Late Archaic to Early Puebloan Occupation on the Arizona Strip, Northwestern Arizona: A View from Rock Canyon Shelter

The Arizona Strip, a sparsely populated region in the northwest corner of Arizona, is poorly known archaeologically, especially for the Pre-Puebloan periods. Recorded Archaic sites on the Strip tend to date after 4,000 years ago, although few sites of that age have been investigated and reported in...

description The Arizona Strip, a sparsely populated region in the northwest corner of Arizona, is poorly known archaeologically, especially for the Pre-Puebloan periods. Recorded Archaic sites on the Strip tend to date after 4,000 years ago, although few sites of that age have been investigated and reported in the extreme western area. Modest tests at Rock Canyon Shelter on the Uinkaret Plateau yielded insights into late Archaic use of the region, while Zea mays dates document Basketmaker II at the shelter nearly 2000 years ago. Comparisons with contemporary assemblages at open sites to the east along Short Creek provide insights into regional dietary shifts from wild resources to greater reliance on domesticates and weedy plants as well as a diminishing importance of large game once domesticates are introduced.
