ABSTRACT

RED-ON-BUFF NORTH OF THE MOGOLLON RIM

A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS AND CULTURAL ASSESSMENT

F. MICHAEL O’HARA, III

Interpretations of prehistoric culture change in the Flagstaff area after

the A.D. 1064-1065 eruption of Sunset Crater have placed different emphases

on migration and exchange. Culture-historical archaeologists of the 1930s

and 1940s focused on inter-regional migration as a determining factor in

cultural change, whereas processual archaeologists of the 1960s and 1970s

focused on economic exchange. Coconino Buff Ware, a decorated pottery ware

of the Flagstaff area, plays an important role in both of these models.

Originally, Coconino Buff Ware was interpreted as the product of immigrant

potters and was believed to be derivative of the Hohokam decorative

tradition. Later interpretations saw it as derivative of black-on-white pottery

of the Ancestral Pueblo decorative tradition. However, no methodical

comparison of the wares and types in question has ever been performed.

I have selected samples of Buff Ware and White Ware pottery from two

Winona Focus sites — Turkey Tanks Pithouses and Winona Village. Using

measurements of element width and spacing, and of element and motif use, I

have statistically characterized the samples of pottery. Results indicate that

Coconino Buff Ware is quite distinct from White Wares from the same

depositional contexts, and may be derivative of the Hohokam pottery

tradition. I propose that Coconino Buff Ware may have been manufactured by

Sinagua who had adopted a social identity linking them with their Hohokam

exchange partners. Some members of Sinagua society adopted the use of

ballcourts for communal rituals, a cremation death ritual, and the

manufacture of red-on-buff pottery with unique vessel forms as behavioral

and material expressions of this identity. I consider the possibility that

Sinagua from the Verde Valley may have introduced these ideas to the

Flagstaff area, and that a Hohokam trader may have may have lived at

Winona Village.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

I would first like to thank my thesis committee chair and academic

advisor Dr. Chris Downum. He has freely shared his extensive knowledge of

Flagstaff archaeology with me. We have had many productive hours of

discussion not only about this thesis topic, but other aspects of Flagstaff

prehistory. I also greatly appreciate the wonderful job opportunities he has

provided me, jobs that were more learning experiences than tasks or duties.

Most of all he has provided an example of how to conduct professional and

ethical archaeological research.

Dr. Kelley Hays-Gilpin’s class on ceramic analysis was one of the best

courses I have ever taken, and it provided me invaluable preparation for

completing this thesis. She also provided me access to the computer and

scanner in the Ceramic Laboratory at Bilby Research Center. Without her,

this thesis would be a lot less colorful.

Dr. Jim Wilce’s classes on linguistics and anthropological theory

challenged me to think in different ways and forced me to confront my

aversion to postmodernism. His pre-thesis seminar helped lay the ground

work for this thesis.

I would like to thank Dr. David R. Wilcox, Tracy Murphy, and Noland

Wiggins at the Museum of Northern Arizona for their assistance in

researching the collections from NA2098T and NA2133T. Dr. Wilcox

introduced me to archaeological fieldwork at NA158, and has always been an

eager disscussant of any ideas I might broach.

Thanks to all of my classmates in Dr. Wilce’s pre-thesis seminar whose

comments and critiques helped shape my research prospectus.

Iwould like to thank two former professors who inspired me to pursue

research in anthropology — Dr. Jerrold Levy and Dr. Jeff Reid. Your interest

in my ideas about ethnology and archaeology encouraged me to continue my

studies.

Most of all I thank my parents for supporting me in all my endeavors. I

especially thank them for all of the cultural and educational opportunities

they have afforded me throughout my life. Most memorable was the trip my

father and I took to Wupatki National Monument on January 17, 1991. That

snowy day was my first introduction to Southwestern archaeology.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

Southwestern archaeologists have long been intrigued by cultural

interaction and population movement, and various theoretical perspectives

have given different weight to these processes in the development of

prehistoric cultural systems. In the Flagstaff area, issues of cultural

interaction and population movement are central to interpretations of

prehistoric culture history. Disagreement exists over whether Coconino Buff

Ware, a decorated pottery ware of the Flagstaff area, derived its design from

Hohokam or Ancestral Pueblo decorative traditions. Previous assessments

have been based upon subjective impressions, rather than systematic

comparative analyses of the pottery types in question. I seek to resolve this

question about Coconino Buff Ware and provide new insights into the

interactions between populations of the Sonoran Desert lowlands and those

of the Colorado Plateau highlands.

First, in Chapter 2, I will outline the historical and theoretical

background of the problem, describing archaeological approaches to culture

in the Southwest, especially the Flagstaff area, and the previous research on

and interpretations of Coconino Buff Ware. In Chapter 3, I will then describe

Page 12: O'Hara MA

the sites and contexts from which I have selected samples of red-on-buff and

black-on-white pottery for comparative analysis. Chapter 4 is a discussion of

archaeological approaches to analyzing pottery in which I will outline a

model of style that recognizes both a conscious level that reflects active intent

and an unconscious level that reflects learned motor habits. Chapters 5 and 6

will provide descriptions and illustrations of the pottery wares and types in

question, first the buff wares and then the white wares. In Chapter 7, I will

use measurements of element width and spacing, and of element and motif

use, to statistically characterize the samples of pottery. Using this

information, I will present a comparative analysis of the wares and types in

question. In Chapter 8, I will discuss these findings in relation to ideas about

migration, ritual, ethnicity, and exchange. I will propose a new model of

population interaction between the Colorado Plateau and Sonoran Desert

that incorporates ideas of agency and identity. This thesis is an initial

exploration of the topic, and in conclusion, I will outline future research

directions.

CHAPTER 2

HISTORICAL AND THEORETICAL BACKGROUND

ARCHAEOLOGICAL CULTURES AND THE INTERPRETATION OF THE PAST

Archaeologists interpret past human behavior through the analysis of

the material remains of past activities — including houses and other

structures and constructions; tools, utensils, and implements; trash and

refuse; and interments of the dead and their associated offerings. By

analyzing patterns of these material remains through time and space,

archaeologists have traditionally defined “Cultures” (Gladwin and Gladwin

1934; McKern 1939). While seemingly straightforward, this trait-oriented

approach reduces and simplifies the dynamics of past human behavior to

static material culture distributions.

The nuances of the meaning of culture in anthropology have been

vigorously debated (Alexander and Seidman 1990), but it has been generally

accepted that in small-scale societies culture is the behaviors and practices

that are learned, shared, and transmitted within localized communities. The

behavior and practices that anthropologists studying living cultures have

often focused on have been kinship, language, and social, economic, and

ritual organization. While cultural anthropologists have conducted their

Page 14: O'Hara MA

4

research by observing living people, archaeologists must study material

objects. However, archaeologists, as anthropologists, are interested in the

cultural practices and developments that contributed to the archaeological

record. The patterning of material remains serves as a proxy to address

questions about past cultures.

As archaeology transformed itself from a hobby into a discipline at the

turn of the century, changing from the mere collection of antiquities to the

scientific investigation of the past, the idea that archaeological cultures could

be discerned from patterning of material cultures became an important

analytic tool. Archaeologists grappled with the definition of spatial and

temporal patterns in the archaeological record, creating regional historical

sequences of cultural development. This period of archaeological thought and

practice has been called culture-historical archaeology (Trigger 1989:148-

206).

In the Southwestern United States these developments were

spearheaded by Alfred Vincent Kidder with his excavations on the Pajarito

Plateau and at Pecos Pueblo (Givens 1992). The definition of the

Basketmaker-Pueblo, or Anasazi1, cultural sequence for the Colorado Plateau

and upper Rio Grande Valley at the first Pecos Conference (Kidder 1927)

spurred culture-historical investigations in other regions of the Southwest

and the development of regional cultural sequences. These initial attempts

were eventually refined and elaborated to form boundaries of the major

Page 15: O'Hara MA

5

“cultures” in the Southwest (Figure 1). During these exciting early forays into

the uncharted past, privately endowed archaeological research foundations,

and the dynamic individuals at their helms, conducted much of the fieldwork,

laboratory analysis, and publication.

Exemplifying these trends, in 1924 a wealthy retired broker and

investor from New York, Harold S. Gladwin, was introduced to Southwestern

archaeology on a trip with Kidder to the Hopi country. After a brief

association with the Southwest Museum in Los Angeles, in 1927, Gladwin

moved to Globe, Arizona. The next year he established the Gila Pueblo

Archaeological Foundation in a reconstructed Salado pueblo in Six-Shooter

Canyon (Haury 1988). Researchers from Gila Pueblo recognized that the

Basketmaker-Pueblo sequence was not a valid model for the prehistory of the

entire Southwest. It did not fit the greater regional diversity in material

culture discovered in the Sonoran Desert and the central highlands below the

Mogollon Rim. Gila Pueblo archaeologists were instrumental in the definition

of the Hohokam culture of the Sonoran Desert (Gladwin and Gladwin 1929a,

1929b, 1930a, 1935) and the Mogollon culture of the central highlands

(Haury 1936).

Another of the independently wealthy Southwestern archaeological

scholars was Harold S. Colton, a professor of Zoology at the University of

Pennsylvania. Piqued by his son’s questions about ceramic artifacts found

while picnicking in the Flagstaff area in 1916, Colton began a life-long

research program into the archaeology of the Colorado Plateau. After

inheriting a substantial estate upon the death of his father, Colton retired

from teaching actively and moved to Flagstaff in 1926. He was instrumental

in the 1928 establishment of the Museum of Northern Arizona (MNA) in

Flagstaff, and became the institution’s first director. Colton’s initial research

focused upon small sites that had been neglected by previous researchers who

had emphasized collecting artifacts from larger sites (Downum 1988:66-78,

96-100; Miller 1991). Following this approach, MNA researchers investigated

the culture history of lesser known areas in northern and western Arizona,

identifying similarities with and differences from the cultures of adjacent

areas. These investigations led to definitions of the Sinagua (Colton 1939,

1946), Patayan (Colton 1939, 1945), and Cohonina (Hargrave 1938; Colton

1939; McGregor 1951) cultures.

Of these Southwestern archaeological cultures, the Sinagua, Hohokam,

and Ancestral Pueblo are most relevant to this research topic. Architecture,

mortuary treatment, and pottery technology are the material culture

elements that most distinguish these three cultures. These distinctive

elements apparently evolved over the course of millennia. Highly mobile

populations of Paleoindian big game hunters that entered the Southwest at

the end of the Pleistocene (Haynes 1980; Kelly and Todd 1988) developed

through time into more regionally distinctive, yet adaptively similar,

Page 18: O'Hara MA

8

populations of Archaic foragers (Jennings 1964; Irwin-Williams 1967, 1973).

These foragers adopted maize agriculture between 1000 and 500 B.C., with

the rapid diffusion of maize agriculture possibly assisted by population

growth and movement (Berry 1982; Berry and Berry 1986; Matson 1991). The

adoption of maize agriculture by archaic foragers, coupled with a more

sedentary settlement pattern, led to greater cultural divergence and the

development of the Sinagua, Hohokam, and Ancestral Pueblo as distinctive

cultures (Figure 2).

The origins of the Ancestral Pueblo sequence appear with the

Basketmaker periods during which agriculture and pottery making were

either integrated into an indigenous Archaic foraging culture, introduced by

migrants from the southern deserts, or some combination of the two

processes (Berry 1982; Matson 1991). Greater sedentism was accompanied by

changes in architecture, from slab-lined pit houses to above ground

structures, first of jacal and later of masonry. Pit structures underwent a

transformation from primarily domestic dwellings to ritual facilities, or

kivas, with formalized features. Flexed inhumation characterized mortuary

treatment. Pottery technology provides the main point of distinction between

the various subgroups of Ancestral Pueblo, but they all shared a pottery

tradition of vessels finished by scraping and fired in a reducing atmosphere.

wares characterized the Ancestral Pueblo pottery tradition region-wide

(Kidder 1924, 1962; Gumerman 1988; Cordell 1994).

The Hohokam of the pre-Classic period constructed pit houses as well,

but with a different method of construction. Ancestral Pueblo pit houses were

truly “pit” houses, because the walls of the pit formed the walls of the

dwelling. In contrast, Hohokam pit houses were not as deeply excavated and

actually were “houses-in-pits,” for the walls were built up from the bottom of

the pit (Haury 1976:72; Howard 1988:77). During the Classic period, the

Hohokam added adobe buildings and compounds to their architectural

repertoire. Pre-Classic communal architecture included both elliptical-shaped

ballcourts and formally constructed trash mounds. During the Classic, these

trash mounds developed into large adobe platform mounds, some with

structures on top. Some of the trash mounds of the pre-Classic may have

been related to cremation or mourning rituals (Haury 1976:171; McGuire

1992a). During the pre-Classic, cremation was the preferred form of

mortuary treatment, although that was largely supplanted by extended

inhumations in the Classic period. The Hohokam sequence of periods reflects

initial interpretations (Gladwin et al. 1937) of the Hohokam as Mexican

immigrants who pioneered, colonized, and settled in southern Arizona. In

contrast with Ancestral Pueblo potters, the Hohokam potters used the

paddle-and-anvil method of finishing and fired in an oxidizing atmosphere,

Page 21: O'Hara MA

11

producing red-on-buff decorated wares and both plain and red-slipped utility

wares (Haury 1976).

