More detailed discussions of the local environmental setting can be found in Crow Canyon Archaeological Center's investigations at Yellow Jacket Pueblo (Kuckelman 2003c Kuckelman, Kristin A.Ģ003c Subsistence. There will also be a brief review of the historic uses of this area, because they aid in understanding recent site disturbance. 1150-1300) time period.īy briefly examining the community setting, nearby natural resources, and general pattern of climate change in Pueblo III we can frame some of the key research issues at 5MT2 and place Cater's investigations in a broader context. 1160 to 1280 and so the discussion of social setting and subsistence issues in this chapter will focus on the Pueblo III (A.D.
Based on present information, it appears that the two components of occupation at 5MT2 are more likely limited to between A.D. Unpublished MA thesis, Department of Anthropology, University of Colorado, Boulder.). When Wheat began work at 5MT1 and later at 5MT3 he anticipated finding a long occupation sequence at each site, and when Cater began work at 5MT2 in 1986 he also thought that the site occupation might last 200 or more years (Cater 1989 Cater, John D.ġ989 Chronological Understanding of Site 5MT2, Yellow Jacket, Colorado, and a Study of Abandonment Modes.

Additionally, the three sites are only 200 to 500 m from the southwest edge of Yellow Jacket Pueblo (5MT5), the largest known ancestral Pueblo site in the Mesa Verde region (Ortman and others 2000:130-131 Ortman, Scott G., Donna M.

The sites are within the larger Monument and McElmo drainage unit, which overall offers a very favorable setting for agriculture and foraging (Adams and Petersen 1999: Table 2-7 Adams, Karen R. Site 5MT3, a multi-roomblock site with at least 50 rooms, is on a small knoll overlooking Tatum Draw and is approximately 250 m to the northeast of Sites 5MT1 and 2. They are so close to one another that some archaeologists might have classified them as a single site. Sites 5MT1 and 2 are on the same small ridge and only separated from one another by approximately 25 m. The three sites investigated by the University of Colorado Museum's field schools (5MT1, 2 and 3) are separated from a very large site, Yellow Jacket Pueblo (5MT5), by a smaller intermittent drainage named Tatum Draw. The sites are on the north side of Yellow Jacket Canyon, approximately 1.2 km downstream from the point where Yellow Jacket Creek becomes an entrenched canyon. Site 5MT2 is part of the Yellow Jacket Community, a cluster of interrelated archaeological sites which are in the heart of the central Mesa Verde region (Varien 2000: Figure 1 Varien, Mark D.Ģ000 Introduction.
