About This Book

An archaeological report recounts field investigations of prehistoric cliff and cave dwellings and ruined pueblos in northern Arizona, concentrating on sites in Verde Valley and the Tusayan region inhabited by Hopi people. The work documents architecture, site plans, kivas and shrines, mortuary remains, and evidence of destruction; catalogues pottery types, painted iconography, stone tools, ornaments, textiles, pigments, and nonlocal shells; and assesses relationships among sites and possible migration or cultural connections. Extensive illustrations, maps, and appendices support detailed descriptions and comparative interpretations.
