Anasazi/Hohokam Point
From the Sonora Desert

L 2.51" W .90"

Anasazi, Ancient Pueblo People or Ancestral Puebloans were a prehistoric Native American culture centered on the present-day Four Corners area of the Southwest United States, noted for their distinctive pottery and dwelling construction styles. Archaeologists still debate when a distinct culture emerged, but the current consensus, based on terminology defined by the Pecos Classification, suggests their emergence around 1200 BC, during the Basketmaker II Era.
The term Hohokam, borrowed from the Akimel O'odham, is used to define an archaeological culture that existed from the beginning of the current era to about the middle of the 15th century AD. As an abstract construct this culture was centered on the middle Gila River and lower Salt River drainages, in what is known as the Phoenix basin.

While the names Anasazi/Hohokam sell better on Ebay, I would be more likely to label this a
San Pedro or variant of some sort.
