Trade Review
By documenting the depositional history and contents of the House of the Cylinder Jars, the authors have provided us a wealth of new insights that help place this room within Pueblo Bonito's larger context. The book demonstrates how small, careful excavations can produce an abundance of new information."--Barbara J. Mills, coeditor of The Oxford Handbook of Southwest Archaeology

"Patricia L. Crown and her colleagues have done remarkable research on the cylinder jars, on the room in which they were found, and on the sequence and meaning of the cylinder jar cache, purposefully left to remain after Chaco was no more."--Stephen H. Lekson, author of A History of the Ancient Southwest
