What reading level is Prehistoric Ruins of the Gila Valley book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The settle- ment spreads over several acres, the houses consisting of low mounds, with indistinct evidences of walls and many fragments of pottery. The sites of these houses are generally marked by rows of stones set on edge. These stones in some cases formerly supported and protected the bases of the walls, which were held upright by logs now much decayed. Shallow excavations at this place revealed the face of the wall in which these upright stones had been set and a hard clay floor, upon whic...h was generally found a layer of char- coal. Evidently the stones served the same purpose as the logs found at Casa Grande, the remainder of the walls and the roof being constructed of perishable material, possibly brush or ocatilla cactus.
Several good vases, one of them in the collection of the University of Arizona, at Tucson, have been excavated at this ruin, which seems rich in specimens and offers unusual advantages for further study.
3. AQUITUNO RUIN (AKUTCINY, RUSSELL) There are several mounds, indicating ancient Casas Grandes, not far from the desert butte, Picacho, that were not visited by the author.
