Chaco Canyon in New Mexico was the center of an extensive regional cultural system. The strength of Chaco's regional interactions has been partly defined by the presence of non–local goods including obsidian. We take a diachronic look at Chaco obsidian use from AD 500–1250 using the largest sample of XRF sourced obsidian available to date and combine this with technological analyses to identify significant changes in where and how Chacoans obtained and used obsidian. In the AD 700s obsidian from the more distant Jemez Mountains began to supplant the closer Mt. Taylor obsidian. The obsidian is of roughly equal quality, suggesting this shift relates to social factors and not raw material constraints. We find more variation over time in obsidian source use and acquisition strategies than previously noted. The patterning appears to relate to regional and local cultural diversity, social and organizational heterogeneity, and the development of new exchange networks.

ABSTRACT Vibrant and colorful plaza-based performances are one of the key hallmarks of the Pueblo ceremonial calendar, providing goodwill and communicating community histories, traditions, and knowledge. While the archaeological record may be silent on many details of these performances, a focus on the materiality of performance preparations is possible. In this paper, I rely upon the reanalysis of legacy collections from Pueblo Bonito to consider the production of blue-green paint, a symbolically significant color that is ubiquitous on the most emblematic forms of media used in Pueblo performances. I identify several possible paint production locales and ritual storerooms based on the spatial distributions of blue–green pigment, paint production tools, and painted media recovered from Pueblo Bonito. By considering these preparatory spaces in relation to specific construction sequences, I offer spatial histories of performance to suggest that through time, Pueblo Bonito was incrementally modified to sustain increasingly formalized performances.

A Vázquez de Coronado expedition site in the San Bernardino Valley, represents one of five of the first verifiable Coronado expedition sites found in the state. Paraje del Malpais (AZ FF:12:69, ASM) is adjacent to a spring and catchment pool that likely once provided reliable surface water. Earlier and later petroglyphs include water-related symbols suggesting this trail was used since time immemorial. A spatially separated boulder shows images that are consistent with sixteenth-century dress, footwear, and headgear. A related inscription seemingly reads “Tobar” -a member of the expedition who led a detachment and escorted residents of San Geronimo north to Tiguex in 1541. Clearings in the rocky terraces represent tent or sleeping circles and an iron mule shoe is diagnostic of this period. Another Coronado period artifact is present along this drainage five miles away. Both suggest this was a route taken by the Coronado expedition.
位于圣贝纳迪诺山谷的巴斯克斯·德·科罗纳多探险队遗址是该州发现的首批可核实的五个科罗纳多远征队遗址之一。Paraje del Malpais（AZ FF:12:69，ASM）毗邻一个可能曾经提供可靠地表水的泉水和集水区。早期和后期的岩画包括与水有关的符号，表明这条小径自古以来就被使用。一块空间分离的巨石展示了与16世纪的服装、鞋类和头饰一致的图像。一个相关的铭文似乎写着“托巴尔”——1541年，探险队的一名成员带领一支分遣队护送圣杰罗尼莫的居民北上提格。岩石阶地上的空地代表着帐篷或睡眠圈，铁骡子鞋是这一时期的诊断。另一件科罗纳多时期的文物出现在五英里外的这条排水道上。两人都认为这是科罗纳多探险队所走的路线。

Archaeologists commonly interpret the Early Formative period through the lens of ceramic technology and as a significant break from Late Archaic or Early Agricultural period lifeways; however, the local changes underlying this pattern often remain obscure. In this paper, we evaluate the existing literature for the Early Formative period the San Carlos Safford Area of southeastern Arizona and discern the accuracy of the current understanding of the local chronology, material culture, and regional patterning. Through a systematic examination of chronological, ceramic, and architectural data, we advocate for several interpretive shifts in the Early Formative period and characterize regional patterning during this temporal interval. We relate the emergence of larger villages as an adaptive strategy against a significant climatic event in the early to mid-sixth century yet also demonstrate the incongruities present between the San Carlos Safford Area and far better studied areas within central and southern Arizona.

Fourteenth-century Cliff phase Salado (AD 1300–1450) villages in southwest New Mexico show interesting contrasts with earlier villages in the same region from the Classic Mimbres period (AD 1000–1130). One of the most intriguing differences is that although people in both time periods relied heavily on maize agriculture, Salado period villagers may have employed a more mobile land-use strategy in comparison to Classic Mimbres period residents of the same areas. Researchers in the 1980s suggested that “short-term sedentism” characterized Salado period sites but had limited comparative data. This study reexamines evidence for mobility and sedentism in the Classic Mimbres and Salado periods using burial and architectural data from 49 excavated archaeological sites in the Mimbres region, including recent work on Salado villages.

Current research on the Southwest Archaic has focused on understanding the origins of agriculture and the transition from foraging to farming economies. This transition varied widely across the region depending on the local setting. However, significantly fewer studies have given their attention to understanding the process leading up to the initial use of cultigens. We present the results of our research on the Middle Archaic occupation in the Northern Rio Grande valley circa 3500 to 1500 B.C. A comparison of grassland and woodland areas reveals a complementary pattern of long-term land use between Albuquerque and Santa Fe, New Mexico, a pattern that is also represented by two separate historical trajectories which provided alternative opportunities for these foraging groups.

The expedition led by Francisco Vázquez de Coronado from west-central Mexico into the American Southwest from 1540 to 1542 had a profound and lasting impact on everybody involved. The exploration sought an overland route to Asia and to establish trade relations. The enterprise was also the first major contact between foreigners/others and Indigenous peoples of northern Mexico and the American Southwest. Research at Piedras Marcadas Pueblo, an ancestral village of the Southern Tiwa in central New Mexico, has material evidence and artifact patterns reflecting the cultural groups on the exploration and those with whom the expeditionaries ultimately fought. Geophysics surveys and metal detection have found evidence of a major battlesite at the pueblo. Specific artifact types, such as European metal items, slingstones hurled by their Mexican allies, and piles of rocks thrown back by Pueblo defenders all attest to the conflict and the hard-fought Tiwa resistance.
