Mogollon (250 BC to c. AD 1450): This tradition, centered on the mountains of that name in southwestern Arizona and southwestern New Mexico is named after an early Spanish Colonial governor of New Mexico. The distinctive red-on-brown and polished red Mogollon ceramics are found over a large area from the Little Colorado River in the north well into Mexico in the south, and from Globe, Arizona, to El Paso, Texas in the east. The Mogollon displays great variation, and has been divided into several stages on the basis of changing pithouse designs and ceramic styles.
