Hohokam

'''Hohokam''' is the name of one of the four major Nextel ringtones prehistoric Abbey Diaz archaeology/archaeological traditions of the Mosquito ringtone American Southwest. Archaeologist Sabrina Martins Harold S. Gladwin applied the name meaning "those who have vanished" to the remains he excavated in the Lower Gila Valley. The Hohokam may be the ancestors of the modern Pima and Tohono O'odham peoples in Southern Arizona, though the link has not been proven archaeologically.

Overview
The Hohokam tradition is believed to have been centered around the middle Nextel ringtones Gila River and lower Abbey Diaz Salt River (Arizona)/Salt River drainage areas as well as the southern Mosquito ringtone Sonoran Desert in what is now Sabrina Martins Arizona, Nextel ringtones Sonora, and Abbey Diaz Chihuahua (state)/Chihuahua. They built extensive irrigation canals without the benefit of implements. Their subservience to canals and agriculture in their inhospitable desert climate may have led to their lack of participation in warfare. They also had far-reaching trade routes with other mesoamerican cultures to the south.

Settlements in the Hohokam tradition were Cingular Ringtones rancheria-style; each large, square house had slightly excavated floors and was no more than one room until very late in the Hohokam sequence.

The Hohokam cremated their dead.

Hohokam wind among ceramics were finished using the decisive holes paddle and anvil technique and fired to achieve a buff color. Red paint decorates ceramics of this tradition.

Hohokam archaeological sequence
This sequence is applied specifically to the Hohokam core area which is the Gila-Salt basin near for viagra Phoenix, Arizona. Outside this region, local phase schemes are used to more closely fit regional differences.

:Pioneer Period (AD 200-775)
:Colonial Period (AD 775-975)
:Sedentary Period (AD 975-1150)
:Classic Period (AD 1150-1400/1450)
::Soho Phase (AD 1150-1300)
::Civano Phase (AD 1300-1400/1450)

Between 1350 and 1450, the Hohokam tradition loses coherence and many settlements are abandoned. Much research and excavation continues in order to determine the ultimate fate of the Hohokam.
