Description |
The "Bibliography of Southwestern Archaeological Resources" is an online, searchable database containing roughly 2000 citations of articles and books related to Southwestern archaeology.

Evaluating Models of Chaco |
| |
Description |
"Evaluating Models of Chaco" is an online conference sponsored by Stephen H. Lekson and J. McKim Malville of the University of Colorado. Some in-depth descriptive material on Chaco, including an online tour, is included, but the focus of the site is on differing models of Chaco. A bibliography (slightly outdated) is included. The site owners invite feedback, promising to post comments, criticisms, and reactions. Though there is no evidence that the site is current (nothing seems to date beyond the late 90s), this online conference provides a good introduction to competing theories. However, those interested in learning more about Chaco should also consider some more current sources. |
