Instead, he advocates an entirely new approach, one that separates archaeological thought in the Southwest from its anthropological home and moves to more historical ways of thinking. Focusing on the enigmatic monumental center at Chaco Canyon, the book provides a historical analysis of how Southwest archaeology confined itself, how it can break out of those confines, and how it can proceed into the future. Lekson suggests that much of what we believe about the ancient Southwest should be radically revised. Looking past old preconceptions brings a different Chaco Canyon into view. More than an eleventh-century Pueblo ritual center, Chaco was a political capital with nobles and commoners, a regional economy, and deep connections to Mesoamerica. By getting the history right, a very different science of the ancient Southwest becomes possible and archaeology can be reinvented as a very different discipline."--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Chaco culture $x History. $x History. 651 0 $a Southwest, New $x History. $x Research $x History. 651 0 $a Chaco Canyon (N.M.) $x Antiquities. 650 0 $a Hopi Indians $x Antiquities. 650 0 $a Pueblo Indians $x Antiquities. 650 0 $a Archaeology $x History. $x History. 650 7 $a Antiquities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00810745 650 7 $a Antiquities $x Research. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01351701 650 7 $a Archaeology $x Methodology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00812969 650 7 $a Hopi Indians $x Antiquities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00960101 650 7 $a Pueblo Indians $x Antiquities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01083570 651 7 $a New Mexico $z Chaco Canyon. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244628 651 7 $a Southwest, New. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244556 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Lekson, Stephen H. $t Study of Southwestern archaeology. $d Salt Lake City : The University of Utah Press, [2018] $z 9781607816423 $w (DLC) 2018029400 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200402014728.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=04DDCFDE3F1811E98434DF6697128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
