Abstract
If there is one distinctive event typically associated with the Northern San Juan region it is the “sudden abandonment” of this area in the late thirteenth century. Yet, examination of the process of migration reveals that it is seldom sudden and is often best understood as a historical process with a distinct demographic structure. Analyses of several regional data sets are used to estimate population ranges for the Northern San Juan region for the period between A.D. 950 and 1300. These data, in turn, provide the basis for a discussion and evaluation of the process of population growth and eventual emigration from the region.
