A Pit House of the Gallina Phase
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 January 2017
Extract
As part of the Gallina project in north central New Mexico, which has been carried on by the University of New Mexico since 1934 under the direction of Frank C. Hibben, a pit house site was excavated in the summer of 1950. Excavations were accomplished with the able assistance of Emily Gray and 4 local workmen. The author was in charge of the field work. This site was selected because the pit house had been the least investigated of Gallina architectural types, and also because it was in the as yet unworked southwestern periphery of the Gallina complex. Furthermore, surface indications showed this particular site to be a Gallina pit house of unusual size.
