Definition: The Naco site, located in Greenbush Draw near the town of Naco in Arizona on the border with Mexico, was where evidence of Clovis hunting mammoth was found back in the mid-1950s.
The town of Naco is also known for its role as a border town, and recent studies conducted by Homer Thiel have emphasized its European-American history of the 19th and 20th centuries.
