Hohokam architectural variability and site structure during the sedentary-classic tradition

hohokam village : site structure and organization • Glenwood Springs, Colo. • Published In 1987 • Pages: 171-182

By: Sires, Earl W..

Abstract
Sires examines how architecture changed from the Sedentary to the Classic periods. Data gathered during the Salt-Gila Project supports the view of an orderly internal development for domestic architecture as solid-walled and post-reinforced adobe construction were used simultaneously and that the compound architectural form is merely a formalization of earlier living arrangements such as house clusters with work areas and courtyards.
