The Late Holocene Geomorphic History of Montezuma Canyon, Southeastern Utah, and the Puebloan Agricultural Landscape - Paperback

by Wayne K. Howell (Author), Eric R. Force (Author)

The volume contains a detailed analysis and description of the erosional and depositional history of Montezuma Canyon in southeastern Utah. Evidence of puebloan occupation and agricultural use of the canyon is abundant and reveals how the early farmers took advantage of and adapted to ever-changing conditions in and along the floodplain of this active watershed. Comparative environmental and archaeological data from other nearby studies are discussed, contributing to the broader understanding of human occupation and use of the nothern San Juan River area.
