Notes: Occasional Paper No. 4.  “The Duckfoot site…is a late Pueblo I Anasazi habitation site consisting of 19 contiguous surface rooms, 4 pit structures, and an extensive midden.” (from the Introduction to Volume 1)  The site gets its name from a pottery “object” found on the first day of excavation.  Its mate was found four years later, and together they are believed to have supported a pottery vessel of some sort, though the vessel has never been found.  This volume looks at the household organization of this late ninth century Puebloan site.
