Codding, assistant professor of anthropology, University of Utah "An impressive and needed review of the pre-ceramic period in the Greater Southwest. This volume will provide the first comprehensive, integrated review of the southwestern Archaic as well as a foundation for future understandings of the most important event in this area, the coming of maize agriculture." - R. G. Matson, professor of archaeology emeritus, University of British Columbia
