Excavations at Kinnikinnick, Arizona
View through CrossRef
The tree-ring record in the Flagstaff area goes back to about 500 A.D., with one gap in the sequence prior to 1317 A.D. To close this gap of forty years, a sampling was taken from Kinnikinnick ruin on Anderson Mesa twenty-two miles southeast of Flagstaff. Material found there in June, 1940, by Dr. A. E. Douglass, yielded dates from the earlier part of this missing period. The location of the site on the postulated southern boundary of the Sinagua branch of the Mogollon made it of further significance. It seems to have escaped notice by early investigators, is pot-hunted very little, and has not been reported on up to this time.
