Book Description
Paleoindians first arrived in Texas more than eleven thousand years ago, although relatively few sites of such early peoples have been discovered. Texas has a substantial post-Paleoindian record, however, and there are more than fifty thousand prehistoric archaeological sites identified across the state. This comprehensive volume explores in detail the varied experience of native peoples who lived on this land in prehistoric times. Chapters on each of the regions offer cutting-edge research, the culmination of years of work by dozens of the most knowledgeable experts. Based on the archaeological record, the discussion of the earliest inhabitants includes a reclassification of all known Paleoindian projectile point types and establishes a chronology for the various occupations. The archaeological data from across the state of Texas also allow authors to trace technological changes over time, the development of intensive fishing and shellfish collecting, funerary customs and the belief systems they represented, long-term changes in settlement mobility and character, landscape use, and the eventual development of agricultural societies. The studies bring the prehistory of Texas Indians all the way up through the Late Prehistoric period (ca. a.d. 700–1600). The extensively illustrated chapters are broadly cultural-historical in nature but stay strongly focused on important current research problems. Taken together, they present careful and exhaustive considerations of the full archaeological (and paleoenvironmental) record of Texas.

Book Description
This report describes the results of a cultural resource assessment of gravel quarry impacts on five prehistoric sites (5BN198-5BN202; JM-72-JM-76) previously recorded by Science Applications, Inc. and limited surface reconnaissance of the Santa Fe Trail segments (5BN391) within the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) property at the John Martin Reservoir, Bent County, Colorado. The gravel quarry operations conducted in the E 1/2 of NE 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of Section 35 and the NE 1/4 of the SE 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of Section 35 Township 22S, Range 51W, have severely impacted all of site 5BN202 (JM-76) and the northeast edge of Site 5BN199 (JM-73); the other sites have not been affected by the gravel pit operations. The recent reevaluation by Mariah Associates, Inc. indicates that problems may exist in the identification and quantification of artifacts; and the reported location of some sites 5BN198 (JM-72); 5BN138 (JM-03).
The Mescalero Apaches

Book Description
Frederick Webb Hodge remarked that the Eastern Apache tribe called the Mescaleros were “never regarded as so warlike” as the Apaches of Arizona. But the Mescaleros’ history is one of hardship and oppression alternating with wars of revenge. They were friendly to the Spaniards until victimized, and friendly to Americans until they were betrayed again. For three hundred years Mescaleros fought the Spaniards and Mexicans. They fought Americans for forty more, before subsiding into lethargy and discouragement. Only since 1930 have the Mescaleros been able to make tribal progress. C. L. Sonnichsen tells the story of the Mescalero Apaches from the earliest records to the modern day, from the Indian's point of view. In early days the Mescaleros moved about freely. Their principal range was between the Río Grande and the Pecos in New Mexico, but they hunted into the Staked Plains and southward into Mexico. They owned nothing and everything. Today the Mescaleros are American citizens and own their reservation in the Tularosa country of New Mexico. While the Mescalero Apaches still struggle to retain their traditions and bridge the gap between their old life and the new, their people have made amazing progress.
