The introduction is meant to be a summary of the article, but there was some new information introduced:
Harriet and C.B. Cosgrove of Silver City, NM conducted the earliest scientifically documented excavations on the Mimbres River from 1919 to 1927, focusing on a site a few miles upriver from the NAN Ranch Ruin. Harriet Cosgrove is celebrated as a pioneering woman archeologist, and her notes and reports are the basis of The Swarts Ruin: A Typical Mimbres Site in Southwestern new Mexico (Papers of the Peabody Museum) (1932), which is considered a foundational publication in Southwestern archaeology. Excavation photography and research collaboration were provided by C.B. Cosgrove.
