The passage was about three theories that the "great houses" were used. But the professor in the lecture did not think that the theories are correct.
Firstly, some archaeologists in the passage thought that the houses were used for people to residential. However, the professor pointed out that although the houses looked like departments from the outside, the number of fire place in it is not enough for hundreds of families to use, which is conflicted with the theory.
In addition, the passage put out another theory that the structures were places to store food such as the grain maize, one of the main crops of the Chaco people. But the professor didn't agree with it, saying that there was much evidence to opposite it. For one thing, the condition in the houses is not suitable for people to store crops; for another, people did not find enough containers to store so much food in the buildings.
Lastly, the theory that the great houses' function as ceremonial centers was also incorrect. Although many broken pots were found in the houses as the passage claimed, many other necessary materials for a ceremony is lacked, so professor thought that the place cannot be used for a ceremony. |
