Risk, Reciprocity, and the Operation of Social Networks
This chapter examines how social networks might have operated to reduce risk by providing a context for reciprocal exchanges among groups of hunter-gatherers or part-time agriculturists in prehistoric central New Mexico. For the prehistoric inhabitants at the Kite Site, social interactions with hunter-gatherers or part-agricultural groups near Corona and Ancho could have provided access to resources in order to reduced the risk of one kind of res…
Circling the wagons' and community formation
In some respects, the circular village layout might appear to be the ultimate expression of an egalitarian and highly integrated communal society, one in which individual needs are clearly subsumed to the needs of the community as a whole. Cross-cultural studies in Amazonia and the eastern United States, however, suggest that this form of village organization may not be tied so closely to internal social organization as to regional context. The c…
Thick Description of a Visit Home
A journey home after my parents' deaths combined elements of pilgrimage, mortuary ritual, and ritual of reincorporation. This exercise in thick description ( Clifford Geertz 1973 ) explores the meaning of my tragicomic adventure using Renato Rosaldo's (1989 ) ideas of ritual as public markers along private paths. When my personal mourning ritual could not fit into any available cultural category, I stumbled, disoriented, into a carnival world of …
A Case of Historic Cannibalism in the American West
Discoveries of concentrated deposits of fragmentary human bone and their interpretation as evidence of cannibalism in the pre-Hispanic American Southwest have engaged archaeologists in a continuing debate. Forensic study of the victims in the historic Alferd [sic] Packer case from southern Colorado in the 1870s contributes to this discussion by providing detailed data regarding perimortem trauma, cut marks, and butchering patterns in a well-accep…
Introduction
Reading the Body
Reading the Body contains current research about the body -both physical remains and artistic representations - from sites all over the world ranging from the European Upper Paleolithic to the Pueblo societies of the recent past.'
Population Aggregation, Community Organization, and Plaza-Oriented Pueblos in the American Southwest
Throughout the northern American Southwest, the Pueblo III and early Pueblo IV periods (ca. A.C. 1150 to the mid-1300s) are characterized by regional population movements and aggregation into fewer and larger sites. In central New Mexico, these aggregated residential sites are characterized by their highly standardized organization, with linear roomblocks defining a square or rectangular central plaza. Excavations at a Pueblo III site (Kite Puebl…
Gender in Archaeology
Hierarchy and Heterarchy in the American Southwest
McGuire and Saitta (1996) give voice to widespread dissatisfaction with artificial dichotomies that lead to the classification of historic and late Prehispanic puebloan societies as 'egalitarian' or 'hierarchical' in organization. They suggest a solution, a dialectical approach, that rejects processual archaeology in general, although not in its entirety. Another alternative approach, proposed here, relies on the concept of heterarchy (e.g., Crum…

Resource Variability, Risk, and the Structure of Social Networks
Social interactions within a region may reduce the risk of resource stress by facilitating access to resources in other areas. Archaeological implications of this view of social networks are considered for the part-agricultural inhabitants of central New Mexico during the Pithouse period (ca. A.D. 900—1250). Spatial patterning of climatic variables suggests that social networks at least 50 km in extent and oriented in an east-southeastern directi…
