| Summary | "Aztec Ruins National Monument, New Mexico" by John M. Corbett is a historical account written in the early 1960s. The publication serves as a guide to the Aztec Ruins, detailing the archaeological significance, history, and cultural context of the area. It likely appeals to those interested in archaeology, pre-Columbian history, and the early inhabitants of the American Southwest. The opening of the work introduces the context and environment surrounding the Aztec Ruins National Monument, emphasizing the significance of the San Juan River basin as a vital area for ancient populations. Readers learn about the early hunters, gatherers, and the gradual evolution of these peoples into more settled agricultural societies. Corbett paints a vivid picture of the early inhabitants’ interaction with the land, their food sources, and their eventual transition into complex communal living structures known as pueblos, setting the stage for a detailed exploration of the Aztec site itself and its historical importance.
