Any Southwestern archaeologist and readers who want to stay abreast of the details of North American prehistory should read this book. Dr. Walter Hough described the work of the Museum-Gates Expedition in "Archeological Field Work in Northeastern Arizona" in 1900 and 1904. The next year he followed it with a popular account in Harper's Magazine entitled "Ancient Peoples of the Petrified Forest of Arizona." In 1905, Hough unearthed preserved cobs of maize in a cave in New Mexico that helped subsequent archaeologists determine that the Mogollon ethnic group inhabited the area before the Anasazi Puebloans, who were previously considered to be the area's earliest inhabitants. These and accounts of other antiquities by such investigators as Cushing, Frederick W. Hodge, and Edgar L. Hewett were eagerly read by a growing constituency of anthropologists, curators, and educated laymen.
