Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a unique look at the Hohokam civilization, a group of ancient agriculturalists who once thrived in the Arizona desert. It explores their fascinating history, focusing on their settlement and subsistence practices in the Papagueria, a region known for its harsh desert landscape. The author delves into the cultural and physical environment of this region, uncovering the challenges and opportunities faced by the Hohokam as they adapted to a water-scarce landscape. The book examines the Hohokam's use of irrigation, floodwater farming, and their dependence on a rich array of natural resources. It also explores their trading relationships with other cultures and the impact of environmental factors like drought on their society. This book challenges the traditional view of the Hohokam, showing how they were more integrated and complex than previously believed. By examining the archaeological record, the author offers a fresh perspective on their culture, illuminating their resilience and adaptability in a harsh and unforgiving environment.
