The Basketmaker III period (500 to 750 CE) also called the "Modified Basketmaker" period, was the third period in which ancient Pueblo people were cultivating food, began making pottery and living in more sophisticated clusters of pit-house dwellings. Hunting was easier with the adoption of the bow and arrow.
The Basketmaker III period is preceded by the Late Basketmaker II period, and is followed by the Pueblo I period.
