Book Mogollon Culture in the Forestdale Valley  East Central Arizona

Download or read book Mogollon Culture in the Forestdale Valley East Central Arizona written by Emil W. Haury and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Forestdale did more than any other single area to validate the emerging concept of a separate Mogollon culture, and in this compilation Haury provides the reader with not only the complete archaeological picture of this valley but also the history of the developemtn of the concept. Any Southwestern archaeologist and readers who want to stay abreast of the details of Nroth American prehistory should read this book.”—American Antiquity Classic site reports establish the Mogollon on their own cultural track distinct from the Anasazi and also document the earliest known association of tree-ring dates with pottery in the Southwest. The excavations of Mogollon sites reported on in this volume were conducted at the early (1939–1941) field schools in Forestdale, Arizona.

Book Beyond Chaco

    Book Details:
  • Author : Sarah A. Herr
  • Publisher : University of Arizona Press
  • Release : 2016-12-15
  • ISBN : 0816536643
  • Pages : 147 pages

Download or read book Beyond Chaco written by Sarah A. Herr and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2016-12-15 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the eleventh and twelfth centuries A.D., the Mogollon Rim region of east-central Arizona was a frontier, situated beyond and between larger regional organizations such as Chaco, Hohokam, and Mimbres. On this southwestern edge of the Puebloan world, past settlement poses a contradiction to those who study it. Population density was low and land abundant, yet the region was overbuilt with great kivas, a form of community-level architecture. Using a frontier model to evaluate household, community, and regional data, Sarah Herr demonstrates that the archaeological patterns of the Mogollon Rim region were created by the flexible and creative behaviors of small-scale agriculturalists. These people lived in a land-rich and labor-poor environment in which expediency, mobility, and fluid social organization were the rule and rigid structures and normative behaviors the exception. Herr's research shows that the eleventh- and twelfth-century inhabitants of the Mogollon Rim region were recent migrants, probably from the southern portion of the Chacoan region. These early settlers built houses and ceremonial structures and made ceramic vessels that resembled those of their homeland, but their social and political organization was not the same as that of their ancestors. Mogollon Rim communities were shaped by the cultural backgrounds of migrants, by their liminal position on the political landscape, and by the unique processes associated with frontiers. As migrants moved from homeland to frontier, a reversal in the proportion of land to labor dramatically changed the social relations of production. Herr argues that when the context of production changes in this way, wealth-in-people becomes more valuable than material wealth, and social relationships and cultural symbols such as the great kiva must be reinterpreted accordingly. Beyond Chaco expands our knowledge of the prehistory of this region and contributes to our understanding of how ancestral communities were constituted in lower-population areas of the agrarian Southwest.

Book A Study of Selected Rock Excavations as Related to Large Nuclear Craters

Download or read book A Study of Selected Rock Excavations as Related to Large Nuclear Craters written by and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analogies between nuclear and conventional excavations are developed from a tabulation of data from 153 mine, quarry, roadway, and dam excavations. The following factors were used as the basis for tabulation of conventional excavation data: purpose, location, precipitation, temperature, ground water level, lithology, mass strength, structural pattern, slope plan, slope profile, depth of excavation, slope height, average inclination, and stability. It was found that average slope inclination tends to be greatest for hard material and for material lacking a well-developed structure, and that inclination tends to de- crease with increasing slope height for excavated slopes reported to be stable. The authors conclude that good analogies are to be found in shape, slope height, depth of excavation, and slope inclination. Loadings of waste material at the rim of some open pit mines may be analogous to ejecta on the lips of nuclear craters. Rubble zones found in some open pit mines may be analogous to the fallback zones of nuclear craters. Differences between preshot and postshot characteristics of cratered media must be appreciated in evaluating analogies between features of conventional excavations and preshot features of nuclear excavation sites. Brief descriptions of 21 selected excavations are presented in Appendix A. The results of this study serve as an aid to judgment of nuclear crater slope stability. Potential subjects for further study are identified.
