The reading and lecture are both about the great houses of Chaco canyon in new mexico. The author of reading states that theories suggest these houses were residential , stored food and was used as a ceremonial center. However, the lecturer casts doubt on the claims made in the article because he thinks that they were not the purpose of these houses.
First of all, the author points that chaco houses were residential and where more than hundreds of families stayed and resembled the houses of native america.This point is challenged by the lecturer. He states that even though the outside resembles like the native Americans the inside did not have enough fireplaces to satisfy the 100 families. Furthermore, he argues that there were only 10 fireplaces and thus claiming that these were not residential.
Secondly, the author contends that these houses were used ad the storage space for maize.The article notes that maize was their major crop supply. The lecturer rebuts the argument. He suggests that there no evidence upon excavation there indicating the supply of maize. Likewise, there were no more remains of maize evident upon observing.
Finally the author argues states that the houses were used as ceremonial center where special services were conducted. The article shows that there were mounts in these houses which when excavated revealed broken pots indicating the remnants their festive meals conducted.The lecturer contradicts this statement. He posits that they were remains of discarded building materials and the pots were assumed to be used by the construction workers who worked used and ate in it.
In conclusion the points made by the lecturer casts doubt on the reading.
