Praise from readers . . .

"The republication of The Artifacts of Pecos is a fitting tribute to the
durability of Alfred Vincent Kidder's intellectual legacy in archaeology.
This classic monograph remains required reading for all students of the
past.  A true standard of archaeological description and technique."

                        Michael Adler, Southern Methodist University

"The Artifacts of Pecos set the standard for later works and was seminal in
the development of southwestern archaeology.  It remains today both a basic
reference for the northern Rio Grande and a shining example of clarity,
reason, and felicitous expression of archaeological thought."

                        Stephen H. Lekson, University of Colorado

"Some of the key research questions relating to the late prehistoric
Southwest addressed by Kidder in his groundbreaking study of Pecos Pueblo,
and documented in part in his outstanding volume on the Pecos artifacts,
are still with us today.  The republication of The Artifacts of Pecos will
add new impetus to the discussion and perhaps the solution to these major
issues."

                        Douglas W. Schwartz, School of American Research

"Kidder's pioneering study of the Pecos artifacts was the first systematic
analysis of prehistoric southwestern tools.  It became the model on which
all later efforts-such as Woodbury's Awatovi and Haury's Ventana Cave-were
based, and it continues to provide insight and guidance to present-day
scholars."

                        Raymond H. Thompson, University of Arizona

"The lasting contribution of the Pecos project was its sheer audacity.
Kidder initiated one of the most extensive excavations of a single
archaeological site ever undertaken in the Southwest.  What archaeologists
really admire about Kidder's work is its ambitious optimism about what
scientific archaeology could be."

                        W. H. Wills, University of New Mexico
