Pueblo Peoples of American Southwest Were Expert Gardeners, Study Shows

Culturally Significant Plant Species of the Pueblo Peoples The latest study focused on artifact-rich locations that had at one time been occupied by the Pueblo peoples of the Colorado Plateau, including the Hopi, Zuni, Utes, and the Navajo (Diné). The scientists were primarily interested in searching for culturally significant Pueblo peoples’ plant species that grow in the area. Puebloan populations in the region were at their peak 1,000 years ago, and these species would have been used back then and in later years for food, medicine, and ceremonial or religious purposes. In total, the researchers identified and collected samples from more than 117 species of plant they knew had some significance to ancient and modern indigenous residents related to the Pueblo peoples. All of these species were found in the vicinity of various Puebloan archaeological sites , and other locations in the area were checked to see if the same types of plants could be found outside those sites.

Ancient Native Americans may have cultivated medicinal plants in Bears Ears, study finds

Ancient Native Americans may have cultivated medicinal plants in Bears Ears, study finds Brian Maffly © Provided by Salt Lake Tribune (The Natural History Museum of Utah) University of Utah anthropologist Brian Codding surveys an archaeological site in the Bears Ears region, documenting the presence of plants with cultural importance to Native Americans. U. researchers and their Indigenous colleagues found 31 plant species that grow at such sites, suggesting the Ancestral Puebloans, who occupied these lands centuries ago, carried these plants to these locations where they continue to grow today. Ancient Puebloans left structures, pottery, tools, graves and countless other artifacts in Utah’s Bears Ears region, but they also left plant communities, rich with nutritional and healing properties, which are still growing in and around archaeological sites to this day, according to new research by University of Utah scientists and Indigenous colleagues.

[Read â1,000-year-old petroglyphs marred by graffitiâ -ed.] âCivilization here is supposed to be at a higher level, and yet we degrade ourselves by doing stuff like this,â Lee said.