The Sinagua shared aspects of this pottery technology with the

Hohokam, producing a plain brown utilitarian pottery, Alameda Brown

Ware, using paddle-and-anvil finishing and an oxidizing firing atmosphere.

The preferred form of mortuary treatment was extended inhumation,

although, during the Winona focus, cremation was practiced. Small clusters

of deeply excavated pit houses characterized the early phases, gradually

shifting to larger pithouse villages, and then to masonry pueblos beginning in

the Elden phase. A variety of ritual facilities have been documented for the

Sinagua, including ballcourts and kiva-like structures. The Sinagua culture

has been divided into two regional branches — the Northern Sinagua of the

Flagstaff area and the Southern Sinagua of the Verde Valley (Colton 1946;

Downum 1992; Pilles 1981, 1996).

The eruption of Sunset Crater in A.D. 1064-1065 played an important

role in Northern Sinagua cultural development. Great changes in local

settlement patterns, accompanied by an apparent increase in agricultural

production and growth of population, occurred after the eruption. MNA

researchers identified what they believed to be evidence of immigration into

the Flagstaff region by Hohokam and Mogollon peoples at Winona Village

(McGregor 1937:46-50; Colton 1938; McGregor 1941:274-286; Colton

1946:270). The cultural units these researchers developed reflect these

Page 22: O'Hara MA

12

notions. They believed that the Winona focus represented Hohokam

immigrants, the contemporaneous Angell focus represented Mogollon

immigrants and indigenous Sinagua populations, and the succeeding Padre

focus represented a fusion of the immigrants and local peoples (Wilcox

1986:21-24; Downum1988:173-175).

As noted on Figure 1 with the subdivisons of Ancestral Pueblo, these

archaeological cultures have internal variability, both in space and in time.

The Southern Sinagua are an excellent example. The occupational sequence

of the middle Verde Valley envisioned by Breternitz (1960) has an earlier

Hohokam population with a lowland settlement pattern replaced in the

Honanki phase by a Sinagua population living in the uplands. Recent

interpretations of the Hohokam (Wilcox and Shenk 1977; Wilcox 1979; Wilcox

and Sternberg 1983; McGuire 1991) have used a model of core-periphery

relations, calling it a regional system rather than a culture. This model notes

and attempts explain the internal variability in terms of differential

participation by populations of peripheral areas in a social, ritual, and

economic organizational network centered in the core of the Salt-Gila basin.

This processual approach rejected earlier ideas of ethnicity and culture,

focusing on systems of exchange and adaptation. Whittlesey (1998) has

recently “unpacked” interpretations and models of Hohokam culture, seeking

to expand upon the regional system idea by reintroducing the idea of

Page 23: O'Hara MA

13

ethnicity and emphasizing an understanding of cultural, rather than simply

adaptive, processes.

While Figure 1 may make these cultures appear as distinct buffered

entities, gray areas of overlap exist and the archaeological record is better

known in some areas, leaving gaps that are often filled with assumptions and

presumptions. Not all cultural developments and manifestations were

contemporaneous. Thus these prehistoric culture units that archaeologists

define and discuss are idealized heuristic constructs that might in some cases

approximate true sociocultural groups, but cannot truly describe the breadth

of variability in language and culture nor the dynamics of change. Speth

(1988) has argued that these labels have no real meaning without

understanding the cultural bases for the material culture variability they

describe. These heuristic constructs of cultures with periods and phases

partition and compartmentalize space and time on a material basis, and this

may sometimes obscure the social processes that archaeologists, as

anthropologists, seek to understand: how social identities are established and

negotiated by individuals and groups.

RED-ON-BUFF AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL CULTURES IN THE FLAGSTAFF AREA

Under Harold Colton’s directorship, MNA undertook an ambitious

research program to develop cultural historical sequences for the Flagstaff

area. This research program emphasized the role of Sunset Crater’s eruption

Page 24: O'Hara MA

14

and inter-regional interaction on cultural development in the Flagstaff area,

was informed and guided by the developing science of dendrochronology, and

was highly dependent upon ceramic classification (Downum 1988:140-201).

Turkey Tanks Pithouses (NA2098) was one site excavated by MNA in the

summer of 1932 as part of MNA’s quest for datable tree-ring specimens for

chronology construction (Hargrave 1932b; McGregor 1941:287-295; Downum

1988: 117-121). NA2098 was selected “because of the large trash mound, one

of the very few noticed at that time in the area about Flagstaff, and the

presence of red-on-buff sherds” (McGregor 1941:287, 290). Although no

datable wood specimens were recovered, the excavations confirmed surface

evidence of the presence north of the Mogollon rim of several

characteristically Hohokam traits: red-on-buff pottery (both imported and

locally produced), Gila shouldered jars, formal trash mounds, and cremation

burials. Lyndon Hargrave (1932b:28), an MNA assistant in charge of

excavations, hailed this evidence as indicative of Hohokam migration into the

area.

Similar surface indications led MNA to conduct excavations at nearby

Winona Village, a site with individually numbered clusters of pit depressions

with associated trash mounds (NA2131, NA2133, NA2134, NA2135, and

NA3644). The project began as a joint project between MNA and Arizona

State Teacher’s College at Flagstaff, with field seasons in 1936 and 1937. The

excavations were completed as a Works Progress Administration project

Page 25: O'Hara MA

15

directed by MNA from 1938 to 1939 (McGregor 1937a, 1937b, 1941;

McGregor and Wetherill 1938; Colton 1946:180-202, 222-236; Downum

1988:130-131, 134-135). These excavations revealed more locally produced

red-on-buff pottery and even more Hohokam traits: a ballcourt (NA2132), a

Hohokam style pit house (NA2133A, see Haury 1976:53-57), and 45

cremation burials.

In their Handbook of Northern Arizona Pottery Wares, Colton and

Hargrave (1937:178-183) defined these locally produced red-on-buff sherds as

Coconino Buff Ware. Generally, the taxonomic system used by Colton and

Hargrave defines ceramic wares on the basis of manufacturing technology —

forming techniques, paste and temper composition, and firing atmosphere.

The classification then divides wares into types based on stylistic differences

in decorative treatment. The local production of Coconino Buff Ware was

determined by the presence of local volcanic tuff or cinders used as temper

added to the clay to affect the clay’s plasticity, reducing shrinkage during

drying. Presence or absence of a buff-colored slip distinguishes the Coconino

Buff Ware's two decorated types: Coconino Red-on-buff (slipped) and Winona

Red-on-buff (unslipped). Each type has two varieties differentiated by

temper: 1) tuff, or 2) cinder. In the type description, characterizations of the

design styles and vessel forms are vague, but McGregor (1941:46, 283)

described them as copies of Hohokam pottery.

Page 26: O'Hara MA

16

In the emerging model of cultural boundaries and interaction, Colton

(1938; 1946:270, 311; 1960:9-12, 44; Downum 1988:171-189, 267-269) used

the evidence from Winona Village and Turkey Tanks to support a model of

large scale migration into the Flagstaff region by diverse ethnic groups,

including the Hohokam. Colton hypothesized these migrations to have begun

after A.D. 1064 in response to the eruption of Sunset Crater. The ash fall from

the volcanic eruption was believed to have increased the agricultural

potential of the region because of its moisture retaining capacity. Colton

believed this to have promoted a prehistoric land rush to capitalize upon the

enhanced agricultural possibilities. Probably colored by these conclusions,

Colton classified the Coconino Buff Ware types as Hohokam Buff Wares in

his book The Sinagua (1946:endpiece). The agricultural benefits of the ash

fall were believed to have been short lived, and as the ash blew away, conflict

led to aggregation into the larger Pueblos of the later phases of the Sinagua

sequence.

As regional historical sequences of cultural development became well

established, the culture-historical approach fell from favor. Walter Taylor

(1948) criticized culture-history’s focus on material culture and its spatial

and temporal distribution as sterile description lacking explanatory goals.

This critique and a growing optimism about the interpretive potential of

material culture inspired new generation of archaeologists. Rather than

viewing archaeological cultures as clusters of traits, the new archaeologists

Page 27: O'Hara MA

17

viewed them as systems that articulated with environments via processes of

adaptation (Trigger 1989:294-319; Pinsky 1992). In the Southwest, the

processual school of archaeology has primarily focused on social organization,

economic exchange, and environmental adaption (e.g. Longacre 1970; Earle

and Erickson 1977; Gumerman 1988). In the process, ideas of migration,

culture history, and historical contingency were dismissed in favor of

adaptive studies.

The research of John Wilson of Harvard University introduced

processual studies to Flagstaff area archaeology in the 1960s (Downum

1988:274-278). After surveying an area on Anderson Mesa southeast of

Flagstaff, Wilson (1969) questioned Colton=s Ablack sand@ hypothesis, arguing

that the same processes of agricultural extensification and population

aggregation occurred at the same time in areas without any significant ash

fall. He also questioned the cultural significance of the constellation of traits

called Sinagua, not accepting Colton=s (1939:5) use of the term Atribe@ in

association with the Sinagua. Wilson=s challenge to the Colton model of

Flagstaff prehistory spurred further questions about Colton=s assumptions

about population increase, climate change, and migration.

In this new theoretical vein, Peter Pilles of the Coconino National

Forest and others have challenged Colton=s land rush model (Pilles 1978,

1979; Fish et al. 1980). Pilles has discounted the possibility of a Hohokam

migration, seeing the Hohokam traits as too few and too isolated to represent

Page 28: O'Hara MA

18

large-scale population movement. He has proposed an alternative model of

Hohokam influence in the Flagstaff area involving the development of

formalized exchange relations between the two regions (Pilles 1979:472; Fish

et al. 1980:169-174; Downum 1988:287-290). The ballcourt communities may

have been loci for these exchange relations, possibly occupied by resident

Hohokam traders. As part of this challenge, Pilles has asserted that the

designs on Coconino Buff Ware are actually “identical to [the local white ware

design styles] Flagstaff or Walnut Black-on-whites” (Pilles 1979:472; Fish et

al. 1980:164). Pilles questions Coconino Buff Ware's connection to Hohokam

pottery, although possible “inspiration” is allowed.

These assessments of Coconino Buff Ware designs by Colton,

McGregor, and Pilles appear to be based upon subjective impressions. Prior

stylistic analyses have been limited to observations based on the presence or

absence of certain elements. None of the researchers has performed a

methodical comparative analysis of the design styles in question: Coconino,

Winona, and Sacaton Red-on-buffs (Figure3); and Black Mesa, Holbrook

(varieties A and B), Sosi, Walnut, and Flagstaff Black-on-whites (Figure 4).

Formal stylistic comparisons of these types could resolve some of the

questions regarding the genesis of the decorative designs on Coconino Buff

Ware. The association of these decorated types with either the Hohokam

decorative tradition or the Ancestral Pueblo decorative tradition affects

interpretations of the interaction between populations on the Colorado

Plateau and those in the Sonoran Desert.

While the focus of this thesis will be on a stylistic comparison of the

decorated types in question, other evidence about pottery technology will be

used to support assertions made based on the stylistic analyses. These

interpretations of the pottery will be combined with an analysis of other

traits of material culture — including architecture and mortuary practices —

and interpreted in a framework that considers the roles of migration, inter-

regional exchange, communal ritual, and cultural emulation in the

establishment of social and ethnic identity.

CHAPTER 3

DESCRIPTION OF THE SITES

Only 22 sites with Coconino Buff Wares are known by the author to

have been recorded in the Flagstaff area (McGregor 1941; Colton 1946; Smith

1952; Wendorf et al. 1956; Kelly 1969; Pilles 1969; Wilson 1969; Hudgens

1974; Fish et al. 1980; Wilcox 1986; Bradley et al. 1993; Kamp and Whittaker

1998; personal observations of the MNA Ceramic Type Collection 1997). The

distribution of the Coconino Buff Wares is restricted to the area east of the

San Francisco Peaks (Figure 5). Two of these sites, Turkey Tanks Pithouses

and the NA2133 cluster at Winona Village, were chosen for analysis. The

sites were selected for three reasons : 1) published sherds counts (Colton

1946:179, 186-187) indicated that these sites had significant quantities of

Coconino Buff Ware, 2) Turkey Tanks Pithouses is the type site for the

Coconino Buff Wares, and 3) Winona Village provided critical evidence for

Colton’s hypothesized Hohokam migration.

