Enclosed in the industrial southern part of the town of Lorca (Murcia), the Archaeological Park of Los Cipreses occupies the site of an important settlement which dates back to the 3rd millennium BC, and belongs to the so called El Algar Culture. It had eight huts of oval shape, half dug in the soil and with stone walls. The settlement was discovered in 1992 during building works for the local sports centre and was therefore excavated.

By AD 900, around the time Cohoninas lived at Clover Ruin, they were probably growing crops such as corn, beans and squash. Cohonina sites extended north of the San Francisco Peaks at this period, as well as to the south rim of the Grand Canyon and into the Inner Gorge. The Cohonina abandoned their "heartland area” around present day Williams by the late 1000s.

Gene Fornby - the Ancient Village of Gene

Carl L. Thunberg (SE)

I have for years, through articles, debate and political activities, been a very active part in the efforts to preserve Gene Fornby from demolition. The cause seemed long doomed to be lost, but in the end the saving-line won. Therefore the longhouse and the smithy, in my opinion the important reconstructions, will be preserved and restored.
