Notes:  Fieldiana Anthropology Volume 63, No. 1.  The Hay Hollow site is about 10 miles east of Snowflake, Arizona.  “The site was chosen for investigation because (1) it appeared to have been occupied before or near the beginning of the introduction of pottery-making and agriculture in the area; (2) it was unlike any other excavated site in the area except the County Road Site (about 1000 B.C.-350 B.C., GX-0274 and GX-0272, Geochron Laboratories)….and (3) it provided an opportunity to measure and analyze prehistoric subsistence systems at a time during which crucial changes were taking place–that is, at a time when the people of the area were responding to pressures that caused them to shift from their hunting-gathering subsistence adaptation to one of farming.”  (From the Introduction).  An “early Mogollon culture”.