TURKEY TANKS PITHOUSES

Turkey Tanks Pithouses (NA2098) is located on the south side of San

Excavated by Lyndon Hargrave of MNA in 1932 (Hargrave 1932b; McGregor

1941:287-295; Colton 1946:176-180), the site consists of two excavated pit

structures (NA2098A and NA2098B), an excavated trash mound (NA2098T),

an unexcavated trash mound, and an excavated cremation area (Figure 6).

While one of the purposes of the MNA fieldwork that summer was to

secure wood specimens for dendrochronological dating (Hargrave 1932b:25),

none was recovered at NA2098. In spite of this, Hargrave (1932b:27) termed

the excavations as “The most important of the season.” This site had been

selected because of the surface presence of Red-on-Buff pottery and Gila

shoulder vessel forms and the desire to investigate “Hohokam contact to

Pueblo II” (Hargrave 1932b:27). The recovery of both imported and locally

produced Red-on-Buff, cremation burials, and a trash mound was considered

evidence “indicating a migration of Hohokam peoples to this region”

(Hargrave 1932b:28).

All ceramic types have a “type site,” the provenience from which the

first described examples were collected. Turkey Tanks Pithouses is type site

for the Coconino Buff Ware types. The only excavated feature at the Turkey

Tanks Pithouses that yielded Red-on-Buff pottery was the trash mound

NA2098T. This trash mound was completely excavated after having first a

central block and then five radial trenches excavated. Other than a sketch of

the excavation units, no notes or photographs exist in the MNA site files or

photo archives about the excavation of this feature, preventing any detailed

analysis of the stratigraphy which could allow interpretations about the

construction of the trash mound. A smaller trash mound to the south was left

unexcavated. North of NA2098T was a cremation area which contained three

cremation trenches with burned bones and two secondary interments of

ceramic vessels filled with burned bones (McGregor 1941:294-295).

Colton (1946:178) claimed that one of the pit houses, NA2098B (Figure

7), exhibited “Hohokam influence.” McGregor (1941:288) described it as “one

of the first structures in this region thought to have been Hohokam,” on the

basis of the posthole pattern and the shallow excavation (McGregor

1941:291). However, there was no evidence of posts to indicate support of a

central gable, and the lining of portions of the wall with basalt slabs is not a

typical Hohokam construction technique. But the masonry could be additive,

related to post-construction renovation of the structure. The other pit house,

NA2098A, was a deeper masonry lined structure that had been later

subdivided with an interior wall.

Colton’s (1946:180) counts of the plain wares from the analyzed lots2

from NA2098T indicate an assemblage dominated by Alameda Brown Ware

(82% of all plainware sherds counted). This high frequency of Alameda Brown

Ware at NA2098T indicates Sinagua cultural affiliation (Colton 1946). The

lesser frequencies of Tusayan Gray Ware (12%) and San Francisco Mountain

Gray Ware (5%) probably indicate exchange relations with the Kayenta and

Cohonina. In addition to Coconino Buff Wares, the decorated pottery

assemblage includes (Colton 1946:179) Little Colorado and Tusayan White

Wares, Tsegi Orange Wares, San Francisco Mountain Gray Ware, and

Hohokam Buff Ware, indicating probable exchange relations with the

Kayenta and Winslow Anasazi, the Cohonina, and the Hohokam.

Hargrave also recovered shell jewelry of various forms and made from

several species. Although McGregor (1941:293) does not report what features

these artifacts were excavated from, they include a bilobed bead (no species),

an Olivella sp. bead, three whole Glycymeris sp. bracelets, eight fragments of

Glycymeris sp. bracelets, one Haliotis sp. pendant, and one Turritella sp.

pendant. The presence of these shell artifacts, especially those of Glycymeris

sp. and Turritella sp. from the Gulf of California (McGregor 1941:215),

provides further evidence of probable exchange relations with the Hohokam,

who are believed to have controlled the flow of shell from the Gulf of

California into the northern Southwest (McGuire 1985; McGuire and Howard

1987; McGuire 1992b).

WINONA VILLAGE

From 1936 to 1939, McGregor led MNA excavations at Winona Village,

a large grouping of pit houses and trash mounds with a ballcourt (Figure 8).

Winona Village is located in a pinyon-juniper woodland four kilometers south

of Turkey Tanks Pithouses at an elevation of 1,930 meters. In addition to the

ballcourt (NA2132), five individually numbered clusters of features were

identified — NA2131, NA2133, NA2134, and NA3644. Tree-ring dates from

structures at Winona Village indicate an occupation span from around A.D.

1080 to 1120 (Robinson et al. 1975:88-91; Wilcox 1986:21-24)

At NA2131, one pit house (K) and a three room masonry pueblo (A)

were excavated, and a trash mound (T) was trenched and tested. At NA2133,

five pit houses (A, B, C, D, G) were excavated, a trash mound (T) was

trenched and tested, four pit depressions (E, F, H, I) were tested, and a

cremation area (X) was tested. At NA2134, two pit houses (A, E) were

excavated, a cremation area (X) with 24 interments was excavated, and a

trash mound (T) was trenched. At NA2135 three pit houses (A, B, C) were

excavated and one pit depression (D) was tested. At NA3644, nine pit houses

(A, C, H, J, K, L, M, P, Q) were excavated, three trash mounds (D, I, O) were

trenched, one trash mound (B) was trenched and tested, and one pit

depression (R) was tested. Two pit houses had complex histories of

construction and renovation. The excavation of NA2134E revealed two floor

plans and that of NA3644Q revealed three.

Located in the center of the site, the NA2133 cluster can be divided

into two distinct groups of features — 1) pit houses A, B, C, and D, and trash

mound T, and 2) pit house G and tested features E, F, H, I, and X. The first

group is situated on top of a low ridge with a commanding view of the rest of

the site. Within this group is the feature with the greatest frequency of red-

Page 41: O'Hara MA

31

on-buff pottery according to published sherd counts for Winona Village

(Colton 1946). The pit house NA2133A was reported to have Coconino Red-

on-buff comprising 35% of the decorated sherd assemblage (Colton 1946:186).

A large Winona Red-on-buff jar bearing a Gila shoulder (Figure 9) was found

crushed on the floor and a fragments of two Coconino Red-on-buff heavy

walled were found inside the doorway (Figure 10). The structure had been

burned with a rich floor assemblage. While McGregor lists 22 vessels

(1941:92), the MNA artifact catalog has 25 vessels or fragmentary vessels

from NA2133A (Downum 1988:428-429). The other decorated vessels, four

Black Mesa Black-on-white bowls and one Tusayan Black-on-red bowl, are of

Kayenta origin. Sinagua cultural affiliation is indicated by the plainware

vessel assemblage, with 14 Alameda Brown Ware vessels (82%). The three

other plainware vessels — a Tusayan Corrugated jar, a Deadmans Fugitive

Red jar, and a Forestdale Red bowl — indicate exchange with the Kayenta,

Cohonina, and Mogollon, respectively.

This pit house (Figure 11) is the type site of the Winona Focus

(McGregor 1941:89), a culture historical unit that was believed to represent

migration of Hohokam peoples to the Flagstaff area (McGregor 1937a;

McGregor 1941:274, 281-283; Colton 1946:270). It shares many structural

similarities with Hohokam house-in-pit construction methods, in fact it

seems typical of Haury’s Sacaton phase type S-1 house (Haury 1976:53-57;

Figure 12). It was built in a shallow pit with rounded corners. Postholes

indicate that posts were used to support a central gable along the wide axis of

the structure and that there were exterior wall posts set in a groove around

the edge of the excavated pit. Presence of the characteristic step in the

entrance way could not be determined because of previous pothunting in that

portion of the structure (McGregor 1941: 90). These structural similarities

with Hohokam pit houses of the Sedentary period were immediately noticed

(McGregor 1941:89). Of the six “Hohokam houses” of the Winona focus

excavated at Winona Village identified by Colton (1946:270) — NA2133A,

NA2133B, NA2133C, NA2134E1, NA2135B, and NA3644Q1 — only

NA2133A, in this author’s opinion, can be securely associated with Hohokam

construction methods.

While no wood specimens amenable to dendrochronological analysis

were recovered from Turkey Tanks Pithouses, numerous samples were

recovered at Winona Village (McGregor 1941:17-19). Because NA2133A had

been burned, it yielded numerous well preserved specimens, including

charred wall posts in their original positions. McGregor (1941:18) reports 15

dates for this structure, Harlan (1962:85-87) lists 28, Breternitz (1966:6)

mentions 52, but claims duplication of original timbers. These duplicates

were eliminated by Robinson (1975:88-90) and Downum (1988:428), who

provide 34 dates, with quality codes (Table 1). The cluster of cutting dates in

1086 indicate that NA2133A was probably built that year (Downum

1988:428), with a possible occupation span of 1086 through 1101.

Great variability in mortuary treatment was practiced at Winona

Village. Of the 67 human burials excavated, 45 (67%) were cremations

(McGregor 1941:262-270). Cremations were excavated from four features, two

formal cremation areas (NA2133X and NA2134X) and from two trash

mounds (NA2134T and NA3644B). Great variability in the treatment of the

cremated remains occurred. Two were left scattered on the surface where the

body had been burned, the remaining 43 were placed in shallow pits — 20 as

secondary interments in ceramic vessels, two in pits covered with bowls, six

in pits covered with large sherds, and 15 in pits with no container or cover.

While those cremations that had been treated as secondary interments had

more offerings, including more vessels and shell and stone jewelry, the

scattered cremation from NA2133X (McGregor 1941:266-267) had five

ceramic vessels, a nose plug (no material given), and burnt turquoise (no

quantity given).

Page 48: O'Hara MA

38

The 22 inhumations were excavated from two different contexts

(McGregor 1941:271-273). Most (18) were excavated from within and beneath

trash mounds. The other four were excavated from the fill of three pit houses

(NA2133C, NA2133G, and NA2134E), and one of these was an infant. None

of the inhumations have offerings as numerous or as varied as the greater

endowed cremations, although previous pothunting was noted at the site

(McGregor 1937:42). As noted in Chapter One, extended and flexed

inhumation has been used as cultural marker, distinguishing the Sinagua

culture from the Ancestral Pueblo. Of the burials with information on this

practice (n=18), 72% were extended inhumations, indicating Sinagua cultural

affiliation.

From the first excavations at Winona Village, the abundance of shell

has been noted (McGregor 1937:37). This abundance was not only as finished

jewelry, but also as debitage from the manufacture of shell products and

unworked shell to serve as raw materials (McGregor 1941:214-215). The shell

was analyzed to determine the species present and their geographic origins

(McGregor 1941:215; Wigglesworth 1985), 21 marine and one freshwater

species, as well as land snail shells, were identified. All of the marine species

are from the Pacific, but two different areas of origin can be identified – the

Gulf of California to the south and California’s Pacific coast to the west. One

species is found only on the California coast, six are found in both areas, and

14 species are found only in the Gulf of California. As mentioned before, the

Page 49: O'Hara MA

39

Hohokam are believed to have controlled exchange mechanisms that brought

shell from the Gulf of California to the northern Southwest (McGuire 1985;

McGuire and Howard 1987; McGuire 1992b), and the dominance of shell from

this source in the assemblage indicates strong exchange relations with the

Hohokam.

THE TRASH MOUNDS

A trash mound from each of these sites was chosen to select samples of

red-on-buff and black-on-white pottery for comparative analysis. Based on

several lines of evidence (the orientation of houses, the limited range of

temporally sensitive pottery types, tree-ring dates, and the relatively shallow

depth of the mounds), I infer that the red-on-buff and black-on-white sherds

found together in the same trash deposits were in use as vessels during

roughly contemporaneous periods and resulted from the stream of refuse of a

limited number of households. These depositional contexts should allow

chronologically secure comparisons of the different types.

Of the seven trash mounds at Winona Village, Colton (1946) presents

sherds counts for only NA2131T, NA2134T and NA3644B. The first two have

low frequencies of red-on-buff pottery while the last has none reported. Sherd

counts are not published for the trash mound associated with the Hohokam pit

house, nor are any contained in the site file at MNA. However, the presence of

a fragmentary Coconino Red-on-buff heavy walled vessel (Figure 14) from this

trash mound, the inclusion of 14 red-on-buff sherds from this trash mound in

the MNA ceramic type collection, and the presence of red-on-buff pottery at

three of the four pit houses in close proximity, provided a strong indication

that more red-on-buff could be present in the apparently unanalyzed

collections at MNA. This mound was only trenched and a significant portion of

the resource remains on site for possible future investigation (McGregor

1941:11; personal observations 1997). Based on the tree-ring dates of the

structures nearby, Douglass (1987:410) inferred this trash mound’s period

accumulation to have been from 1072 to 1106.

