Shackley 2024. Approximate location of known sources of archaeological obsidian in the North American Southwest. Adapted from Panich et al. (2017); Shackley (1989, 2005, 2019b); Shackley et al. (2016, 2018). Source localities not to scale. Government Mountain is a source in the San Francisco volcanic field (Shackley 1988, 1995, 2005).
Recent research by Shackley reveals obsidian artifacts from northern Sonora Mexico show frequent contact across the Southwest—and hint at a mysterious, unlocated source in the Valle de Altar region. doi.org/10.1080/0023...
