Finding History in the Archaeological Record: The Upper Piman Settlement of Guevavi

Pages 245-260 | Published online: 26 Jul 2016
 

ABSTRACT

Archaeological survey in the vicinity of Guevavi Mission in southern Arizona has found evidence of an Upper Piman settlement located near the mission. This site likely represents one of the aboriginal settlements of Guevavi documented in early historic records, perhaps one of the late seventeenth or early eighteenth century settlements occupied during the Jesuit presence in this region. The site is placed within an archaeological and historical context with a discussion of the evidence used to identify Upper Piman sites. This answers the question about where the Indian settlement was located, at least during a portion of its history.
