prehistoric pueblo world, a.d. 1150-1350Tucson • Published In 1996 • Pages: 170-176

By: Lekson, Stephen H..

Abstract
Lekson argues that settlement patterns and site plans in this area mirror those in the Anasazi regions to the north as they shared similar environments. In addition, the only major difference between their ceramics is the color of the pottery paste which is based on the available underlying geologic rock. Lekson believes the similarities between the two regions during the Pueblo II and Pueblo III periods are such that the two regions should be studied together.
