In this Archaeology Café, Glen Rice and Jeffery Clark present The Salado in Phoenix: Point/Counterpoint.

Much recent archaeological research has focused on what archaeologists refer to as the Salado period, approximately A.D. 1300 to 1450. This was a period of population migration and movement across the Southwest. This movement of northern peoples into the southern Southwest initiated a series of dramatic changes—in how people lived, where they lived, what they believed, and even their ability to survive. Migrants and local groups had to find ways to live together, or at least co-exist as neighbors. Archaeologists don’t all agree on the interpretation of what they have uncovered about this dynamic time period. Drs. Rice and Clark will discuss what we know, (and think we know) about this era in Phoenix history. Expect some lively, yet respectful, disagreements!
