The abandonment of the Mimbres Valley between A.D. 1130 and 1150 is reexamined with data from an adjacent area. Land-use changes in the eastern Mimbres area, from the Rio Grande up the eastern slopes of the Black Range, are evaluated as consequences of adandonment of large villages in the Mimbres Valley. Surface survey data on architectural sites are from intensive systematic survey along Palomas Creek, draining east from the Black Range into the Rio Grande, and from reconnaissance survey along the Rio Grande and lower portions of other Black Range drainages. Land use prior to A.D. 1130 is dominated by part-time or seasonal occupation or by special use, probably fanning. After A.D. 1130, the emphasis shifts toward greater residential use and continuity of occupation. Sites spanning this time show evidence of ceramic continuity in the continued presence of Classic Mimbres Black-on-white Style III. This change in the eastern Mimbres region is considered in the context of abandonment of the Mimbres Valley. The importance of attention to scale in archaeological analysis is discussed
