Notes: Archaeology Notes 232.    Fifth volume of a six volume set.  All volumes sold separately.  Excavation of 25 sites–6 Archaic, 4 early pithouse, 6 late pithouse, 11 early and late Pueblo, some probably Athabascan (Apache) intrusions, and 3 from God-knows-where.   Phytolyths are microscopic structures produced by plants, virtually indestructible,  and used for determining past environments. Geomorphology, a branch of geology, is the study of the origin and evolution of landforms, and the processes that shape them over time.  Mogollon Highlands–think Catron County, NM.  VERY RARE.  No other copies available for sale.