At Turkey Tanks Pithouses, only one of the trash mounds, NA2098T,

was excavated. After trenching, the remainder of the mound was completely

excavated. This feature was the only excavated feature at the site to yield red-

on-buff pottery. Both locally produced Coconino Buff Wares and imported

Sacaton Red-on-buff sherds were recovered, comprising 9% of the decorated

sherd assemblage according to published counts (Colton 1946:179). Neither

excavated structure yielded datable tree-ring specimens, so the occupation

span of the site, and hence the accumulation period of the mound are difficult

to determine. While the presence of only two structures and a limited number

of human burials indicates a brief occupation, the possible renovations of the

two structures may indicate a longer period of occupation. In any case, the

occupation apparently was brief, perhaps no more than a few decades at most.

CHAPTER 4

THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF POTTERY

Pottery is an ubiquitous artifact at most Southwestern archaeological

sites. Its durability assures its preservation. Pottery is also a highly

informative material class of artifact. If culture is defined as behaviors and

practices that are learned, shared, and transmitted, then pottery

manufacture is especially amenable to cultural analysis. Various choices in

how to proceed with the manufacture of ceramic vessels are culturally

determined decisions. Where should clays be procured? What tempering

agent should be added to the clay? How should the vessel be formed and

finished? What shape should it take? How should it be decorated? How

should it be fired? Alternatives could be taken at each stage, each leading to

different results. Pottery contains many clues of distinctive cultural practices

that make it an excellent artifact class to investigate questions of community

and regional social organization (Shepard 1956; Rice 1987; Sinopoli 1991).

CLASSIFICATION OF POTTERY

Beginning with W. H. Holmes (1886), the analysis of pottery has

played a central role in Southwestern archaeology. A system of binomial

Page 53: O'Hara MA

43

nomenclature has been developed to describe ceramic variability (Gladwin

and Gladwin 1930; Hargrave 1932a; Colton and Hargrave 1937). This method

of hierarchical taxonomy borrows much from biological classificatory systems

(see esp. Hargrave 1932a). Wares differ based on materials and construction

techniques, while types generally differ based on decorative treatment. Type

names consist of two parts, hence the binomial nomenclature, a geographical

reference and a descriptive term (exs. Black Mesa Black-on-white, Winona

Red-on-buff, Sunset Red, Deadmans Gray).

Southwestern prehistoric pottery has been notably used for

chronometry (McGregor 1938; Breternitz 1966). The association of pottery

with tree-ring samples from multiple locations allows inferences to be made

regarding the production and use periods of particular types. Therefore, in

the absence of tree-ring dates, sites can be dated on the basis of what pottery

types are present or absent. Expanding upon this, several researchers (Colton

1946:248-254; Wilson 1969:Table 20; Downum and Sullivan 1990:11) have

identified groups of co-occurring types that characterize particular time

periods.

While most notably used for chronology construction, ceramic

typologies as heuristic constructions should also be useful for elucidating past

human behavior. Rather than merely describing the material variability of

ceramic artifacts, they should implicitly describe the behavioral variability of

prehistoric potters. While explicitly material and based upon biological

Page 54: O'Hara MA

44

analogy (Hargrave 1932a:7-8), a point that has been critiqued (Brew 1941),

the method of binomial classification (Gladwin and Gladwin 1930; Hargrave

1932a; Colton and Hargrave 1937), with refinements (Wheat et al. 1958;

Gifford 1960; Smith 1962), was explicitly designed to investigate prehistoric

sociocultural variability through material culture variability.

SOURCING POTTERY PRODUCTION

Since prehistoric potters generally used locally available materials

(clays and tempers) to manufacture pottery, these materials can be analyzed

to indicate geological provenience of the raw materials. This geologic sourcing

allows the identification of the probable area within which the pottery was

manufactured. This characteristic makes tracing the production and

exchange of pottery vessels possible through many methods of optical and

chemical analysis (Rice 1987:371-404). Merely inspecting Coconino Buff Ware

sherds with the naked eye allows the trained observer to ascertain their

origin in the Flagstaff area based on the readily observable mineral

constituents in the temper — volcanic tuff and cinders. But more

sophisticated chemical testing methods — like Inductively Coupled Plasma

Spectroscopy, Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis, or X-Ray

Diffraction — could determine the elemental constituents of the clay used

that could be matched with sample clays from the environment. These

Page 55: O'Hara MA

45

techniques have successfully applied to Southwestern pottery with very

revealing results (e.g. Zedeño 1994; Triadan 1997; Douglass 1987).

STYLE AND POTTERY

The archaeological analysis of pottery can be divided into two basic

approaches — the investigation of functional aspects of manufacturing

technology and the investigation of decorative aspects of style. Style can be

broadly defined as a way of doing, but the analytic meaning of style in

archaeology has been thoroughly debated [for reviews see Plog (1983) and

Hegmon (1993)], with two basic positions developing. Sackett (1977, 1986)

has proposed a model of “isochrestic variation,” where stylistic variability

derives from culturally conditioned choices made between functionally

equivalent alternatives. For Sackett, style is a passive reflection of

historically and temporally contingent learned behavior. Wobst (1977) and

Weissner (1983, 1984) offer an information model of style. The cultural

function of stylistic variability is to encode information. This model of style

sees it actively employed by its producers to communicate information about

their identity. While Sackett (1985, 1986) and Weissner (1985) have engaged

in a spirited debate, it seems that the positions may not really be mutually

exclusive. Some aspects of style may passively reflect learned behaviors,

while others are actively employed to communicate information.

Page 56: O'Hara MA

46

Viewing style as a way of doing makes it almost a subset of Bourdieu’s

(1977b) habitus. Bourdieu develops a “theory of practice” that attempts to

explain the functioning of mental templates that allow individuals to act and

react with culturally appropriate manners in social situations. Bourdieu

broadly defines the habitus as being “objectively organized as strategies

without being the product of a genuine strategic intention” (1977b:73). This

may seem contradictory, but it explains how style, as a manner of creating,

can both reflect learned behavior passively and actively signal intentions.

Some levels of style may simply reflect what has been learned as culturally

appropriate ways of doing that are not performed with strategic intent, but

are organized to correspond to the expectations of others as to what is correct.

Other levels of style may be strategically manipulated to communicate to

others the intentions or identity of the creator.

As either the passive product of learned behavior or the active product

of intentional messaging, stylistic variability can inform archaeologists about

cultural relationships. Decorated pottery is a valuable material for

investigating stylistic variability and the cultural relations of its producers.

Variation in line width has been shown to be a valuable indicator of both

cultural interaction and temporal placement (Voss 1980; Plog and Hantman

1986). Line width reflects learned motor skills — how did the potter learn to

hold the brush and make a stroke? What tools, like brushes, the potter was

taught were appropriate to use may affect outcomes. Line width, and

Page 57: O'Hara MA

47

similarly line spacing, solid element size, and solid element spacing, all

reflect unconscious levels of stylistic variability. The size and spacing of the

design elements result from learned motor skills and are not likely to be

intentionally employed to signal information.

The analysis of decorated pottery uses a hierarchical method of

description and analysis (Friedrich 1970). The lowest level of design is the

individual element, the most simple unit used in the construction of the

design. Elements include lines, triangles, squares, etc. Elements are

combined together to form recognizable design components called motifs. A

simple example of a motif is two lines combined together to form a cross.

Motifs and elements are arranged together in the design field according to a

layout. A layout is the basic structural organization of the design. While the

size and spacing of elements may reflect simple motor habits, the

combination of elements into motifs and the structuring of motifs and

elements in layouts reflect deliberate choices made by the potter.

How much these choices result from the passive reflection of cultural

norms or from the individual expression of meaning and identity is difficult

to determine. The weakness of the information model of style is trying to

determine what the producer intended to signal. Critics could accuse this

model of style requiring the practice of “paleopsychology” that may reflect the

analyst’s desired understanding, rather than the producer’s intended

meaning. It is in this vein that Sackett (1982:64) criticized the whole concept

Page 58: O'Hara MA

48

of style as being merely that part of “formal variation that we happen to

regard as being stylistic significant.”

This discussion may have seemed to presuppose that any stylistic

analysis of pottery must be of the decorative designs. But, if style is a way of

doing, then methods of manufacture and vessel forms are also components of

style. These components would seem to fit Sackett’s idea of style as choices

between functional equivalents. The methods used to form, finish, and fire

the vessels probably have little potential for carrying information, however

they reflect cultural choices between functional equivalents — paddling or

scraping? Oxidizing or reducing atmosphere? The functional uses for which

vessels are intended restricts the forms used, but visible differences in vessel

form can bear information, most simply indicating vessel function, but also

carrying messages of identity. Michael Graves (1981:105) found that the

forms of Kalinga rice cooking pots in the Philippines seem "to be actively

employed as a marker of important social boundaries ... at the regional level."

Similarly, Ingrid Herbich (1987) found that the form of beer drinking vessels

was distinct community marker among the Luo of Kenya.

Saitta has proposed different signaling potential for functionally

different vessels. Information laden style “should be associated with artifacts

requiring little post-production maintenance or artifacts which have low

turnover rates, so that message integrity and longevity is maximized” (quoted

in Plog 1983:138). Saitta assumes that investment in a stylistic message

Page 59: O'Hara MA

49

should be balanced by a long broadcast period. Thus cooking pots should

convey less message than serving vessels because cooking vessels have a

shorter use life. However, Wobst (1977) noted that ceramic vessels as

domestic utensils would have low visibility and would not be particularly

useful for carrying messages outside the household. But serving vessels may

be used in contexts outside of the household, when sharing food with other

households at feasts, for example. In such circumstances, serving vessels

could serve an important function, identifying who is sharing with whom. I

would also argue that ceramic vessels are not always domestic utensils, some

vessels apparently were for ritual use. Likewise, in order to maximize the

signal, the style bearing object need not be durable. Instead of a long-term

low intensity broadcast, maybe a brief, high intensity broadcast in a ritual

context is desired.

Style has two levels of expression — an unconscious level that reflects

learned behaviors and motor skills, and a conscious level that reflects the

strategic use of stylistic variability to encode information. These different

aspects can be approached through different analytical means to investigate

issues of cultural interaction and affiliation. I will present descriptions of the

buff and white wares, illustrating the decorative designs and discussing the

vessel forms and manufacturing technologies. I will then compare the two

wares, contrasting different stylistic approaches.

CHAPTER 5

CLASSIFICATION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE RED-ON-BUFF POTTERY

When the excavations at Turkey Tanks Pithouses and Winona Village

occurred, the methods of ceramic classification and the regional ceramic

typologies were still being developed and fine-tuned (Downum 1988:154-168).

When confronted with the red-on-buff sherds from these sites, MNA

researchers immediately recognized the local manufacture of some of the red-

on-buff sherds and the exotic origins of others on the basis of the tempers

used. The locally produced pottery was previously unidentified and needed to

be classified. This was initially done by Colton and Hargrave in their

Handbook of Northern Arizona Pottery Wares (1937:178-183), but debate

exists in the literature over the ware classification of Flagstaff area

red-on-buff types, the typological treatment of this pottery has questionable

points, and the decorative treatment has not been adequately described.

THE WARE QUESTION

Colton and Hargrave (1937:178-183) originally designated the red-on-

buff pottery with volcanic ash or tuff temper found at Turkey Tanks

Page 61: O'Hara MA

51

Pithouses and Winona Village as Coconino Buff Ware. Vessels of this ware

were formed and finished with the paddle-and-anvil technique. The volcanic

ash or tuff temper varies from coarse to fine. The surface is often slipped,

usually poorly slipped, with wiping marks often visible. Decorative designs

were executed with an iron oxide mineral paint. Coconino Buff Ware vessels

were fired in an oxidizing atmosphere, resulting in a buff, orange, or brown

core.

Later, Colton (1946:endpiece) classified the types formerly considered

Coconino Buff Ware as Hohokam Buff Ware. This classificatory revision may

have been biased by Colton’s Hohokam migration hypothesis (Colton

1946:270, 311; Colton 1960:9-12, 44). In a recent ceramic typology for the

Flagstaff area prepared to analyze data recovered during the Transwestern

Pipeline Expansion Project (Mills et al. 1993), the types originally classified

as Coconino Buff Ware are classified as Alameda Brown Ware (Mills et al.

1993:16-17, 80-81). While not explained, I assume this re-classification to be

based on the technological similarities between the Coconino Buff Ware and

Alameda Brown Ware. The same tempering, forming, finishing, and firing

methods were used in both wares. The significant difference between

Coconino Buff Ware and Alameda Brown Ware are the designs executed with

an iron oxide paint on Coconino Buff Ware. However, other painted pottery

with similar technology, like Sunset and Turkey Hill White-on-red, were

never considered separate wares.

Page 62: O'Hara MA

52

There may be another difference precluding classification of the

Flagstaff area red-on-buff types within the taxon of Alameda Brown Ware.

