Excavations at Snaketown, Harold S. Gladwin, Emil W. Haury, E. B. Sayles, Nora Gladwin • (25) • Published In 1965 • Pages: 154-155
By: Haury, Emil W. (Emil Walter).
Abstract
In contrast to Anasazi sites, Haury notes the apparent lack of bone tools among the Hohokam, the bone awl being the primary exception. However, the use of bone for ornaments and tubes seemed much more to Hohokam liking.The text is well illustrated with various bone artifacts used by the Hohokam (e.g., awls, tubes, and carved objects).
