Sites in the Chinle Valley of northeastern Arizona provide evidence that Basketmaker subsistence and settlement characteristics—including maize horticulture, shallow pit dwellings, and storage pits—were widespread at least by the beginning of the first millennium B.C. At Lukachukai, maize and charcoal produced five radiocarbon dates ranging from 3445 to 3040 B.P. Maize and charcoal from a late Archaic-Basketmaker II component at Salina Springs produced six radiocarbon dates ranging from 2810 to 2100 B P. Maize, cheno-ams, other wild plants, artiodactyls, and rabbits appear to have formed the subsistence base.RESUMENUn grupo de sitios Basketmaker localizados en el Valle Chinle al noreste de Arizona, han dado evidencias de que el patrón de asentamiento y subsistencia representado por la horticultura de maíz, casas en pozos semi-superfidales, y pozos de almacenamiento, ya se encontraban bien distribuidos a lo menos durante comienzos del primer milenio después de cristo. En el sitio de Lukachukai, cinco fechas de radiocarbono fueron obtenidas de muestras de maíz y carbón, las cuales fluctúan entre el 3445 al 3040 antes del presente, del componente arcaico-basketmaker II en Salina Spring, se obtuvieron muestras de maíz y carbón que proporcionaron seis fechas de radiocarbón ubicadas entre 2810 y el 2100 antes del presente. La base de subsistencia parece haber estado formada por maíz, chenopodium, algunas plantas silvestres, artiodáctilos, y conejos
