Notes: “The Jornada branch of the Mogollon culture and its inhabitants played a significant economic, political, and social role at multiple scales. This volume draws together results from recent large-scale CRM work that has amassed among the largest data sets in the Southwest with up-to-date chronological, architectural, faunal, ceramic, obsidian sourcing, and other specialized studies. Chapters by some of the most active researchers in the area address topics that reach beyond the American Southwest, such as mobility, forager adaptations, the transition to farming, responses to environmental challenges, and patterns of social interaction.”  ( https://upcolorado.com/university-press-of-colorado/item/3513-late-prehistoric-hunter-gatherers-and-farmers-of-the-jornada-mogollon )  In print at $79.  I’d give this volume an A but for the lack of any mention of Pat Beckett, the first archaeologist to push for recognition of the Jornada Mogollon, and organizer of the Jornada Mogollon Conference.