Colton (1941:20) asserts that different clays were used to manufacture the

buff and brown pottery. He proposed that the buff-firing clay came from a

low-iron alluvial source, whereas the brown-firing clay came from a higher-

iron residual source. This use of secondary versus primary sources may

reflect differences in resource procurement strategies that may be culturally

significant. In the vicinity of Turkey Tanks and Winona Village, primary clay

deposits would occur on top of the basalt mesas while secondary clay deposits

would occur along Walnut Creek, San Francisco Wash, and other drainages.

Exploitation of these different sources would have been by deliberate, most

likely determined by cultural choice. Another possible explanation for the

different clay colors is an additive. Hohokam potters of the Salt-Gila Basin

added salt and/or caliche to “bleach” clay to fire a lighter color (David Abbott

personal communication). If this practice, rather than gathering clays from

different sources, were the reason for a lighter color for Coconino Buff Ware,

it would also be the result of a specific culturally-conditioned choices.

I will follow the original (Colton and Hargrave 1937:178-183)

designation of Coconino Buff Ware as a distinct and separate from two very

technologically similar wares, Hohokam Buff Ware and Alameda Brown

Ware. I believe this classification reflects certain important aspects of human

behavior, allowing the classification to be more than an exercise in typology.

Page 63: O'Hara MA

53

THE TYPE AND VARIETY QUESTION

Colton and Hargrave (1937:178-183) defined two decorated types for

Coconino Buff Ware. The presence or absence of a buff-colored slip

distinguishes these two types: Coconino Red-on-buff (slipped) and Winona

Red-on-buff (unslipped). Each type has two varieties differentiated by

temper: 1) tuff, or 2) ash. The Transwestern Pipeline Expansion Project

(Mills et al. 1993:81) followed the same method for distinguishing the two

types, but only recognized these types as having ash temper, possibly because

the small number of sherds recovered (n=5) did not include any with tuff

temper (Bradley et al. 1993).

There are problems with this typological treatment, or more

specifically, with an uneven application of criteria used to discriminate types.

In Coconino Buff Ware, the presence or absence of slip distinguishes types

and the use of cinder or tuff temper distinguishes varieties. In contrast,

Tusayan White Ware types and Sacaton Red-on-buff can be either slipped or

unslipped without being different types, but some Alameda Brown Ware

types and varieties are differentiated by the presence or absence of a slip. In

Alameda Brown Ware, the use of cinder or tuff temper distinguishes types,

not varieties, as it does in Coconino Buff Ware (Table 2). It would seem that

typological distinctions in Coconino Buff Ware could be just as well based on

the tempering agent used, rather than on presence or absence of slip, which

might better be used to distinguish varieties.

Colton (1958)

The current typology of Coconino Red-on-buff and Winona Red-on-buff

differentiated by the presence and absence of a slip, with cinder and tuff

tempered varieties, appears to be inconsistent with the application of similar

criteria to Alameda Brown Ware. However, inconsistent criteria are also used

to divide Alameda Brown Ware into types and varieties. I will refer to all

Flagstaff area red-on-buff sherds simply as Coconino Buff Ware, avoiding

these pitfalls. Before proposing a revision of the standard typology (Colton

and Hargrave 1937; Colton 1958), the opinions of several archaeologists who

specialize in the prehistoric pottery Flagstaff area should be consulted.

Page 65: O'Hara MA

55

DECORATIVE TREATMENT OF COCONINO BUFF WARE

In the original type descriptions (Colton and Hargrave 1937:182-183),

the painted decorations are not well described. The designs are said to

“apparently cover vessel from rim to near base” with decorative elements

consisting of “lines and (occasionally) solid areas.” Only one type sherd is

illustrated (Colton and Hargrave 1937:183). Three others are illustrated by

McGregor (1937b:Plate XX). McGregor (1941:45-46) later provided a better

description, emphasizing the use of repeated block layouts and the

predominance of right triangles translated and opposed into the “opposed

serrated barb” motif (Figure 14). McGregor noted without elaboration that

the designs are “in imitation” (1937a:30) or “copies” (1941:46, 283) of

Hohokam pottery designs.

In addition to the opposed serrated barb motif (Figure 15), the designs

on Coconino Buff Ware are characterized by thin parallel lines, often wavy or

jagged (Figure 16); fringe attached to lines (Figure 17); hatching, with the

hatched areas often doubly capped with jagged lines (Figure 18), although

occasionally singly capped (Figure 19); and both rectilinear and curvilinear

scrolls (Figure 20). The brushwork and the execution of design is generally

poor. As noted by McGregor (1941:46), layouts visible on the reconstructed

vessels and interpretable from sherds use repeated block motifs, often

alternating opposed serrated barb motifs with rectilinear scrolls (Figure 21,

see also Figure 9).

COCONINO BUFF WARE VESSEL FORMS

Some characteristic Hohokam vessel forms appear in the Coconino

Buff Ware, as well as in contemporaneous Alameda Brown Ware types. These

vessel forms include jars with Gila shoulders and heavy-walled vessels. A

Gila shoulder is an angular change of direction of vessel walls near the base

(Figure 22). The Gila shoulder is a common vessel form of Sacaton

Red-on-buff, the Hohokam decorated type of the Sedentary period. What

Haury (1976:205-206) identifies as a decline in the quality of Sedentary

period decorated pottery may be evidence of increased production. The

production of decorated pottery may have become a specialized craft activity

during the Sedentary period, with workshops associated with residence

groups (Haury 1976:194-197). It may be possible that the development of the

Gila shoulder by Hohokam potters was related to this specialized production.

The Gila shoulder vessel form may have assisted the mass-production of

large jars from flattened slabs of clay using the paddle-and-anvil forming and

finishing method.

The mass production of Coconino Buff Ware by craft specialists hardly

seems likely given the ware’s low frequency. Gila shoulders on Alameda

Brown Ware jars appear to be higher on the vessel and not as sharp as those

on Hohokam jars (Downum, personal communication, 1997). Therefore, the

Gila shoulder may not have the same function in the different wares. Its

appearance on Alameda Brown Ware and Coconino Buff Ware jars may not

Page 75: O'Hara MA

Figure 22 - Generalized diagram and profile of a Gila shouldered jar.

65

Page 76: O'Hara MA

66

relate to productive efficiency as it may for Hohokam Buff Ware. Two of the

three reconstructable jars of Coconino Buff Ware recovered in excavations at

Winona Village and Ridge Ruin have Gila shoulders, and numerous other

sherds bear evidence of this vessel form.

Another characteristic Hohokam vessel form that appears in Coconino

Buff Ware is heavy-walled vessels, believed to be some sort of censers

(Figures 11 and 14). These vessels have a solid base with a thick walled (3-5

cm) cup, sometimes with a collar around the rim. Fragments of three of these

vessels were recovered from Winona Village, two from the Hohokam-style pit

house (NA2133A), the other from the trash mound in front of that pit house

(NA2133T). Like censers found at Snaketown (Haury 1976:226-228), the

Coconino Buff Ware censers appear to have been deliberately broken and

have a similar pattern of sooting and oxidation in the cup, indicating that

some substance was burned in the cup of these vessels. I concur with Haury

(1976:226-228; see also McGuire 1992) that these vessels were used in a

mourning ritual that was related to cremation burial. The Hohokam style

pithouse at Winona Village, NA2133A, was burned with a rich floor

assemblage. While this could have been the result of an accidental fire, it

may well have been deliberately burned as part of a mourning ritual.

Fragments of two censers (932/NA2133A.1 and 932/NA2133A.60) were found

inside the doorway, as if they had been cast in as offerings while the

structure was burning.

Page 77: O'Hara MA

67

DATING COCONINO BUFF WARE PRODUCTION

In the northern Southwest, the time period of a pottery type’s

production has been dated by the associations between room floor contexts

and tree-ring dates for the structures (Hargrave 1938; Colton 1953:63-64;

Breternitz 1966; Downum 1988:355-497). This method usually involves

multiple contexts from different sites. However, the only room floor contexts

from structures with tree-ring dates for Coconino Buff Ware are from two

structures at Winona Village, NA2133A and NA2133B (Breternitz 1966:6, 72,

103). Extrapolating from the available dates, Coconino Buff Ware is inferred

to have been produced at NA2133 between 1086 and 1105 (Breternitz

1966:72, 103; Downum 1988:427-429), a brief period of time possibly

representing a single generation of potters. Production dates elsewhere are

not as securely known, but production after about A.D. 1140 seems unlikely.3

HOHOKAM BUFF WARE

Hohokam Buff Ware was found at both NA2098T and NA2133T. The

decorated Hohokam Buff Ware sherds have been identified as Sacaton

Red-on-buff (Gladwin and Gladwin 1933:16-20; Haury 1976:205-209). The

time period during which this type was produced is not well defined, partly

because of regional design variability, but also because of the lack of the

precise dating allowed by dendrochronology.4 The ending dates proposed for

Sacaton Red-on buff production have varied from as early as A.D. 1075

Page 78: O'Hara MA

68

(Wallace 1995:81) to as late as A.D. 1250 (Abbott 1988:184, 192). In general, it

may be said that production of Sacaton Red-on-buff was phased out during

the mid-1100s.

Various tempers were used by Hohokam potters, either sand alone, or

a combination of sand and crushed micaceous or phyllitic schist. All of the

sherds from NA2098T and NA2133T have a distinctive micaceous schist

temper that geologically sources its manufacture to the middle Gila Basin

(Abbott, personal communication, 1998) combined with sand. Current

research on the production and distribution of Hohokam Buff Ware (Abbott

1997) may be able to identify which of these areas was the source of the

micaceous schist temper. Like Coconino Buff Ware, Hohokam Buff Ware

vessels were formed and finished with the paddle-and-anvil technique;

decorated with a mineral paint (iron oxide); often slipped, although usually

poorly; and fired in an oxidizing atmosphere. Its core varies from buff to pink,

with some orange to brown.

Sacaton Red-on-buff designs varied considerably, through both time

and space (Masse 1982; Neitzel 1991). Haury (Gladwin et al. 1938:178; Haury

1976:208-209, 251) describes this change through time as an increasing use

of rectilinear scroll elements and a decreasing use of large solid elements,

leading to a "lightness and laciness of pattern" (Haury 1976:208). Sacaton

Red-on-buff designs are characterized by thin parallel lines, often wavy or

jagged (Figure 23); fringe on lines; tight, fine hatching, sometimes singly

Page 79: O'Hara MA

Figure 23 - Various line forms on Sacaton Red-on-buff sherdsfrom NA2098T and NA2133T — jagged and straight. Note insherd 2098.76.15 how parallel jagged lines are used to form avariant of the opposed serrated barb motif.

capped, and occasionally done in a herring-bone fashion (Figure 24);

curvilinear and rectilinear interlocking and non-interlocking scrolls; and the

opposed serrated barb motif (Figure 25). Jars often have a wavy or scalloped

line framing the design (Figure 26), a trait that may be characteristic of later

Sacaton Red-on-buff (Abbott, personal communication, 1998). A common

layout uses plaited large rectangular motifs interspersed with scrolls.

THE RED-ON-BUFF POTTERY ASSEMBLAGES FROM NA2098T AND NA2133T

The bulk sherd collections from NA2098T and NA2133T at MNA were

carefully sorted with all red-on-buff sherds separated for analysis — 73

Coconino Buff Ware sherds and 24 Sacaton Red-on-buff sherds from

NA2098T, and 119 Coconino Buff Ware sherds and 2 Sacaton Red-on-buff

sherds from NA2133T. Additionally, sherds from these features in the MNA

ceramic type collection were included in the analysis — nine Coconino Buff

Ware sherds and 16 Sacaton Red-on-buff sherds from NA2098T, and 14

Coconino Buff Ware sherds and one Sacaton Red-on-buff sherd from

NA2133T. A total of 258 red-on-buff pottery sherds will be analyzed for this

research — 215 Coconino Buff Ware sherds and 43 Sacaton Red-on-buff

sherds (Table 3).

Some differences in the assemblages from the two sites exist, most

notably the vessel forms present. All 82 Coconino Buff Ware sherds from

NA2098T are from jars, while only 33% of the sherds from NA2133T came

from jars, the other 67% coming from bowls. In addition, three heavy-walled

vessels, or censers, were recovered from the NA2133 cluster, including one

from the trash mound. No censers were found at NA2098, either in the pit

houses or in the trash mound. All of the Sacaton Red-on-buff sherds from

both sites are from jars. Evidence of Gila shoulders was found on Coconino

Buff Ware jar sherds from both sites, 10% of those from NA2098T and 12% of

those from NA2133T.

