The Davis Ranch Site - A Kayenta Immigrant Enclave in Southeastern Arizona

The results of Rex Gerald's excavations and Archaeology Southwest's San Pedro Preservation Project (1990-2001) indicate that the people of the Davis Ranch Site were part of a network of dispersed immigrant enclaves responsible for the origin and spread of Roosevelt Red Ware pottery, the key material marker of the Salado phenomenon.
