The introduction is meant to be a summary of the article, but there was some new information introduced:

Harriet and C.B. Cosgrove of Silver City, NM conducted the earliest scientifically documented excavations on the Mimbres River from 1919 to 1927, focusing on a site a few miles upriver from the NAN Ranch Ruin. Harriet Cosgrove is celebrated as a pioneering woman archeologist, and her notes and reports are the basis of The Swarts Ruin: A Typical Mimbres Site in Southwestern new Mexico (Papers of the Peabody Museum) (1932), which is considered a foundational publication in Southwestern archaeology. Excavation photography and research collaboration were provided by C.B. Cosgrove.

New information should be added to the body of the article and should be cited. If you need help with this, let me know.--CaroleHenson (talk) 23:31, 4 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
