<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">The resource depression and intensification project included over thirty faunal datasets from archaeological sites in the US Southwest that date between ~ 1200 and 1500 C.E., and
was designed to address this main question: <i>What is the relationship between faunal resource procurement and demographic, social organizational, and environmental change?
</i>These hypotheses were explored: 1) Human population persistence and concentration on the landscape resulted in large mammal resource depression. Environmental conditions affected the threshold human population values that caused resource depression.
2) Turkey husbandry was intensified to make up for the reduction in large mammal populations.
