Book Description
"This book--sixth in the Arroyo Hondo Archaeological Series--examines the uses of wild and domesticated plants at Arroyo Hondo Pueblo, a large, fourteenth-century ruin near Santa Fe, New Mexico. Ethnobotanist Wilma Wetterstrom describes the food plant remains found at the site and estimates the potential harvest of each food resource. Then, in two closely argued chapters, she demonstrates how years of drought would have caused food shortages for Arroyo Hondo's substantial population, resulting in migration as well as malnutrition and higher death rates among young children. In two additional reports, Vorsila L. Bohrer offers information from the analysis of pollen samples, and Richard W. Lang describes artifacts such as mats and baskets made from vegetal materials"--Back cover.