Another major difference between the assemblages is in the tempering

agents used. All of the Coconino Buff Ware sherds from NA2133T have tuff

temper, which varies in texture from fine to coarse. In contrast, only 55% of

the Coconino Buff Ware sherds from NA2098T have tuff temper, with 43%

with cinder temper, and 2% with sand temper. There is a minor difference in

Page 85: O'Hara MA

75

surface treatment between the two sites: 93% of the Coconino Buff Ware

sherds from NA2098T are slipped, while only 73% of those from NA2133T

are. Colton and Hargrave (1937:178-183) used these criteria, temper and

slipping, to split Coconino Buff Ware into types and varieties. However, the

inconsistent methods used to define types and varieties of the technologically

similar Coconino Buff and Alameda Brown Wares have led me to refer to

Flagstaff area red-on-buff sherds simply as Coconino Buff Ware.

CHAPTER 6

CLASSIFICATION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BLACK-ON-WHITE POTTERY

THE SAMPLE OF BLACK-ON-WHITE POTTERY

The bulk sherd collections from NA2098T and NA2133T were carefully

sorted with all white ware sherds separated out. Samples were then drawn

from these white ware assemblages. Sherds greater than five centimeters

across with two or more decorative elements were selected for analysis.

Sherds that were too burnt to accurately view the designs were eliminated.

These selection criteria eliminated sherds with no decoration, and increased

the likelihood that the sherds could be typed. Of the 837 white ware sherds

from NA2098T, 420 (50.2%) were selected for analysis; and of the 1,842 white

ware sherds from NA2133T, 523 (28.4%) were selected, for a total of 943

white ware sherds used in this analysis.

WHITE WARES PRESENT IN THE SAMPLE

The black-on-white pottery found at Turkey Tanks Pithouses and

Winona Village comes from three different wares — Tusayan White Ware,

Little Colorado White Ware, and Cibola White Ware. The third ware occurs

only in low frequencies at both sites (Table 4). None of these wares were

locally produced.

Tusayan White Ware is the decorated black-on-white pottery of the

Kayenta branch of the Ancestral Pueblos, north of the Flagstaff area. The

vessels of this ware are formed and finished with the coil-and-scrape

technique, and tempered with fine quartz sand. It is decorated with as

organic carbon paint, which is often watery and brownish. The surface is

sometimes thinly slipped. Fired in a reducing atmosphere, the core is light

gray to white with an occasional carbon streak (Colton and Hargrave 1937;

Colton 1955). The sample of white wares from NA2098T has 35% Tusayan

White Ware. In contrast, the sample from NA2133T has 92% Tusayan White

Ware (Colton and Hargrave 1937:203-205; Colton 1955).

Little Colorado White Ware is the decorated black-on-white pottery of

the Winslow branch of the Ancestral Pueblos, east of the Flagstaff area.

Vessels were formed and finished with the coil-and-scrape technique, and

tempered with crushed sherds, although occasionally the temper includes

some coarse quartz sand. The surface has a thick chalky slip, and is

Page 88: O'Hara MA

78

decorated with organic carbon paint, which is often watery and brownish.

Fired in a reducing atmosphere, the core is dark gray due to high iron

content, not carbon (Colton and Hargrave 1937:233-234; Colton 1955). The

sample of white wares from NA2098T has 65% Little Colorado White Ware.

In contrast, the sample from NA2133T has only 7% Little Colorado White

Ware.

Cibola White Ware is the decorated black-on-white pottery of the

Cibola branch of the Ancestral Pueblos, even farther east of the Flagstaff

area. Similar in most ways to the other white wares — coil-and-scrape,

reducing atmosphere, either sherd or sherds and sand temper — the use of a

mineral paint distinguishes Cibola White Ware (Colton 1941:55-56). The

samples from both sites have only low frequencies, less than 1%, of Cibola

White Ware.

Despite the fact that these two sites are only four kilometers apart,

they have significant differences in the wares present. NA2133T has

predominantly (92%) Tusayan White Ware, indicating a strong exchange

relationship with the Kayenta. NA2098T has much less Tusayan White

Ware, only 35% of the assemblage, but much more Little Colorado White

Ware, with 65% rather than the mere 7% present at NA2133T. This indicates

a greater amount of trade with the Winslow area by the inhabitants of

NA2098T (Douglass 1987).

Page 89: O'Hara MA

BLACK-ON-WHITE TYPES AND STYLES

Tusayan White Ware and Little Colorado White Ware share analogous

design styles that correspond to types (Mills et. al 1993:22, 24-25). The

periods of time during which these types were produced and used have been

determined through associations with tree-ring dates (Table 5).

Black Mesa style includes Black Mesa Black-on-white (formerly known

as Deadmans Black-on-white) and Holbrook A Black-on-white (Colton and

Hargrave 1937:207-209; 235-236; Colton 1955; Douglass 1987:428-430). This

style is characterized by large solid elements, especially isosceles and

elongated triangles (Figure 27), but also squares, diamonds, and stepped

frets (Figure 28). Solid elements are often flagged onto the ends of lines

(Figure 29), but also arranged in checkerboard layouts (Figure 30), or

translated and attached in bands (Figure 31) sometimes forming designs with

the intervening negative (Figure 32). The lines are generally wide, but panels

of thin parallel lines are sometimes employed (Figure 33). Scrolls are

curvilinear and interlocking (Figure 34). The hallmark feature of this style is

the use of pendant dots on both solid elements (Figure 35) and lines (Figure

36).

Sosi style includes Sosi Black-on-white and Holbrook B Black-on-white

(Colton and Hargrave 1937:211-213; Beals et al. 1945:103-107; Colton 1955;

Douglass 1987:431-432). Colton (1955) distinguishes styles A and B in Sosi.

Sosi style A is characterized by wide, well spaced lines, solid rectilinear

stepped elements, sometimes triangles, flagged onto the ends of lines (Figure

37). It commonly uses bifold rotational symmetry in whole vessel layouts.

Sosi style B is characterized by use of the opposed serrated barb motif,

combined with rectilinear scrolls, either interlocking or non-interlocking

(Figure 38). Sometimes a variation of the opposed serrated barb motif is

employed in a repetitive, all-over layout (Figure 39).

Depending on how a pot breaks, the resulting sherds may not all have

enough diagnostic elements to allow type classification. Such is the case with

sherds called (following Downum, personal communication, 1996) Broadline

style (Figure 40). They could be either Black Mesa or Sosi style, because they

lack additional design characteristics that would allow differentiation

between the two possibilities.

Flagstaff style includes both Flagstaff and Walnut Black-on-white

(Colton and Hargrave 1937:225-227; Colton 1955; Douglass 1987:433-435).

This style is characterized by thinner, more closely spaced lines, and the use

of the serrated barb motif, often with a series of translated solid diamonds in

between, creating a double row of "lightning bolts" in negative (Figure 41).

Whole vessel layouts commonly uses Y-frame or plaited weave layouts (see

Beals et al. 1945:106, Figure 46). In addition to differences in design

elements and motifs, the size and spacing of these elements is an important

means of distinguishing between styles. For example, Sosi B style and

Flagstaff style bear many similarities. Flagstaff style design elements,

however, are smaller and closer together than those in Sosi B style.

Dogoszhi style includes Dogoszhi, Padre, and Gallup Black-on-whites

(Colton and Hargrave 1937; Colton 1955; Douglass 1987:439-440). The last

type is a Cibola White Ware that occurs in low frequencies at both NA2098T

and NA2133T. This style is characterized by the use of fine hatching within

circumscribed areas, with the hatching lines often at an oblique angle to the

line framing the design field. Occasionally these elements are combined with

wider lines, more frequently in Padre Black-on-white than in Dogoszhi Black-

on-white (Figure 42). The hatched areas are continuous bands, often with

pendants (see Figure 42, sherd 2098.15.5). In addition to having a mineral

paint, Gallup Black-on-white has finer lines and a more precise execution of

design (Figure 43).

STYLISTIC DIFFERENCES IN THE WHITE WARE ASSEMBLAGES

Like the contrast in the frequencies of wares present, NA2098T and

NA2133T show significant differences in the frequencies of styles present

(Table 6). These differences are most likely attributable to different periods of

time over which these trash mounds grew through accumulation of household

refuse. The assemblage at NA2133T is predominantly (70%) Black Mesa,

with only a trace (4%) of Sosi and no Flagstaff. In contrast, NA2098T still has

mostly (48%) Black Mesa, with more Sosi (27%) and a trace (4%) of Flagstaff.

The variability in Sosi style differs at each site as well (Table 7), with

much more Sosi B at NA2098T than at NA2133T. The use of the opposed

serrated barb motif in Sosi B is suggestive of later stylistic developments

characteristic of Flagstaff style, while Sosi A is reminiscent of Black Mesa

style. This stylistic variability may reflect temporal variability. It would

appear that NA2098T was in use later than NA2133T, but the periods of time

these features were constructed probably overlapped. I applied the mean

ceramic dating method developed by Stanley South (1977:201-235) to the

White Ware assemblages from NA2098T and NA2133T. The results yielded

by this method support my contention that NA2133T, with a mean ceramic

date of 1091 ± 43, may be earlier than NA2098T, which has a mean ceramic

date of 1111 ± 36.

CHAPTER 7

COMPARISON AND ANALYSIS OF THE BUFF AND WHITE WARES

To compare these different decorated wares, I measured eight variables —

line width, spacing, and form; solid element size and spacing; and the presence or

absence of the opposed serrated barb motif, dots, and hatching (Table 8). The

intervals used to measure line width (V1) are the same used by Hegmon (1995) in

Table 8 - Coding Key for Stylistic Variables

her study of Black Mesa and Mesa Verde White Wares. Exploratory analysis of the

variability in element size and space led the adoption of the intervals used to

measure V2, V5, and V6. I chose the specific motifs and elements for

presence/absence analysis because, when initially sorting the sherds, they appeared

to be diagnostic and distinguishing decorative characteristics.

Because, as argued in Chapter Four, I believe that line and element size and

spacing reflect unconscious levels of design construction and execution relating to

learned motor habits, I will first compare and contrast the measurements of these

variables. The lines and solid elements on Coconino Buff Ware sherds are narrower

than those on White Ware sherds from the same depositional contexts (Figures 44

and 45), and this trend persists when the assemblages from both sites are combined

(Figure 46). The Coconino Buff Ware and the White Ware assemblages from the two

sites have differences: sherds from NA2133T have larger lines and elements than

those from NA2098T. These differences between the sites may be the result of their

different temporal affiliations. The line and solid element widths of Coconino and

Hohokam Buff Wares appear to be more similar (Figures 47 and 48).

Similarly, the lines and solid elements on Coconino Buff Ware sherds are

closer together than those on White Ware sherds from the same depositional

contexts (Figures 49 and 50), and when the assemblages are combined (Figure 51).

Once again, the Coconino Buff Ware and the White Ware assemblages from the two

sites have differences, sherds from NA2133T have lines and elements farther apart

than those from NA2098T. As with the differences in element size, the inter-site

differences in element spacing may also be the result of temporal differences. The

line and solid element spacing of Coconino and Hohokam Buff Wares appear to be

more similar (Figures 52 and 53).

These differences between both wares and sites in the size and spacing of

lines are visibly notable (Figures 54 and 55). Lines on red-on-buff sherds are

thinner and closer together than those on black-on-white, and lines on sherds from

NA2133T are thicker and farther apart than those from NA2098T. Coconino Buff

Ware and the White Wares use line forms differently. White Ware sherds

predominantly use straight lines, without much difference between the two sites.

On White Ware sherds from NA2098T, 90% of the lines are straight; and on those

from NA2133T, 88% are straight. Those lines that are not straight are simply

curved, only three sherds (all from the same vessel) from NA2133T have wavy lines.

Coconino Buff Wares use a greater variety of line forms, including straight, curved,

jagged, wavy, and fringed. Differences exist between the use of line forms at the two

sites. On Coconino Buff Ware sherds from NA2098T, 51% of the lines are straight;

and on those from NA2133T, 77% are straight.

The size and spacing of lines and solid elements used in the opposed serrated

motif varies by ware and type (Figures 56, 57, and 58). The elements in Sosi B

opposed serrated barbs are larger and further apart than those in Flagstaff and red-

on-buff, which are very similar in size and spacing. However, Flagstaff style sherds

were not found at NA2133T and acheive only a very low frequency (4%) at

NA2098T. Frequency of use of the opposed serrated barb motif is much lower in the

White Wares than in the Buff Wares (Figure 59). The opposed serrated barb motif is

very infrequent (1%) on White Ware sherds from NA2133T, but is more common

(10%) on sherds from NA2098T.

Pendant dots are a hallmark design element of Black Mesa style (see Figures

35 and 36), the predominant White Ware style at both sites. Pendant dots exist on

26% of the White Ware sherds from NA2098T and on 24% of those from NA2098T.

However, pendant dots are absent on Buff Ware sherds. Independent dots inside of

grids (Figure 60) are present on 3% of the Coconino Buff Ware sherds from

NA2133T, and on the Coconino Red-on-buff jar from NA2133A (Figure 61).

