The San Pedro Valley is a verdant ribbon of life within the arid environment of southeastern Arizona. Its present tranquility belies the fact that it has been the setting for over 11,000 years of human existence. The alley forms a natural corridor between the Sonoran Desert of northern Mexico and the Gila River of central Arizona. Water is the key to life in the Southwest and the perennial flow of the San Pedro River has insured the almost constant use of the valley by Native American peoples and European immigrants. Together these scholars cogently lay out a coherent theory, method, and model for conducting collaborative archaeological ethnohistory in Native American communities, which will stand for many years to come as the archetype of interdisciplinary and politically conscious work. --Journal of Anthropological Research Together these scholars cogently lay out a coherent theory, method, and model for conducting collaborative archaeological ethnohistory in Native American communities, which will stand for many years to come as the archetype of interdisciplinary and politically conscious work.
