Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black Mesa, Arizona, has sheltered human beings for over 8000 years. For two decades, with the support and assistance of the Peabody Coal Company, archaeologists and other scientists have sought an understanding of how and why those ancient peoples lived as they did. Powell and Gumerman, the principal researchers of one of the largest and longest-running projects in the history of North American archaeology, recognize that only parts of past cultures survive to be discovered and analyzed, but they stress that the material items archaeologists do recover can tell us a great deal about the nonmaterial aspects of the culture in which they were used. In four cultural historical chapters Powell and Gumerman focus in turn on each of the major occupations of Black Mesa: the Archaic (6000 B.C.), Basketmaker II (ca. the time of Christ), Puebloan (A.D. 800-1150), and the Navajo (A.D. 1825 to the present). The 125 photographs, 41 line drawings by Thomas W. Gatlin, and 20 pages of full-color illustrations communicate the fascination of archaeological discovery and add an extra dimension to the authors' stories of ancient and modern life on Black Mesa.

This book was released on 2016-02 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of writings by participants in the Black Mesa Archaeological Project offers a synthesis of Kayenta-area archaeology, examining the ancestral Puebloan and Navajo occupation of the Four Corners region, and analysing faunal, lithic, ceramic, chronometric, and human osteological data, to construct an account of the prehistory and ethnohistory of northern Arizona that demonstrates how organizational variation and other aspects of culture change are largely a response to a changing natural environment.

Book excerpt: Using data from approximately 45square miles of land on Black Mesa, Arizona, this book explores culture changes--particularly population increases and decreases--between A.D. 800 and 1150. Analyzing one of the largest archaeological surveys in the American Southwest, these studies go beyond previous efforts to explain culture changes in five ways. First, several hundred sites discovered in the survey are dated through analysis of small characteristics of designs on pottery. Second, patterns of population change are reconstructed more accurately by using dates from these studies. Third, changes in settlement types and locations help explain subsistence strategies of prehistoric people. Fourth, design characteristics on pottery and the nature of raw materials used to manufacture ceramic vessels and stone tools provide new information on social networks and exchange ties. Finally, the data are synthesized, providing new explanations of culture change.
