Chihuahua tradition

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Chihuahua (Southeastern) Tradition (?6000 BC to c. AD 250) was a culture of south-central New Mexico and Chihuahua is still poorly defined and probably includes several local adaptations that evolved over long periods of time. Irwin-Williams' hypothesis of four interacting Southwestern Archaic traditions, which differ from other traditions such as the Plains Archaic is still, at best, provisional.
