Abstract

Linguistic and archaeological data indicate that for two or more centuries near A.D. 1000, some Yuman groups lived in close association with speakers of Upper Piman, a language unrelated to the Yuman language family. An examination of archaeological, ethnographic, and linguistic information leads to the inference that Yuman-Piman bilingualism developed within the Hohokam culture area of southern Arizona. Comparison of Yuman and Hohokam burial practices strongly supports the linguistic analysis. The study also explores the cultural-historical implications for Hohokam development within the framework of the regional system concept.
