Named with the Spanish term sin agua (‘without water’), people of the Sinagua culture inhabited Arizona’s Middle Verde Valley and Flagstaff areas from about 6001400 CE Verde Valley cliff houses below the rim of Montezuma Well and grew corn, beans, and squash in scattered lo- cations. Their architecture included masonry-lined pithouses, surface pueblos, and cliff dwellings. Their pottery included some black-on-white ceramic vessels much like those produced elsewhere by the An- cestral Pueblo people but was mostly plain brown, and made using the paddle-and-anvil technique. Was Sinagua a separate culture from the sur- rounding Ancestral Pueblo, Mogollon, Hohokam, and Patayan ones? Was Sinagua a branch of one of those other cultures? Or was it a complex blending or borrowing of attributes from all of the surrounding cultures? Whatever the case might have been, today’s Hopi Indians consider the Sinagua to be ancestral to the Hopi. Old Pueblo Archaeology Center’s car-caravan educational tour, to be led by National Park Ser- vice archaeologists Matthew Guebard and Lucas Hoedl, will visit three of the best-preserved and most spectacular Southern Sinagua culture ar- chaeological sites in north-central Arizona’s Mid- Southwestern Formative period archaeological cultures map; dle Verde Valley. Montezuma Castle is a 20-room, photo and map on this page by Allen Dart, tour coordinator five-story cliff dwelling built in the early 12th cen- tury by ancestral Hopi. The cliff dwelling is one of the first National Monuments established under the federal Antiquities Act of 1906. Tuzigoot is an 87-room pueblo built and occupied by ancestral Hopi people from the early 12th to early 15th centuries. Tuzigoot is the site of one of the earliest and most comprehensive archaeological excavations in the Verde Valley. And Montezuma Well is a spring-fed limestone sink hole that produces approximately 1.5 million gallons of water every day. A pithouse vil- lage, irrigation canal, cliff dwellings, and open-air pueblos are located near the well and date to the 10th-14th centuries. You can participate in this tour for a $50 donation ($40 for Old Pueblo Archaeology Center and Friends of Pueblo Grande Museum members), which helps cover Old Pueblo’s tour expenses and supports its education programs about archaeology and traditional cultures.

    Tribal Perspectives on the Hohokam

    Bulletin of Old Pueblo Archaeology Center Tucson, Arizona December 2009 Number 60 Michael Hampshire’s artist rendition of Pueblo Grande platform mound (right); post-excavation view of compound area northwest of Pueblo Grande platform mound (above) TRIBAL PERSPECTIVES ON THE HOHOKAM Donald Bahr, Ph.D. Professor Emeritus, Arizona State University The archaeologists’ name for the principal pre-European culture of southern Arizona is Hohokam, a word they adopted from the O’odham (formerly Pima-Papago). I am not sure which archaeologist first used that word. It seems that the first documented but unpublished use is from 1874 or 1875 (Haury 1976:5). In any case, since around then archaeologists have used their methods to define and explain the origin, development, geographic extent, and end of the Hohokam culture. This article is not about the archaeologists’ Hohokam, but about the stories and explanations of past peoples as told by the three Native American tribes who either grew from or replaced the archaeologists’ Hohokam on former Hohokam land. These are the O’odham, of course, but also the Maricopa and Yavapai. The Maricopa during European times (since about 1550) lived on lands previously occupied by the Hohokam and Patayan archaeological cultures, and the Yavapai lived on lands of the older Hohokam, Patayan, Hakataya, Salado, and Western Anasazi cultures – to use all of the names that have been used, sometimes overlappingly, for previous cultures of the region. The Stories The O’odham word huhugkam means “something that is used up or finished.” The word consists of the verb huhug, which means “to be used up or finished,” and the suffix “-kam,” which means “something that is this way.” Huhug is generally, and perhaps only, used as an intransitive, not a transitive, verb.

El presente curso pretende ofrecer una visión de los elementos y períodos culturales que identifican al México Antiguo.

Las área culturales del México Antiguo no solo se reduce a Mesoamérica como el período de máximo florecimiento que le antecedió a la conquista. En otros tiempos, antes de conocerse esta macroárea cultural, llegaron diversos grupos de cazadores-recolectores nómadas. El proceso evolutivo de estos grupos fue largo y lento, permitiendo avanzar e ir tocando diferentes niveles de desarrollo y los conocimientos necesarios para el cultivo y domesticación de las plantas como uno de los descubrimientos mas importantes durante esta fase que cambio el curso de la historia. Otra de las regiones es la llamada Oasisamérica localizada al sw de E.U. y norte de México, compuesta por grupos sedentarios agrícolas pero con una complejidad similar a la Mesoamericana. El área denominada mesoamérica, espacio donde interactuaron y se desarrollaron diversos grupos culturales, fue la “…sede de la mas alta civilización de la América precolombina. (Niederbeger, 11, 1996), se desarrollo en la mayor parte del territorio mexicano. Mesoamérica, definida así por Kirchhoff en 1943, es punto de referencia no solo para estudiosos del período prehispánico, en el convergen diversos especialistas amparados en diferentes corrientes ideológicas y enfoques: antropólogos, geógrafos prehistoriadores, historiadores, sociólogos, arquitectos, biólogos, sociólogos, por mencionar a algunos.

Early in the 12th century, ancestral Native American people called the “Southern Sinagua” by archeologists began building a five-story, 20-room dwelling in an alcove about 30 m (100 ft) above the valley floor. The alcove occurs in the Verde Formation, limestone. The contrast of two colors of mortar is evident in this photograph. More than 700 years ago, inhabitants applied the lighter white mortar on the top one-third. In the late 1990s, the National Park Service applied the darker red mortar on the bottom two-thirds.