Independent dots are lacking on all White Ware sherds from NA2133T, do not

appear on any Buff Ware sherds from NA2098T. However, 1% of the White ware

sherds from NA2098T have independent dots, but they are used differently, inside

the negative diamonds of checkerboard or band layouts (see sherd 2098.45.270,

Figure 30).

In the White Wares, hatching is not usually combined with solid elements,

and when present it is expressed in a different style. But in the Buff Wares,

hatching is used integrally within the designs. Whereas hatched areas on White

Wares are expressed as continuous bands, on Buff Wares isolated panels are

hatched. However, hatching is much more frequent on the Hohokam Buff Ware

sherds (35%) than it is on the Coconino Buff Ware sherds (8%), and Coconino Buff

Ware sherds never have the herringbone hatching that is found on 33% of the

Hohokam sherds with hatching. Almost identical uses of hatching in variations on

the opposed serrated barb motif appear on both Coconino and Hohokam Buff Ware

sherds (Figures 62 and 63). The singly capped hatching on both Coconino and

Hohokam Buff Ware sherds in Figure 64 was not found on any White Ware sherds.

While only seven whole or partial Coconino Buff Ware vessels have been

found (NA2133A.1, NA2133A.51, NA2133A.60, NA2133T.104, NA2134.C25.3,

NA3979.1, and NA10803.B25.???), some statements about the layouts used can be

made. As noted by McGregor (1941:45-46), blocks of elements are often paneled

together in alternating plaited layouts (Figure 64) as on NA2133A.51 (Figures 10

and 63). Y-frame layouts (Figure 64) appear on NA2133A.60 (Figure 10) and

NA2133T.104 (Figure 13). Both of these layouts often alternate opposed serrated

barb panels with rectilinear interlocking scrolls. These layouts are identical to those

employed on Hohokam Buff Ware vessels. In contrast, the White Wares use

predominantly different layouts — bifold rotation, quartered panels, and repeated

bands (Figure 64). However, Y-frame and plaited layouts similar to those used on

the Buff Wares begin appear in the later White Ware styles Sosi B and Flagstaff.

The decorative treatment of Coconino Buff Ware sherds and White Ware

sherds from the same contexts is quite different both at an unconscious level of

design construction, with the size and spacing of elements, and at a conscious level,

with the use of specific elements, motifs, and layouts in the designs. This evidence

would seem to indicate different cultural origins for these decorative traditions. The

contention that Coconino Buff Ware designs are “identical” (Pilles 1979:472) to

White Ware designs cannot be supported when comparing assemblages from the

same depositional contexts. The designs on the Coconino Buff Ware sherds appear

to be more similar to those on the small sample of Hohokam Buff Ware sherds than

to the White Ware sherds. Also, the evidence is contrary to Pilles’ (1979:472)

assertion that the Coconino Buff Ware decorations are similar to crudely decorated

Alameda Brown Ware types Sunset and Turkey Hill White-on-red, which use

repeated isolated white dots or crosses with wide lines and “heavy” triangles (Colton

1941:39-41; Colton 1958).

CHAPTER 8

INTERPRETATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS

Clearly the designs of Coconino Buff Ware have a separate origin than

those on the White Wares with which they co-occur. They appear to be

similar to the Hohokam Buff Ware. However, the small number of Hohokam

Buff Ware sherds from a limited number vessels do not adequately represent

the design variability of Hohokam Buff Ware. Pilles is correct when he

asserts that many decorative elements found on Hohokam Buff Ware are not

present on Coconino Buff Ware (Pilles 1979:427; Fish et al. 1980:164).

However, some of the elements that he lists — especially repeated small

elements and life forms — are not necessarily characteristic of Sacaton Red-

on-buff, the Hohokam Buff Ware type from the time period in question.

Instead, they are typical of earlier Hohokam types like Santa Cruz Red-on-

buff. So comparison in these terms is not fair.

Nonetheless, Coconino Buff Wares are more similar to Hohokam Buff

Wares in element size and spacing; the elements, motifs, and layouts used;

vessel forms present; and even basic technology. This would appear to

indicate that the Coconino Buff Ware tradition derived somehow from the

Hohokam Buff Ware tradition. The mechanism by which this tradition was

Page 139: O'Hara MA

129

transmitted from the Hohokam to the Flagstaff area has profound

implications for interpretations of regional prehistory. Initially, MNA

researchers believed this pottery was the product of Hohokam migrants

(Colton 1938, 1946, 1960; Hargrave 1932; McGregor 1937a, 1937b, 1937c,

1941).

MIGRATION, ETHNICITY, RITUAL, AND EXCHANGE

McGregor carefully hedged this assertion, wondering whether these

migrants represented “a group of Hohokam, or people closely related to the

Hohokam people” (McGregor 1937a:31). He asked, “Were the people of

Hohokam characteristics who arrived at Winona Village actually from the

Gila area or were they from an intermediate stopping place?” (McGregor

1937a:31). McGregor proposed in fact that the migrants may have been from

the Verde Valley, not the Salt-Gila Basin (McGregor 1937b:50), and only

envisioned that a few families may have migrated to the Flagstaff area

(McGregor 1987; n.d.). Colton (1946:270) states that the Hohokam migrants

consisted of “a number of families from central Arizona.” Given these

carefully qualified statements, MNA researchers apparently never imagined

a large-scale, long-distance migration.

Pilles explains the supposed Hohokam influence at Sinagua sites in

terms of a systemic model, in contrast with the model of ethnicity and

migration proposed by MNA researchers. In his view, Hohokam presence at

Page 140: O'Hara MA

130

Winona Village might have been part of an expansion of Hohokam exchange

networks with the Hohokam population limited to a trader in residence at

NA2133A, the Hohokam pithouse (Pilles 1979:472; Fish et al. 1980:169-170).

Paul Fish, one of Pilles’ collaborators, excavated what appeared to be a

Hohokam trading outpost in the upper Verde Valley at Perkinsville (Figure

65). This site, dating to the early A.D. 1000s, has a ballcourt and a mixture of

Hohokam and Sinagua house types (Fish 1974:17; Fish and Fish 1977:41-42).

A large quantity of argillite was found, both as finished ornaments and

production debitage. The site is located near an argillite mine (Bartlett 1939)

and may have been established to gain access to that resource for the

Hohokam. Based on the pottery found, this site was occupied earlier than

Winona Village. From roughly the same time period, but in east central

Arizona, Stove Canyon Village (Figure 65) is a Mogollon pithouse village with

a Hohokam-style pit house containing Hohokam artifacts, a Hohokam-style

ballcourt, and a Mogollon great kiva (Neely 1974). The ballcourt and great

kiva indicate that Stove Canyon Village was an important ceremonial center

for local populations.

Ballcourts are a form of communal ceremonial architecture

characteristic of the Preclassic Hohokam. Wilcox has developed a model of a

ballcourt system proposing that the ballcourts were part of calendrically-

scheduled ceremonies, and that they also served as nodes for redistributive

exchange between groups (Wilcox and Sternberg 1983:212-214). Twelve

ballcourts have been found in the Flagstaff area, including the one at Winona

Village (Figure 66), and most appear to have been built after the eruption of

Sunset Crater (Morales 1994). The presence of Hohokam-style pit houses

(Figure 67) at two other ballcourt communities, Juniper Terrace (NA1814)

and Three Courts Pueblo (NA618), enhances the idea of resident Hohokam

traders at these ballcourt communities. However, Wilcox proposes that these

ballcourts may have facilitated exchange between the Verde Valley and the

Flagstaff area, and he raises the possibility that there were no direct ties

between the Flagstaff area and the Hohokam heartland of the Salt-Gila

Basin (Wilcox and Sternberg 1983:214).

Doyel (1992) has proposed the existence of a Preclassic Hohokam

religious cult that included the use of ballcourts and a cremation death ritual,

as well as water symbolism. At Winona Village, in addition to a ballcourt, 45

cremation burials were found. This form of mortuary treatment differs

considerably from the standard Sinagua practice of inhumation burial.

Cremation burial appears to have been practiced for a limited period of time

in the Flagstaff area, a period of time coincident with the Winona focus

(Colton 1946:295). The cremation burials at Winona Village are not

restricted to the NA2133 house cluster with the Hohokam-style pit house,

which only had one cremation recovered. Rather, cremations were found at

three of the five house clusters, with the largest numbers of cremations

actually coming from the NA2134 (n=28) and NA3644 (n=16) house clusters

(McGregor 1941:262-270).

This large number of cremations at Winona Village would seem odd if

only a Hohokam resident trader were present, just as the presence of only

one Hohokam-style pit house seems odd if a number of Hohokam families

migrated into the area. Combining ideas of systemic relations between

regional populations with those of ethnic identity leads to a consideration

that the cremated individuals who used the ballcourt at Winona were

Sinagua. Local Sinagua people may have emulated their Hohokam exchange

partners, they may have accepted the cremation death ritual along with

ballcourt use as part of an integrated system of ritual and belief.

A variety of methods of cremation burial were practiced at Winona

Village, ranging from leaving the remains scattered where they were burned

(primary cremations) to collecting the remains in a vessel (secondary

cremations). The offerings that accompanied cremated individuals also varied

from people with no offerings to those with numerous vessels, projectile

points, and shell jewelry. The differential treatment of those cremated at

Winona Village, both in terms of the offerings present and method of

interring the cremated remains, may reflect differences in social status,

demonstrating that cremation was not a practice restricted to an exclusive

group. Also, cremation burials were found at three of the five house clusters

at Winona Village.

Page 146: O'Hara MA

136

In contrast, at the Piper Site (Figure 68), there exist two distinct

cemeteries — one with exclusively inhumation burials, the other with almost

exclusively cremations. All but one of the cremations were secondary

interments. Offerings included pottery, shell and stone jewelry, and projectile

points (Wendorf et al. 1956:134-135). The pottery found in the two features

and with the burials indicates that they were roughly contemporaneous with

one another and with Winona Village (Wendorf et al. 1956:115-116). The

burial pattern at the Piper Site seems to indicate the co-residence of two

social groups with distinct differences in mortuary practices that may reflect

differences in religious practice and ethnic identity. The distribution of

Coconino Buff Ware at Piper Site appears to be correlated with the presence

of cremation burials. Structure 10, the house most closely associated with the

trash mound containing the cremation cemetery, and containing an intrusive

secondary cremation, contained 79% (n=19) of the Coconino Buff Ware sherds

from the site (Wendorf et al. 1956:114).

Changing from inhumation to cremation burial is a drastic change that

must reflect a change in religious beliefs concerning the afterlife. Such a

change in religious belief and practice would have to be motivated by some

sense of gaining advantages, either religious, social, or even economic.

Combining Wilcox’s model of the ballcourt network (Wilcox and Sternberg

1983) and Doyel’s (1992) idea of a Hohokam religious cult, the co-occurrence

of ballcourts and cremations at Winona Village could be explained by the

integration of local populations into an economic exchange network

organized and facilitated by ritual practices involving calendrical ballcourt

rites and a shared group identity underscored by a cremation death ritual. A

resident Hohokam trader, whose cultural practices were emulated by local

peoples, may very well have been present at Winona Village, living in

NA2133A. There exists historical and ethnographic evidence of Akimel and

Tohono O’odham traders who seasonally traveled from their homes in the

Sonoran Desert to marine shell sources on the Gulf of California in the

winter and to pueblo villages on the Colorado Plateau in the summer (Wyllys

1931:139; Underhill 1939:21, 103-104). As proposed by MNA researchers, a

few Sinagua families from the Verde Valley who already had established

exchange relations with the Hohokam may also be present at Winona Village.

But what items were exchanged? Marine shell, much of it from the Gulf of

California, was one item that was brought to Winona Village.

McGregor (1941:214) states that bracelets and pendants made from

Glycymeris sp. are the most abundant form of shell jewelry found at Winona

Village. Research on Hohokam shell exchange (McGuire 1985, 1992b;

McGuire and Howard 1987) has postulated that shell circulated within a

prestige goods economy. Certain classes of shell jewelry, like Pecten sp. and

Turritella sp. pendants, are interpreted as high value goods, the exchange of

which served to establish relations between elites in different settlements or

regions. Others, like the Glycymeris sp. bracelets, are interpreted as low

Page 149: O'Hara MA

139

value goods that were distributed through exchange relations that linked

elites and dependents. Only one pendant each of Pecten sp. and Turritella sp.

were found at Winona Village, while 92 whole Glycymeris sp. bracelets and

281 fragments were found. This quantification matches the expectations of

high and low value goods circulating in a prestige goods network.

