Notes: Volume 5 of a 6 volume set. Museum of Northern Arizona Research Paper 35.  “The volume focuses on pollen, flotation and faunal studies in an effort to understand the paleoenvironment of the study area during the periods the sites were occupied and the subsistence strategies of the sites’ occupants…While the occupants of the Brady Wash area sites relied on corn and agave, the Hohokam in the Picacho area sites relied primarily on Cheno-ams (n.b. amaranth, pigweed), mesquite, agave and hunted wild animals. ” (From the Abstract)
