Coastal Foragers of the Gran Desierto
2024
Overview
The result of nearly twenty years of interdisciplinary research,
this volume contributes to the archaeological and
paleoenvironmental knowledge of an important but lightly
investigated hyperarid coastline at the heart of the Sonoran
Desert. Focused on the coast near Puerto Peñasco, Sonora, Mexico,
Coastal Foragers of the Gran Desierto examines the diverse
groups occupying the coast for salt, abundant food sources, and
shells for ornament manufacturing. The archaeological patterns
demonstrated by the data gathered lead to the conclusion that,
since ancient times, this coastal landscape was not a marginal zone
but rather an important source of food and trade goods, and a
pilgrimage destination that influenced broad and diverse
communities across the Sonoran Desert and beyond.
