Notes:  “Archaeological remains from AR-4, when compared with historically derived profiles of known culture groups, indicate Navajo authorship of the Piedra Lumbre Phase.  Navajo occupation at AR-4 has been dated between A.D. 1640 and 1710.  The Piedra Lumbre Phase may mark a time when Navajos first differentiated from other Apachean peoples, adopted animal husbandry, and experienced substantial changes in social organization.”  (From the Abstract).  RARE.  Only one other copy available for sale, and held in only 7 libraries.
