Shell Bracelet  

Did You Know?
A shell bracelet found in the Gila Cliff Dwellings in New Mexico was traced to the Bay of Baha. Many other items indicate trade among the peoples of a large region including macaw parrot feathers, seeds from Mesoamerica, a buffalo scapula, and textiles from plants not grown in the area.
