Small-Scale Migrations among Early Farmers in the Sonoran Desert
Migration played a significant role in shaping the Native populations of the southwest United States and northwest Mexico. Large-scale migrations into and across the region were underlain by small-scale (intraregional) population shifts affected by environmental fluctuations (declines and improvements) and social phenomena such as aggregation and the spread of sociopolitical spheres of influence within the region. We compare projectile point type…
Empire Points
Until recently, San Pedro points were the only temporally diagnostic projectile point style associated with the San Pedro phase of the Early Agricultural period in the southern Southwest. Recent archaeological survey and excavation projects conducted in Cienega Valley and the Tucson Basin have identified the Empire point as an additional projectile point style diagnostic of the San Pedro phase. Comparisons of morphologic and metric attributes of …
Cienega Points and Late Archaic Period Chronology in the Southern Southwest
This paper explores changes in the style and function of two widespread projectile point types during the Late Archaic (1200 B.C.-A.D. 150) period in the southern Southwest. San Pedro and Cienega points, the primary styles associated with the period, have traditionally been assumed to have functioned as dart points. A refined Cienega point typology is proposed here that recognizes four distinct subtypes, which are shown to be chronologically sens…
