Emanuel 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I must first thank my compadres Ingeniero Alfonso Gonzales Siqueiros, his wife Diana Marcela Bernal Cruz, and their two sons, Hanz and José Eduardo for taking me in as part of the family during my time in San Lázaro. Alfonso deserves many thanks for helping me to gather a large amount of data presented in this document. Besides also contributing in this regard, Diana transcribed most of the ethnographic interviews. For their assistance and friendship, I am forever in their debt. The community members of San Lázaro deserve credit and thanks for contributing many hours to this effort. Among those who deserve special thanks are Benigno Lorta Cruz, Ventura Rivera, Enrique Perez and family, Manuel “Solis” Mendoza, Ele, Justo and Monchi Rivera, Jesús “Güero” Zazueta and family, Eduardo Luzanía, Blanca, Rodolfo Dominguez, Marisela Martinez, Cípriano and Amalia Martinez, the students of Telesecondaria No. 56, and especially their teachers, Patti and Araceli Orzonio Bernal. My dissertation committee and especially its chair deserve significant credit for direction, editing and intellectual support. The committee includes: James Greenberg (chair), J. Steven Lansing, Thomas K. Park, and Marcela Vásquez-León. Special thanks are also owed to: Jonathan Mabry, Barbara Tellman, Larry Marshall, Richard Stoffle, Helen Henderson, Robert Hackenberg, Terry Sprouse, Philip Halpenny, Diana Hadley, Rebecca Carter, Anne Browning-Aiken, Maria Carmen Lemos, Steve Cornelius, Alejandro Barcénas, Kay Garrett, Jesus Quíntanar, Luís Nuñez Noriega, Josiah Heyman, Michael Crimmins, and Luís Cervera. I must also thank the staff and researchers of the Departamento de Investigaciones en Cíencias y Tecnología de la Universidad de Sonora and especially Professor Arturo Villalba. In spite of all of the help, all errors herein are my own. For monetary and logistical support, I must first and foremost thank the Sonoran Institute and specifically Dr. Joaquin Murrieta Saldivar. The logistical support of using the Centro Comunitario de Conservación del río Santa Cruz was something that I could not do without, and Joaquin along with Alfonso Gonzales, graciously loaned that space to me while I was in the field. Portions of this research were supported by grants from the Rieker Fund, and the Department of Anthropology. The National Park Service provided some indirect funding for fieldwork. Special thanks are also owed to Dr. Deborah Young at Arizona Cooperative Extension for the release time to complete the write up. I also owe special thanks to friends who have been there: Lydia Bruenig, Cordelia Guggenheim, Jesús Garcia-Yanes, Kevin Ver Weire, Rebecca Carter, Sara Storrer, Lisa Schwartz, Steve Wind, Katherine Holmsen, George Zaimes, Meghan Maloney, and Cortney Phelon. My immediate family, especially my father Joel, and my wife’s parents also deserve credit for support and encouragement. Lastly, my wife Gina Campbell Emanuel put up with my long years of graduate school and sporadic field research. Through it all, she never gave up her support for me. For this, she deserves my utmost appreciation, respect, and love. 5 DEDICATION To my wife, Gina Campbell Emanuel, who not coincidentally, came into my life at the same time as I began this long, generally arduous journey called post-graduate education. If this serendipidity had not occurred, I know that I would never have gotten this far in the educational process, nor would I have had the good sense to set my priorities straight during the journey. May the next steps always carry us together to greener pastures. To my father who taught me to think critically about everything, whatever the consequences, and to the memory of my mother who encouraged me to be unabashedly curious about the world. 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES .......................................................................................................... 9 LIST OF TABLES .......................................................................................................... 10 ABSTRACT...................................................................................................................... 11 1.

  • Biogeographic Distribution of Bison in Arizona
    Wolff, TER-QUA PalArch’s Journal of Vertebrate Palaeontology, 10(4) (2013) HOME ON THE RANGE: BIOGEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION OF BISON IN ARIZONA Sarah E. Wolff* * University of Arizona School of Anthropology, University of Arizona Tucson, AZ 85721 [email protected] Sarah E. Wolff. 2013. Home on the Range: Biogeographic Distribution of Bison in Arizona. – Palarch’s Journal of Vertebrate Palaeontology 10(4) (2013), 1-11. ISSN 1567- 2158. 11 pages + 3 figures, 1 table. Keywords: Bison, Biogeography, Arizona, Southwest historical ecology ABSTRACT The American bison are traditionally thought of as animals of the vast plains and grasslands, but paleontological and archaeological evidence supports the view that the biogeographic range of bison extended throughout the continental United States to include the American Southwest and Arizona. During the Pleistocene (2,588,000 BP to 11,700 BP), there are several paleontological and archaeological signatures of bison herds in Arizona. From approximately 12,000 BP to AD 1 there is no evidence for bison in the area. This changes around AD 1 when the climate became more favorable, and bison expanded back into Arizona. The last historic bison remains in Arizona date to AD 1650. From AD 1650 until the early 1900s, there are no bison documented in Arizona. Reintroduction of bison to Arizona’s national forests and ran- ches began in the early 1900s and continues to today. Bison can still be seen on the Arizona landscape demonstrating the temporal longevity of the biogeographic distribution of bison in Arizona. © PalArch Foundation 1 Wolff, TER-QUA PalArch’s Journal of Vertebrate Palaeontology, 10(4) (2013) Introduction Arizona is a somewhat surprising area to find bison because of the desert ecology that Biogeographic distribution of bison as previous- dominates the state today.

One’s first impression may be of size and distance—broad valleys rimmed by mountain ranges, with a huge sky arching over all. However, a closer look reveals that, beneath the broad brush strokes, this is a land of astonishing variety. For example, it is comprised of several kinds of desert, year-round flowing streams, and sky island mountain ranges.

Con base en las fuentes estadís- ticas disponibles, se revisan los sectores que confieren dinamismo a la economía así como la composición y fuerza de trabajo del sector industrial. Se argumenta que el paso al modelo de creci- miento centrado en la agricultura comercial implicó una cierta desindustrialización, así como desequilibrios regionales graves. Palabras clave: historia de Sonora del siglo XX, industrialización, crecimien- to económico, agricultura comercial, estructura ocupacional, modernización tecnológica. Abstract: This article analyzes the link between the development model and the occupational structure in Sonora between 1900 and 1960, in order to understand the nature and pace of industriali- zation in this state.
