content: The Puerco River Project (1970-1981) was an outgrowth of the Anasazi Origins Project which related to settlement patterns in northern New Mexico, including the relations between "the more advanced and complex cultural centers located in Chaco Canyon" and the "relatively simpler, dispersed rural Pueblo population indigenous to the area" ("Puerco manuscript, 1988") and the relationship between man and environment.
