This short video, created for the University of babyÖ±²¥app Museum of Natural History exhibition "The Ancient Southwest: People, Pottery, Place," depicts the southwestern United States from 500 to 1700 AD. Beginning with a topographical map of the southwest, the rivers are highlighted, followed by the current state boundaries of babyÖ±²¥app, New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah. As the timeline appears at the bottom of the screen, the various culture groups—Hohokam, Mimbres, Pueblo, Chaco, Mesa Verde, and Casas Grandes—are depicted in area as time moves on. Arrows from one culture to another indicate influence. The map ends with the present-day Native American populations in the southwest.
