With a new <a target="_blank" href="/parkssite/Pages/Virtual-Programming.aspx">webpage</a>, Pueblo Grande now offers free and fee-based
virtual programming for educators and schools. The free programming includes a
10-minute introduction and overview of the site, and two videos from the

<p><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"helvetica",sans-serif;color:#1c1e21;background:white;">The fifth volume in the Pueblo Grande Archival
Project Series (Archival Series) focuses on artifacts collected during
excavations on and around the Pueblo Grande platform mound from the 1930s
through the 1980s. The goal of this special studies volume was to gather
and summarize the data collected during all the previous investigations. The
Hohokam (culturally affiliated with the O’Odham Tribes) were an archaeological
tradition who used stone, clay, animal bones and hides, natural vegetation, and
agricultural crops in their daily activities for shelter and subsistence. They
were also a religious society that likely included priests, healers, and
shamans. The roles of different villagers were almost certainly reflected in
their material culture. The studies presented in this volume enhance our
current understanding of the people who lived at Pueblo Grande.</span></p>
<p>
<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"helvetica",sans-serif;color:#1c1e21;background:white;">A team of professional archaeologists
volunteered their time to research and write about these collections. The book is
available for purchase in our gift shop! Check out the link below! </span>
