Abstract
DR. J. WALTER FEWKES gives a detailed and fully-illustrated account of his archæological investigations of the Casa Grande, and in the Upper Verde River and Walnut Creek valleys, Arizona, in the Twenty-eighth Annual Report of the Bureau of American Ethnology, 1906–7 (1912). Immediately after the discovery of Casa Grande by Father Kino in 1694, there arose a legend, which became persistent, that it was one of the halting-places of the Aztec on their way south. There is, however, no evidence to connect the inhabitants of this building with any of the tribes of the Mexican plateau.
