Book excerpt: The importance of the Saige-McFarland Site for Mimbres archaeology became obvious in late 1985, when I was preparing a proposal through the Arizona State Museum for archaeological contract work in the Upper Gila area. The major goals of the project at that time were (1) the preparation of the collections for museum curation (they are now in a permanent repository at the Museum of New Mexico in Santa Fe), and (2) the preparation of a descriptive report of the site to assist future analyses of the collections.

Fio. 107.--Design From A Bowl From Blue. Figure 107. This design in solid black represents two birds in terrace form, the zigzag line representing the running element of the design. The broad area of the terrace contains modifications of the bird symbol. (From the interior of a bowl, Blue, Arizona, Cat. No. HBBBHHHBaBaHraB 245503, U.S.N.M.) Figure 108. This design, which is a section of that covering a whole vase, apparently is intended to show a succession of zigzags formed by alternate opposed series in solid black and gradine. (Spur Ranch, Luna, New Mexico, Cat. No. 231987, U.S.N.M.) Figure 109. A similar design is found on the rim of a vase (fig. 104), and in it the zigzag line is manifestly important. The triangular spaces show the simplest form of the bird symbol. (Spur Ranch, Luna, New Mexico, Cat. No. 232001, U.S.N.M.) Figure 110. Another design shows a pair of zigzag lines treated very much as the white line decorations on the red bowls from the Blue River. This is from the rim of a vase found at Fort Bayard, New Mexico, by Mrs. W. O. Owen, Cat. No. 178826, U.S.N.M. Figure 111. This is a design simplified for application to the handle of a dipper. It apparently represents a succession of opposing black and gradine bird symbols whose opposition forms a zigzag. The denticulation on the margin of the triangles is apparently a feather convention. (Tularosa River, New Mexico. Collected by H. Hales, Cat. No. 155158, U.S.N.M.) Figure 112, design from the handle of the dipper previously mentioned. So far as is known the design is unique and it is difficult to assign its meaning. It is evidently a clipped or abbreviated design suited to the narrow space it must occupy, and appears to be the bird-rain triangular symbol arranged...

Book Salado Archaeology of the Upper Gila  New Mexico

Download or read book Salado Archaeology of the Upper Gila New Mexico written by Stephen H. Lekson and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2002-03 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salado is an enigma of the past. One of the most spectacular cultures of the ancient Southwest, its brilliant polychrome pottery has been subjected to varied interpretations, from religious cult to artistic horizon. Stephen Lekson now uses data from two Salado sitesÑa large pueblo and a small farmsteadÑto clarify long-standing misconceptions about this culture. By combining analysis of the large whole-vessel collection at Dutch Ruin with the scientific excavation of Villareal II, a picture of Salado emerges that enables Lekson to evaluate previous competing theories and propose that Salado represents a major fourteenth-century migration of Pueblo peoples into the Chihuahuan deserts. Lekson demonstrates that late, short-lived Salado farmsteadsÑdifficult to identify archaeologically in areas with larger Mimbres concentrationsÑcoexisted with larger Salado towns, and he argues that Salado in the Upper Gila region appears as a substantial in-migration of Mogollon Uplands populations into what was a vacant river valley. Throughout the fourteenth century, Salado communities in the Upper Gila were integrated into the larger Salado horizon and were closely connected to Casas Grandes, as indicated by the export of serpentine to the city of PaquimŽ and the occurrence of Casas Grandes pottery at Upper Gila Salado sites. The book includes illustrations of 71 vessels from Dutch Ruin plus a full-color frontispiece. Through analysis of these two sites, Lekson has taken a large step toward clearing up the mystery of Salado. His work will be welcomed by all who study the movements of peoples in the prehispanic Southwest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Gila Wilderness is both a landmark in conservation history and a living, evolving place. First and Wildest is an elegant, impassioned, and timely tribute to its remarkable past and present.” —MICHELLE NIJHUIS In the summer of 1922, Aldo Leopold traveled on horseback up into the headwaters of New Mexico's Gila River and proposed to his bosses at the Forest Service that 500,000 acres of that rough country be set aside as roadless wilderness. Thus was born America's first—the world's first—designated wilderness. A century later, writer–activists, including Indigenous voices, come together to celebrate this vast, rugged landscape, the Yellowstone of the Southwest. Contributors include Michael P. Berman, Philip Connors, Martha Schumann Cooper, Beto O'Rourke, Martin Heinrich, Pam Houston, Priyanka Kumar, Laura Paskus, Sharman Apt Russell, Jakob Sedig, Leeanna T. Torres, and JJ Amaworo Wilson. ELIZABETH HIGHTOWER ALLEN is a contributing editor at Outside magazine, where she spent twenty–plus years editing award–winning features and writing columns and book reviews. A transplanted southerner turned westerner, she lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where she edits books and articles about public lands, memoir, and adventure, and serves on the advisory board to Writers on the Range. She and her husband and daughter spend as much time as they can exploring the rivers and mountains of the West—while also making it back to Tennessee fairly frequently for ham biscuits. Her mind is blown by the rugged vastness of the Gila.

Excerpt: ...of Luna, a town on the San Francisco river. The ruins along the Blue are located on terraces above the stream, near lands suitable for cultivation; they are rectangular stone pueblos, and are generally accompanied with square kivas. Numerous small pueblos are also found on the creeks flowing into the Blue, but there are few caves, because the rock is not of the character to permit this kind of erosion. There is abundant water in this valley, and the climate is equable, so that agriculture could have been carried on by the Indians with the greatest returns. Although the valuable farming land was limited the pueblos are, in the main, large and from various evidences were long inhabited. From Clifton, Ariz., along the San Francisco to a short distance above the mouth of the Blue there are a few ruins of the rectangular pueblo type, which are noted under nos. 26-32 in the following pages. Fig. 9. Sketch map of Blue river, Arizona, showing location of ruins. No. 26. Pueblo.--This ruin is located on the bluff overlooking the town hospital of Clifton, Ariz. Rough volcanic rocks almost cover the site, and among them the rooms were built without attempt at orderly arrangement. Some of the dwellings were formed by picking out loose masses of lava from a small area and piling them up around the sides to build the walls. The pottery is chiefly brown, and consists of bowls with fillet rims and vessels with coiled or rugose surfaces. Some excavation has been attempted here by citizens of Clifton. At the foot of the bluff on which the ruin is located petroglyphs representing the sun, serpent, water, and other objects, have been pecked on a smooth rock face. of the pueblo runs a dry-laid stone wall. It is reported that cremation burials have been...
