to his unflagging personal devotion to a small and neglected tribe as it is a history of the Hopis' determination to maintain their identity and self-respect." --Journal of Arizona History "Harry James writes with sympathy and restraint about a proud people who have suffered unjustly in the past, and who today are seeking an identity. He brings into sharp focus the dreams for tomorrow of the Hopi tribe. Let these dreams be shared by others before it is too late." --The American West "An amazing and gripping account of a very great and intelligent people, concentrating on fact rather than the fantastic legends that have grown up around this unique culture." --The Masterkey "The Hopi are indeed a most interesting people, and this authentic account of their way of life is a valuable contribution to our knowledge of the Indian tribes of Arizona." --The Book Exchange "For an excellent account of the history of the Hopi, the Southwest, typical government intervention into tribal affairs and the lives of the people . . . a must for any library." --Whispering Winds
