A Preliminary Overview of Cultural History in the Lower Rio Chama, New Mexico.

Abstract

In order to provide base line data for future Corps of Engineers' work in the lower Rio Chama, this project aims to: (1) Identify and evaluate published and unpublished sources documenting the history and prehistory of the study area; (2) Summarize briefly the history and prehistory of the lower Chama; (3) Document previously recorded sites; (4) Provide recommendations for future work including assessment of potential for locating additional cultural resources in the study area. These objectives were met through limited library and archival research at the Laboratory of Anthropology (LA) of the Museum of New Mexico and the Museum of New Mexico Historical Library in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
