We thank Superintendents John Hunter and J 036 Cisneros and the staff of Bandelier National Monument for their assistance during the research phases and their patience during the building investigations and construction phases. Virginia Robicheau helped us sift through the Bandelier photo archives and provided technical assistance throughout the project. Chris Judson copied a number of the historic photographs for our research. Bill Sweetland assisted us in figuring out the probable content of the elusive Pojuaque mud mortar and may have even discovered the borrow pit it came from. David Paulisson helped us keep track of project expenditures. The late Mrs. Evelyn Frey, who lived in the canyon for nearly six decades, furnished considerable information on the buildings from the time of their construction to the present. Architect Jared Morse gave us a sense of what Bandelier was like in the 19303. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book An Analysis of Variability and Condition of Cavate Structures in Bandelier National Monument  Classic Reprint

Download or read book An Analysis of Variability and Condition of Cavate Structures in Bandelier National Monument Classic Reprint written by H. Wolcott Toll and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Analysis of Variability and Condition of Cavate Structures in Bandelier National Monument In 1916 Bandelier National Monument was established by proclamation of President Woodrow Wilson to protect and preserve for public enjoyment and education the large Pueblo settlements and spectacular cave dwellings of the southern Pajarito Plateau. At the time, the monument and its archaeological resources enjoyed considerable national prominence both in the public eye and within the discipline of archaeology, largely as a result of the pioneering explorations of Adolph Bandelier and the later excavations and preservation efforts of Edgar L. Hewett. Since then the monument has ceded much of its prominence in southwestern prehistory, as the focus of archaeological research has shifted to other regions. Although sporadic investigations have occurred over the last 75 years, the extent to which Bandelier has been forgotten is exemplified by the modest number of documented sites. In 1985 fewer than 500 were known in the 51 square miles of the monument. Knowledge of even these was poor at best. The present volume by H. Wolcott Toll represents the third of several National Park Service and Washington State University contributions that report the findings of the Bandelier Archeological Survey. Through these publications we hope to reestablish publicly and professionally the monument's important place in late Pueblo prehistory. The ten-year Bandelier Survey was begun in 1985 with the goal of recovering both research and cultural resource management data, so that the Park Service may better understand and interpret the monument's archaeology, and also better preserve it.

Book Ancestral Landscapes of the Pueblo World

Download or read book Ancestral Landscapes of the Pueblo World written by James Elliot Snead and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eastern Pueblo heartland, located in the northern Rio Grande country of New Mexico, has fascinated archaeologists since the 1870s. In Ancestral Landscapes of the Pueblo World, James Snead uses an exciting new approachÑ landscape archaeologyÑto understand ancestral Pueblo communities and the way the people consciously or unconsciously shaped the land around them. Snead provides detailed insight into ancestral Puebloan cultures and societies using an approach he calls Òcontextual experience,Ó employing deep mapping and community-scale analysis. This strategy goes far beyond the standard archaeological approaches, using historical ethnography and contemporary Puebloan perspectives to better understand how past and present Pueblo worldviews and meanings are imbedded in the land. Snead focuses on five communities in the Pueblo heartlandÑBurnt Corn, TÕobimpaenge, Tsikwaiye, Los Aguajes, and TsankawiÑusing the results of intensive archaeological surveys to discuss the changes that occurred in these communities between AD 1250 and 1500. He examines the history of each area, comparing and contrasting them via the themes of Òprovision,Ó Òidentity,Ó and Òmovement,Ó before turning to questions regarding social, political, and economic organization. This revolutionary study thus makes an important contribution to landscape archaeology and explains how the Precolumbian Pueblo landscape was formed.

Book The Oxford Handbook of Southwest Archaeology

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Southwest Archaeology written by Barbara Mills and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 888 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Southwest is one of the most important archaeological regions in the world, with many of the best-studied examples of hunter-gatherer and village-based societies. Research has been carried out in the region for well over a century, and during this time the Southwest has repeatedly stood at the forefront of the development of new archaeological methods and theories. Moreover, research in the Southwest has long been a key site of collaboration between archaeologists, ethnographers, historians, linguists, biological anthropologists, and indigenous intellectuals. This volume marks the most ambitious effort to take stock of the empirical evidence, theoretical orientations, and historical reconstructions of the American Southwest. Over seventy top scholars have joined forces to produce an unparalleled survey of state of archaeological knowledge in the region. Themed chapters on particular methods and theories are accompanied by comprehensive overviews of the culture histories of particular archaeological sequences, from the initial Paleoindian occupation, to the rise of a major ritual center in Chaco Canyon, to the onset of the Spanish and American imperial projects. The result is an essential volume for any researcher working in the region as well as any archaeologist looking to take the pulse of contemporary trends in this key research tradition.
