The Chaco Anasazi: Sociopolitical Evolution in the Prehistoric Southwest - New Studies in Archaeology
Lynne Sebastian
Lynne Sebastian examines the transition of the Chaco system from a kinship structured society to a hierarchically organised political structure with institutional roles of leadership. She argues that the increasing political complexity was a consequence of improved rainfall in the region which permitted surplus production, not the harsh conditions as previously thought.
