AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This document is a statistical analysis of the orientation of Mogollon structures during the Late Pit House period at the Wind Mountain site in New Mexico. The authors speculate that the orientation of structures at this site were not positioned randomly, but were preferentially placed to gather the maximum amount of solar energy.
