 Title:  The Material Culture of Pueblo Bonito  
 Published:  2005 
 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Modern English collection | UVA-LIB-Text | Smithsonian miscellaneous collections | smithsonian miscellaneous collections 
 Description: Pueblo Bonito is a ruined communal dwelling, the home of perhaps 1,000 Indians at the close of the eleventh century, A.D.* *See plate 1, "Pueblo Bonito from the Air." Richard Wetherill's dam is shown in front of and to the right of the ruin; his combined residence and store, at the left corner. At the right margin, the road crosses the 1928 bridge, curves past the site of the National Geographic Society's camp and two abandoned corrals, to end at the black-roofed building that was the Hyde Expedition's boardinghouse. Dimly seen below the latter, the old freight road descends to cross the arroyo, passes a small ruin on the shadowed arroyo edge, and turns southward.

 Title:  The Architecture of Pueblo Bonito :  
 Published:  2005 
 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Modern English collection | UVA-LIB-Text | Smithsonian miscellaneous collections | smithsonian miscellaneous collections 
 Description: This is a story of the growth and decline of a single prehistoric village, Pueblo Bonito. It will have very little to say of other villages, historic or prehistoric. It is a story primarily of houses and house building. By adding to data previously published it seeks to portray the manner in which a twofold Indian community rose to preëminence and thereafter gradually fell apart and was lost.
