Download or read book A General View of the Archeology of the Pueblo Region Classic Reprint written by Edgar Lee Hewett and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A General View of the Archeology of the Pueblo Region The term pueblo region has not yet been acceptably defined. As used in this paper it designates that portion of the United States over which are distributed the archeological remains and the living remnants of those aboriginal North American tribes which from their chief common characteristic, that of permanent substantial house building, received from the Spanish conquerors the name of Pueblo or town Indians. It embraces almost the whole of New Mexico and Arizona, with small portions of southwestern Colorado and southeastern Utah. There is probably no reason why the term should not be extended to embrace large portions of the states of Sonora and Chihuahua, in Old Mexico.

This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Moqui Pueblo Indians of Arizona and Pueblo Indians of New Mexico The Moqui Pueblos live upon lands in Arizona which they were permitted to occupy by the Spanish and Mexican owners, and which became grants by reason of town occupation for a long period, These grants are not yet defined, but were tacitly recognized by President Arthur in his proclamation of December 16, 1882, when he threw about them the protection of a reservation to keep off white people and the Navajos. These Indians are citizens of the United States under the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. 16 of the pueblos of New Mexico own their lands in fee (3 are reserved) and the inhabitants of all are citizens of the United States. The allotment of the lands of the Moqui Pueblos (which in the case of the Pueblos can only be done by themselves), compelling the holders to reside upon them, would abolish the villages and pueblos, disperse these Indians, and make them dependents.

This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pueblo Land Problem This Bulletin is issued by the New Mexico Association on Indian Affairs as an historical statement of law and fact which must serve as a basis for any proposed Pueblo legislation. It is in the nature of an open letter, which we hope will elucidate the complex Pueblo land problem and unite all friends of the Indians in a co-operative effort toward constructive legislation for the Pueblos. The policy of the Association was fully set forth in the official Blue Book published last year in connection with its fight on the defeated Bursum Bill, in which it was stated that Congressional action is required, but it must be action based upon fairness to both sides and not action favoring one side as against the other. The New Mexico Association will welcome any criticism of fact or policy indicated in this outline, if such criticism is based upon supportable argument or evidence, and Will be guided thereby in its recommendations for constructive legislation at the coming session of Congress.

Download or read book The Prehistoric Pueblo World A D 1150 1350 written by Michael A. Adler and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2000-04-01 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the mid-twelfth to the mid-fourteenth century, the world of the ancestral Pueblo people (Anasazi) was in transition, undergoing changes in settlement patterns and community organization that resulted in what scholars now call the Pueblo III period. This book synthesizes the archaeology of the ancestral Pueblo world during the Pueblo III period, examining twelve regions that embrace nearly the entire range of major topographic features, ecological zones, and prehistoric Puebloan settlement patterns found in the northern Southwest. Drawn from the 1990 Crow Canyon Archaeological Center conference "Pueblo Cultures in Transition," the book serves as both a data resource and a summary of ideas about prehistoric changes in Puebloan settlement and in regional interaction across nearly 150,000 square miles of the Southwest. The volume provides a compilation of settlement data for over 800 large sites occupied between A.D. 1100-1400 in the Southwest. These data provide new perspectives on the geographic scale of culture change in the Southwest during this period. Twelve chapters analyze the archaeological record for specific districts and provide a detailed picture of settlement size and distribution, community architecture, and population trends during the period. Additional chapters cover warfare and carrying capacity and provide overviews of change in the region. Throughout the chapters, the contributors address the unifying issues of the role of large sites in relation to smaller ones, changes in settlement patterns from the Pueblo II to Pueblo III periods, changes in community organization, and population dynamics. Although other books have considered various regions or the entireprehistoric area, this is the first to provide such a wealth of information on the Pueblo III period and such detailed district-by-district syntheses. By dealing with issues of population aggregation and the archaeology of large settlements, it offers readers a much-needed synthesis of one of the most crucial periods of culture change in the Southwest.

Download or read book Mimbres Archaeology at the NAN Ranch Ruin written by Harry J. Shafer and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following two decades of excavations and research at the NAN Ranch Ruin in southwestern New Mexico, Harry Shafer offers new information and interpretations of the rise and disappearance of the ancient Mimbres culture that thrived in the area from about A.D. 600 to 1140. The NAN Ranch site gives evidence of a fascinating restructuring of Mimbres culture and society, owing to the introduction of irrigation agriculture in the late ninth century. The social restructuring that accompanied this shift in technology resulted in changes that are visible in architecture, mortuary practices, and ceramic decoration. The NAN Ranch ruin has yielded the largest body of evidence ever gathered at a single Mimbres site and thus offers the clearest picture to date of who the ancient Mimbreños were in relation to their Anasazi and Hohokam neighbors to the north and east. Shafer introduces us to the Mimbres people, gives a history of archaeological research in the Mimbres Valley, and traces the occupation of the NAN Ranch site from pithouses to classic pueblo to abandonment. Social customs, subsistence, biological information, and the symbolism of the distinctive Mimbres designs in their ceramics, pottery, stone artifacts, textiles, and jewelry are all addressed in this comprehensive survey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the latest mystery from New York Times bestselling author Charles Todd, World War I nurse and amateur sleuth Bess Crawford investigates an old murder that occurred during her childhood in India, a search for the truth that will transform her and leave her pondering a troubling question: How can facts lie? Bess Crawford enjoyed a wondrous childhood in India, where her father, a colonel in the British Army, was stationed on the Northwest Frontier. But an unforgettable incident darkened that happy time. In 1908, Colonel Crawford's regiment discovered that it had a murderer in its ranks, an officer who killed five people in India and England yet was never brought to trial. In the eyes of many of these soldiers, men defined by honor and duty, the crime was a stain on the regiment's reputation and on the good name of Bess's father, the Colonel Sahib, who had trained the killer. A decade later, tending to the wounded on the battlefields of France during World War I, Bess learns from a dying Indian sergeant that the supposed murderer, Lieutenant Wade, is alive—and serving at the Front. Bess cannot believe the shocking news. According to reliable reports, Wade's body had been seen deep in the Khyber Pass, where he had died trying to reach Afghanistan. Soon, though, her mind is racing. How had he escaped from India? What had driven a good man to murder in cold blood? Wanting answers, she uses her leave to investigate. In the village where the first three killings took place, she discovers that the locals are certain that the British soldier was innocent. Yet the present owner of the house where the crime was committed believes otherwise, and is convinced that Bess's father helped Wade flee. To settle the matter once and for all, Bess sets out to find Wade and let the courts decide. But when she stumbles on the horrific truth, something that even the famous writer Rudyard Kipling had kept secret all his life, she is shaken to her very core. The facts will damn Wade even as they reveal a brutal reality, a reality that could have been her own fate.
