"The specific treatment of ceramics is in itself peripheral to the primary importance of this book—that of integrating several distinct disciplinary data sources through the perspective of an important craft tradition, to arrive at a richer understanding of several poorly known aspects of everyday life in the past. The scholarly content of this book is happily complemented by its readability, its copious illustrations, its extensive bibliography, and the careful craftsmanship of its publisher."—Hispanic American Historical Review"Unbelievably thorough study of the development  of the Andalusian ceramic tradition from its earliest precursors to its flourishing in the New World."—Hispanic Journal

Earl Morris and Southwestern Archaeology

Archaeology

Univ of New Mexico Pr

This catalogue describes and illustrates ten centuries of prehistoric southwestern pottery, most of it from the Four Corners country, where New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, and Arizona meet. The pottery shown here was collected by pioneering southwestern archaeologist Earl H. Morris (1889-1956). Since Morris's death, this collection has been housed in the University of Colorado Museum.
Most of the vessels in the Morris Collection are illustrated here. While the catalogue concentrates on pieces from the area between Chaco Canyon and Mesa Verde, a few pots from other regions demonstrate the variations in prehistoric pottery making in the Southwest. Morris's comments from his own catalogue of the collection are included. In addition to describing the vessels, he tells how each came into his possession--where he found it or what he traded for it. The Listers added information about type, size, and provenience.

Chaco Canyon, sprawled in the desert of northwestern New Mexico and uninhabited since the twelfth century, is one of North America's richest archaeological zones. This lavishly illustrated book is the first complete account of Chacoan archaeology, from the discovery of the ruins by Spanish soldiers in the seventeenth century through the scientific analyses of the 1970s.
The authors follow the history of Chacoan archaeology with a vivid portrayal of the day-to-day lives of the Anasazi Indians, the Neolithic farmers who abandoned the region some 800 years ago. Though intended for the general reading public with an interest in archaeology, this book will be useful to professionals as well, as a compendium of information and photography hitherto scattered in numerous separate reports and monographs. Particularly valuable is a list of all investigated sites at Chaco Canyon, including location, features, dates, and other pertinent information.

Aztec Ruins on the Animas: Excavated, Preserved and Interpreted

Husband and wife archaeologists Florence C. and Robert H. Lister and their two children traveled the archaeological world from 1940 to 1990. They produced numerous respected studies in the field of Southwestern archaeology and ceramics. Pot Luck, however, takes the Lister bibliography in a new a direction. Written in the years following Robert Lister's death in 1990, Pot Luck describes professional archaeology in personal terms, offering lively portraits of premier archaeologists and archaeological expeditions alongside vignettes of the Lister children at play and the Lister marriage at work. 
Pot Luck follows the Listers on expeditions in Mexico, the Middle East, Spain, and the Southwest. Lister offers a happy mix of expert knowledge, professional experience, personal reflection, and wonderful writing.

Biographies & Memoirs

Historical

This intriguing book tells the stories of the excavation, restoration, and in some cases, destruction of some of the most interesting archaeological sites in the Southwest. The five sites discussed all contain Kiva wall paintings made by prehistoric peoples of the Colorado Plateau. Lister delineates the archaeological methodology and provides lively narrative history as she describes work done at Lowry Ruin (Colorado), Gran Quivira (New Mexico), Kuaua (New Mexico), Awatovi-Kawaika-a (Arizona), and Pottery Mound (New Mexico) during the formative years between 1930 and 1960.As an insider who participated in these excavations, Lister is able to evoke the personalities of her fellow archaeologists and describe the techniques they used. She assesses their successes and failures with humor and understanding of the challenges involved. Her accounts will interest professional archaeologists and general readers alike.
