The Chihuahua Culture Area

Abstract

The northwestern corner of Chihuahua possesses an especial interest for the student of the historical geography of western America as it is situated upon the most direct and most likely line of cultural contacts between south MVexico and the. American Southwest. From the American border to Zacatecas lies an expanse whose pre-Spanish settlement history is virtually unknown and unstudied. Only by a series of studies, based on archaeologic and historical data interpreted in the light of an intimate knowledge of the terrain, can be evaluated the significance of this area to man. The writer has attempted such a study for the most northern of the cultural areas into which this culture corridor is divisible.'"
