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..

AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document

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.
