Hisat'sinom - Ancient Peoples in a Land Without Water

When the Spanish conquistadors first came to northern Arizona, they proclaimed it the 'sierra sin agua', mountains without water, because of the peculiar absence of rivers and streams. But this harsh, beautiful land has long nourished humans. Showcasing new research from Wupatki, Sunset Crater, and Walnut Canyon, this tells the story of the adaptive peoples who inhabited this region and borrowed from their Ancestral Pueblo and Hohokam neighbours while maintaining distinctive styles of their own.
