Archaeology of the Grand Canyon: The Walhalla Plateau (Grand Canyon Archaeological Series)
(The Walhalla Plateau, part of the Grand Canyon's North Ri...)
The Walhalla Plateau, part of the Grand Canyon's North Rim, was the site of seasonal farming by prehistoric Pueblo Indians who later left behind their agricultural terraces and small stone farmhouses. During the winters, these farmers probably retreated to the warmer canyon below. This book presents data from the School of American Research's survey and excavation on the Walhalla Plateau, discussing the dynamics of settlement expansion and decline and the economic adaptation to this marginal, high-altitude environment.

On the delta at the mouth of Unkar Creek, the School of American Research undertook the first excavations ever carried out in the Grand Canyon.With 52 recorded sites, Unkar delta holds one of the largest concentrations of ruins in the canyon, representing four different periods of occupation between A.D. 900 and 1150. This volume offers thorough descriptions of the material culture of the Unkar inhabitants and reconstructs their settlement history and way of life.
