Be SORIGINAL TRADE BETWEEN THE SOUTHWEST
AND CALIFORNIA
By Rosert F. HEIzer
HERE has been a notable revival of interest in the subject
of aboriginal commercial relations between the Indians of
the Southwest and California. Among the contributions which
have recently appeared are those by M. J. Farmer,’ D. D.
_ Brand,” H. S. Colton,® C. Malouf, and M. J. Rogers.® Each
of these papers approaches the problem from a_ special
point of view, and each author makes recommendations for
more careful recording and presentation of material by future
workers.
Brand makes a plea for more accurate nomenclature of
species of shells found on archeologic sites, and has been
further instrumental in making available a list of authorities
who will perform services of identification.® Rogers has presented what we might call the necessary historical background
-and ethnic situation for California in which this commodity
interchange was operative. His paper offers few actual data
Colton has cited evidence of intrusive
trade cbjects, as well as the historical background for the
Southwestern area. Although Malouf’s paper is primarily con‘cerned with trade within the Northern Periphery of the
~ Southwest, his request that authors be more careful in mineralogical identification of artifact materials is directed at all
workers: in all areas.
What has been written on this subject seems to be primarily
_ aimed at demonstrating the fact of trade relations, and secondarily, at determining the routes of introduction. It seems
to me that one of the most valuable results of these studies
has been completely neglected: the possibility of extending
the unique chronology of the Southwest into outside areas
where exact dating is impossible to determine. For example,
