I've moved this anonymous contrib here, because it's rather incoherent and has a broken cite. If that contributor could post a working link to their cite, that would be helpful. Thanks, Pete Tillman ( talk) 21:43, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
"The prehistoric Hohokam culture, one of four Oasisamerica traditions of the Ancient Pueblo People, created the archaeological structures and items of Pueblo Grande. It is believed that this area was settled around 450 BC. Due to major population movements, among other factors, the site was abandoned by 1450 BC.
Pueblo Grande features a large platform mound with retaining walls, that was formerly surmounted by walled structures. This massive structure contains over 20,000 cubic meters (yards) of fill. There were also many dwellings, and at least three ball courts. Construction of the ball courts was begun by 750 BC"
Surely they meant AD/CE and not BC/BCE? TangoFett ( talk) 22:09, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
“Some time after AD 1100, the Hohokam archaeological tradition discontinued use of their ballcourts. Many of the ballcourts were filled in with trash and platform mounds, such as the one at Pueblo Grande became more prominent at Hohokam sites.”
