Summary:A study intitiated by the Agua Fria National Monument and conducted by the Western Mapping Company and the Museum of Northern Arizona, explores the Perry Mesa site in Yavapai Country, Arizona, documents the collection of artifacts for permanent curation, and includes a history of the research on Perry Mesa and a review of the recent competing theories about how it was organized for war or how the landscape became ecologically degraded. The study also provides an analysis of the relevance of these data to understanding the larger interaction spheres of the Central Arizona Tradition, the Verde Confederacy, and the Hopi macroeconomy.
