Abstract

The ceramic evidence from 10 sites in the lower Salt River valley, Arizona, represents the entire temporal interval defined as the pre-Classic era of Hohokam prehistory. These data indicate that nearly all of the clay pots consumed in the valley over a period lasting six centuries were manufactured by just a few potter groups. The uninterrupted duration, high volume, and the large variety of vessel forms and wares produced for exchange may have been unparalleled in the prehistoric Southwest. A temporally comprehensive model of pottery manufacture in the Phoenix basin is presented, its implications for the origins of specialization, and the influence of intensive irrigation are discussed. In addition, the implications are considered for a previously published model of the Hohokam economy centered on marketplace transactions (Abbott, Smith, and Gallaga 2007).

Résumé

Résumé

La evidencia de cerámica procedente de 10 sitios ubicados en la parte baja del Valle del Río Salado, Arizona, representa el intervalo temporal entero definido como la era pre-Clásica de la prehistoria Hohokam. Estos datos indican que casi todas las vasijas de barro consumidas en el valle durante un período de seis siglos fueron fabricados por unos cuantos grupos de alfareros. La duración ininterrumpida, las grandes cantidades, y la variedad de formas y lozas de los recipientes producidos para el intercambio pudieron haber sido sin par en el suroeste prehistórico. En este artículo se presenta un modelo temporalmente comprensivo de la fabricación de la cerámica en el cuenco de Phoenix. Se exponen también sus implicaciones para el origen de la especialización y la influencia de la irrigación intensiva. Además, se consideran las consecuencias para un modelo previamente publicado sobre la economía Hohokam que se centraba en las transacciones mercantiles (Abbott, Smith, and Gallaga 2007).
