Copper Bell Trade Patterns in the Prehispanic U.S. Southwest and Northwest Mexico
Author: Victoria D. VargasPublisher: Arizona State Museum
ISBN:
Category : Barter
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
Examines the stylistic, temporal, and geographic variability of 622 copper bells from 93 sites, exploring the evidence for copper production at Casas Grandes and the possibility for western Mexican production. The volume also updates and revises recent copper bell typologies. Vargas confirms two phases of trade: A.D. 800-1250, when exchange seems prestige-oriented and occurred between the Hohokam in southern Arizona and groups in western Mexico; and A.D. 1250-1520, when two nodes for trade networks developed with western Mexico at Casas Grandes and in the Hohokam/Salado area.

Pages : 234
Book Description
Archaeologists are slowly peeling back the mysteries surrounding the Casas Grandes culture of Mexico, although most of that work has focused on the principal site of Paquimé and its immediate vicinity. In this volume, Jane Kelley and her colleagues probe the southern edge of the Casas Grandes culture area--an area little explored by archaeologists until now. The book provides the first solid foundation for research on prehistoric west-central Chihuahua. Readers will find descriptions of the southern branch of the pottery-making, village-dwelling farmers of the Casas Grandes culture and learn that, as Paquimé became the most complex site in the region, the southern Casas Grandes people mostly held back from the "Paquimé revolution." The studies presented here confer a more nuanced understanding of the tremendous diversity within one of the region's great prehistoric cultures, an area that extends unbroken from deep in Mexico north to central Utah.
