对西部莫高隆马诺斯和梅特斯的大小、形状和磨损的分析表明，从皮特豪斯早期(公元200-550年)到乔治敦阶段(公元550-700)，玉米在饮食中的重要性一直很低且稳定。玉米的消费量在旧金山阶段(公元700-825/850)期间增加，并在三环阶段(公元825/850-1000)继续增加。古民族植物学样品中烧焦的玉米片(Zea Mays)普遍存在的变化也表明，从皮塔斯早期到三圈阶段，玉米消费量有所增加。玉米消费量增加的开始与引进一种改良的八行玉米品种大致一致，大约在公元650-700年(Upham等人。1987)。这项研究中提出的分析不符合最近的建议(Gilman 1987；Mauldin 1991)，即在传统的Mimbres阶段(公元1000-1150)之前，西部Mogollon地区的玉米消费一直保持稳定和低水平。
Analyses of the size, shape, and wear on western Mogollon manos and metates reveal that the dietary importance of maize remained low and stable from the Early Pithouse period (A.D. 200–550) through the Georgetown phase (A.D. 550–700). The consumption of maize increased during the San Francisco phase (A.D. 700–825/850) and continued to increase through the Three Circle phase (A.D. 825/850–1000). Changes in the ubiquity of charred pieces of maize (Zea mays) from paleoethnobotanical samples also indicate an increase in maize consumption from the Early Pithouse period through the Three Circle phase. The onset of increased maize consumption roughly coincided with the introduction of an improved variety of eight-row maize, around A.D. 650–700 (Upham et al. 1987). The analyses presented in this study do not agree with recent suggestions (Gilman 1987; Mauldin 1991) that maize consumption in the western Mogollon region remained stable and low until the Classic Mimbres phase (A.D. 1000–1150).
