Abstract

More than 450 copper bells from 62 archaeological sites in the Southwest are summarized in tabular form, with site name and location, size and shape, chronological placement, present location, and published references listed for each bell. This tabulation provides a foundation for making typological comparisons of Southwest bells with those from the probable Mexican centers of origin.