While localized specialist production of shell jewelry in the Papagueria

has been proposed (McGuire 1985, 1992b; McGuire and Howard 1987),

evidence of the production of shell jewelry at Winona Village exists in the

form of both manufacturing debitage and unworked raw materials (McGregor

1941:214-215). As an aspect of the model of a Hohokam migration, McGregor

(1941:226) identifies the craft tradition of shell working at Winona Village as

derivative of the Hohokam tradition. Similar evidence of the craft production

of jewelry from argillite, turquoise, and other stone was also found, including

argillite copies of Glycymeris sp. shell jewelry (McGregor 1941:204-205). It

has been proposed (Fish et al. 1979:171; Pilles 1979:472) that Winona Village

was a regional exchange center that may have been the residence of a

Hohokam trader. In this context of a regional center, Winona Village also

appears to have been a center of production as well as distribution of prestige

goods like shell and stone jewelry.

Cotton textiles, raw cotton, and cotton seed may have been other items

offered by Hohokam traders. Sinagua textiles are similar in design, especially

the use of the opposed serrated barb motif, and twill structure to Hohokam

Page 150: O'Hara MA

140

textiles (Kent 1957; Folb 1996). The plaited layout (Figure 64), which is also

found on pottery, is characteristic of textile designs. Haury noted the

similarities in plaited layouts used on Hohokam pottery found at Snaketown

and on pottery with Flagstaff style designs. However, he noted that Hohokam

sherds with this layout were found with Black Mesa style and infers that the

use of the plaited layout in Flagstaff style was derivative of Hohokam

decorative traditions (Gladwin et al. 1938:178). But the transmission of this

decorative style may not have been through the exchange of vessels. Rather,

it may have been through the exchange of cotton textiles bearing the same

layout and motifs.

AGENCY AND STRUCTURE IN SINAGUA PREHISTORY

Within this model of Winona Village as a center of production and

exchange, I interpret Coconino Buff Ware as pottery produced by local

Sinagua or Sinagua immigrants from the Verde Valley who strategically used

this decorated pottery, with its distinct color combinations and vessel forms,

to materially signify, represent, and demonstrate their newly emerging

social, economic, and cultural ties with the Hohokam. Bourdieu (1977a)

suggests that language can serve as social capital. Knowing how to

appropriately use language, and having a sufficient command of linguistic

resources, allows individuals to establish identity and authority. If decorated

pottery is considered to encode information and communicate messages, it

Page 151: O'Hara MA

141

could be considered the same way as language. If so, Sinagua potters may

have adopted Hohokam Buff Ware stylistic traditions and employed them as

visible signs to communicate their social and cultural relationship with the

Hohokam.

Of the seven vessels of Coconino Buff Ware that are known, three are

censers, which were believed to have been used in cremation or mourning

rituals (Haury:1976:226-228). Two others contained cremated remains as

secondary interments. The use of these vessels in cremation death rituals,

which may have been performed on top of the trash mounds, would have been

highly visible. Those Sinagua who emulated the Hohokam would want to

broadcast that message of shared group identity to their Hohokam trading

partners, to their fellow Sinagua who also adopted these practices, and to

their neighbors who had not changed.

Potter (1997) has recently applied Giddens’ (1979) concepts of agency

and structure to an archaeological case in the Zuni area of New Mexico.

Giddens (1977) defines structures as rules and resources that define and

constrain society, and agency as the ability of individuals and groups to

intervene and manipulate these structures. Potter suggests that individual

agents in Zuni prehistory manipulated structures of communal ritual

feasting in order to secure social and economic benefits. Following these

interpretations, I propose that individual agents in Sinagua society, perhaps

nascent elites, sought to manipulate various social structures — including

Page 152: O'Hara MA

142

distinctly decorated pottery of unusual vessel forms, cremation death rituals

(which utilized Red-on-Buff vessels) performed in public on top of trash

mounds, and the ritual games played in ballcourts — to establish an identity

(both within the local Sinagua community and with the neighboring

Hohokam community) associating them with their Hohokam exchange

partners in order to maximize the social benefits obtainable from exercising

some control over inter-regional exchange.

FUTURE RESEARCH DIRECTIONS

These ideas are speculative and more research needs to be done to test

them. The first step should be performing stylistic analyses and comparisons

of the red-on-buff and black-on-white assemblages at the other 20 sites with

Coconino Buff Ware (Figure 5). This analysis and comparison should focus on

inter-site differences between wares and intra-site differences within wares.

What stylistic variability exists in Coconino Buff Ware? I noted slight

differences in line width and spacing on the Coconino Buff Ware sherds from

NA2098T and NA2133T. Does this variability exist at other sites, and what is

its importance?

The comparative sample of Hohokam Buff Ware needs to be expanded

to include samples from the Salt-Gila Basin and intermediate areas like the

lower Verde Valley and the Agua Fria River. With an expanded sample of

Hohokam Buff Ware, more conclusive statements about the stylistic

Page 153: O'Hara MA

143

relationship between Coconino Buff Ware and Hohokam Buff Ware could be

made. Based upon my initial observations of Hohokam Buff Ware from

Snaketown (Figure 65) in the MNA Ceramic Type Collection, I expect that

the design variability present in Hohokam Buff Ware is not fully expressed in

Coconino Buff Ware.

Locally-produced red-on-buff pottery has also been found in the middle

and upper Verde Valley and in the Prescott area, and may represent local

emulation of the Hohokam. Understanding the stylistic relationships

between these types, Hohokam Buff Ware, and Coconino Buff Ware, will

illuminate how red-on-buff designs were used in different regions. These

different local expressions of red-on-buff may not be contemporaneous.

Prescott Red-on-buff from the Neural Site appears to be later than Coconino

Buff based on co-occurring black-on-white types (Grossman 1997:20-22, 47),

and also appears to be stylistically different from both Hohokam and

Coconino Buff Wares (Grossman 1997:36-38, 45).

The dates of Coconino Buff Ware production need to be better assessed.

Four Coconino Buff Ware sherds were found in surface contexts at AZ I:11:6,

a site that, when excavated, revealed pre-eruptive occupation from the

Archaic through the Sunset phase (Bradley et al. 1993:97-145). At Lizard

Man Village, a post-eruptive site occupied into the 1200's (Kamp and

Whittaker 1990, 1998), 50 Coconino Buff Ware sherds were recovered (Kamp

and Whittaker 1998:Table 3.3), and the illustrated examples (Kamp and

Page 154: O'Hara MA

144

Whittaker 1998:Figure 3.5) appear to differ slightly from those seen at

NA2098T and NA2133T. The co-occurrence of Coconino Buff Ware sherds

with well dated black-on-white types in secure contexts at different sites

needs to be examined to better understand when Coconino Buff Ware was

produced and used.

The relationship between Coconino Buff Ware and Alameda Brown

Ware needs to be clarified. Both wares use the same volcanic ash and tuff

tempers, are formed and finished using the same paddle-and-anvil method,

and are fired in an oxidizing atmosphere. Colton (1941:20) asserts that the

two wares were made from different sources clays containing different

amounts of iron. Refiring Coconino Buff Ware and Alameda Brown Ware

sherds found in the same depositional contexts and comparing the resulting

Munsell colors would be an easy method of compositional analysis that could

held address this problem. Depending on the results of this testing, more

sophisticated methods of chemical sourcing could be pursued.

Three sherds from NA2098T and NA2133T with sand-temper were

classified as Coconino Buff Ware. However, these sherds not only had

different tempers, but also appeared to be made from a different paste and

decorated with a different paint. These unslipped sand tempered sherds were

more yellow than the ash- and tuff-tempered sherds, which were brown to

orange when unslipped. In the MNA Ceramic Type collection, another sand-

tempered sherd exists. This sherd was found at Three Courts Pueblo

Page 155: O'Hara MA

145

(NA618), a Cohonina site with a Hohokam-style pithouse that is located near

the Second Sink Ballcourt. Recent excavations along U.S. Highway 89 have

recovered sand-tempered red-on-buff pottery at AZ I:10:120 (Mark Elson,

personal communication 1997). It may be that these sand-tempered red-on-

buff sherds are a Cohonina expression of Hohokam emulation. Cohonina

pottery, San Francisco Mountain Gray Ware, was fired in a reducing

atmosphere. Refiring sand-tempered red-on-buff and San Francisco

Mountain Gray Ware sherds from the same depositional contexts in an

oxidizing atmosphere could establish whether the same clays were used.

While it is certain that marine shell from the Gulf of California was

traded into Winona Village via the Hohokam, what the inhabitants of

Winona Village provided in exchange is not known. Pottery from their

Kayenta neighbors is a possibility, such pottery is found at Hohokam sites in

the Salt-Gila Basin (Crown 1985), but in small quantities. McGregor

proposed that the inhabitants of Winona Village may have specialized in the

craft production of leather goods (McGregor 1937:39; McGregor and Wetherill

1939:53). The relative frequency of certain artifacts used for hide processing,

like chipped stone and bone scrapers and bone awls, to other artifacts not

used for hide processing could be used to assess the importance of hide-

processing as an activity. Certain types of ground stone were used for hide-

processing and use-wear analysis can distinguish between ground stone

artifacts used for hide-processing and those used to process foods like corn

Page 156: O'Hara MA

146

(Adams 1988).

Raw materials for and debitage from the manufacture of shell and

stone jewelry indicate the craft production of prestige goods at Winona, but

how this production was organized is not understood. Published reports

discuss the importance of these activities (McGregor 1937:37; McGregor and

Wetherill 1939:53-54), but no analysis of the inter-site distribution of these

materials is presented. Wigglesworth (1986) provides information on the

inter-site distribution of finished shell jewelry, but to understand how the

production of these goods was organized, the distribution of raw materials

and debitage needs to be examined.

McGregor (1941) presented no detailed analysis of the stratigraphy of

the trash mounds at either Turkey Tanks Pithouses or Winona Village, and

no such information was located by the author in the MNA site files. Without

such information, the formation processes that created these features cannot

be understood and the hypothesis that they may have functioned in

cremation death rituals cannot be tested. Fortunately, the trash mounds at

Winona Village were only tested, and significant portions of the resources

remain for future investigation. At Turkey Tanks, NA2098T was completely

excavated, but another trash mound remains untouched. Additional testing

and trenching of these trash mounds could provide valuable information on

how these mounds were constructed and used.

While this thesis provides an initial exploration of Coconino Buff Ware,

Page 157: O'Hara MA

147

it provides the groundwork for a great deal of future research. The paradigm

shift from culture-history to processualism in Southwestern archaeology

during the 1960s dismissed ideas of culture, ethnicity, and migration in favor

of systems, adaptation, and exchange. These ideas may have been discarded

to hastily (Anthony 1990), and now Southwestern archaeologists are

rediscovering these notions and incorporating them into processual models of

prehistoric change (Cameron 1995; Reid 1998). Coconino Buff Ware provides

an excellent opportunity to explore ideas of culture, ethnicity, migration, and

exchange in the archaeological record.

NOTES

1. The term Anasazi has traditionally been used in Southwestern archaeologyas a cultural label for the Basketmaker-Pueblo people. However, it is aNavajo word meaning “ancient enemies,” and is considered offensive to manycontemporary Pueblo people. I prefer to use the term Ancestral Pueblo ratherthan Anasazi.

2. Colton (1946:180) only presents sherd counts for trench 3, trench 5, andthe remainder of the mound excavated after trenching.

3. Turkey Tanks Pithouses and other undated sites with Coconino Buff Wareare mostly Angell-Winona focus (A.D. 1070-1130). Critical evidence is thatCoconino Buff Ware was not found at Wupatki Pueblo (NA405), JuniperTerrace (NA1814), or the fill of pueblo rooms at Ridge Ruin (NA1785).Wupatki Pueblo has a ballcourt and abundant Alameda Brown Ware (Colton1946:55-63), and tree-rings for major construction after A.D. 1137 (Robinsonet al. 1975:92-96). Juniper Terrace is near a ballcourt (NA804), has aHohokam-style pit house (NA1814C), and has tree-ring dates after A.D. 1129(Colton 1946:76-77, 145-155; Robinson et al. 1975:52-53; Downum 1988:342-345). While Coconino Buff Ware was found in some contexts at Ridge Ruin,none was found in the fill of pueblo rooms with construction dates after A.D.1118 (Colton 1946:138-145; Robinson et al. 1975:78-79). However, thepresence of Coconino Buff Ware at Lizard Man Village (Kamp and Whittaker1998:Table 3.3), which was occupied from approximately 1070 to 1250 (Kampand Whittaker 1998:8-12), may indicate possible later production.Unfortunately, the contexts from which Coconino Buff sherds were recoveredat Lizard Man Village are not published, so the dates of use cannot bedetermined.

4. Dendrochronology has seen limited application in Hohokam archaeologybecause Hohokam house construction generally used wood from mesquite,cottonwood, and other trees which are not amenable to dendrochronologicalanalysis. Hohokam ceramic chronology is based on less precise radiocarbonand archaeomagnetic dating methods, and cross-dating with tree-ring datedpottery found in co-occurrence.
