La région des Mogollons (en vert). Elle est voisine des cultures Hohokam (en violet) et Anasazi (en orange). Les trois sites archéologiques les plus importants de cette région sont Mesa Verde (1), Chaco Canyon (2) et Gila Cliff (3). Mogollon (prononciation : « mogoïonne ») est le nom qui a été donné à l'époque contemporaine à une culture amérindienne qui s'est développée entre le IIe et le XVe siècle dans les actuels États d'Arizona, du Nouveau-Mexique (situés au sud-ouest des États-Unis), de Chihuahua et de Sonora (situés au nord-ouest du Mexique). Elle présente des similitudes avec certaines autres cultures d'Oasisamérique comme celles des Hohokams et des Anasazis, qui en étaient contemporaines.

Mogollon, Nouveau-Mexique. Mogollon, also called the Mogollon Historic District, is a former mining town located in the Mogollon Mountains in Catron County, New Mexico, in the United States.
Located east of Glenwood and Alma, it was founded in the 1880s at the bottom of Silver Creek Canyon to support the gold and silver mines in the surrounding mountains. A mine called "Little Fannie" became the most important source of employment for the town's populus. During the 1890s Mogollon had a transient population of between 3,000 to 6,000 miners and, because of its isolation, had a reputation as one of the wildest mining towns in the West.[2][3] Today Mogollon is listed as Fannie Hill Mill and Company Town Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places.[4] History[edit]
Américains anciennes. The mountain I used to prospect for several years is covered with ruins wherever there is water.
Big ruins. I used to sit on one near my camp and try to imagine what it must have been like. One summer solstice afternoon I was sitting on the cliff boundary of the ruin watching the sunset. In the basin below there’s a volcanic knob out toward the center of the plains. I’d discovered a single kiva on top of it years before and puzzled over it vaguely. Native Americans - Mogollon. As the desert Indians of the Formative Period (early first millennium to late prehistoric times) emerged from their hunting and gathering past and turned increasingly to a village and agricultural future, the three major groups – the Mogollon, the Hohokam and the Anasazi – all belonged to the same cultural congregation but they occupied differing environmental regions.
The Mogollon had to adapt to the forested mountain ranges and high Chihuahuan Desert basins of southeastern Arizona, southern New Mexico, western Texas, and northern Chihuahua and northern Sonora; the Hohokam and their cultural cousins, the Patayan, to the relentlessly hot Sonoran desert country of south-central and western Arizona, southeastern California and northern Sonora; and the fabled Anasazi, to the arid canyons and mesas of the Colorado Plateau.

D'autres logements se trouvaient au sommet de la falaise, et le long des ruisseaux : il y a des ruines partout où l'eau était disponible.
