Aztec West is the largest known great house outside of Chaco Canyon, and its rooms were filled with the same kinds of remarkable objects that were found at Chaco—turquoise and jet ornaments, sacred objects, pottery with traces of cacao from Mesoamerica, and more, much of it indicating a use of the great house for ritual, ceremony, and memory both in the Chacoan and post-Chacoan time periods (see e.g., Crown et al 2015; Gruner 2015; Mattson 2016; Morris 1928; Reed 2011; Washburn and Reed 2011; Webster 2008, 2011).…”
