Mimbres Foundation

So the lead could be: "The Mimbres Foundation conducted excavations in the Mimbres Valley, producing a final report that provides detailed data on community organization, agricultural systems, social structure, and the Classic Mimbres collapse ^[2][1]." That covers what, where, and why it matters.

"The Mimbres Foundation conducted excavations in the Mimbres Valley, producing a final report that covers sites from the Pithouse period through the Classic Mimbres phase ^[2][1]. The report provides detailed data on community organization, agricultural systems, social structure, and the Classic Mimbres collapse ^[2][1]."

Let me write the lead in present tense: "The Mimbres Foundation is an organization that conducted excavations in the Mimbres Valley, producing a final report with detailed data on community organization, agricultural systems, social structure, and the Classic Mimbres collapse ^[2][1]." That works.

Then the body in past tense: "The foundation's excavations covered sites from the Pithouse period through the Classic Mimbres phase ^[2][1]. Their final report provided detailed data on community organization, agricultural systems, social structure, and the Classic Mimbres collapse ^[2][1]." But this repeats the lead.

LEAD: The Mimbres Foundation is an archaeological organization that conducted excavations in the Mimbres Valley, producing a final report with detailed data on community organization, agricultural systems, social structure, and the Classic Mimbres collapse ^[2][1].

The foundation's excavations covered sites spanning the Pithouse period through the Classic Mimbres phase ^[2][1]. The final report provides detailed data on community organization, agricultural systems, social structure, and the Classic Mimbres collapse ^[2][1].

For example, lead: "The Mimbres Foundation conducted excavations in the Mimbres Valley ^[2][1]." Body: "The foundation's final report covers sites from the Pithouse period through the Classic Mimbres phase and provides detailed data on community organization, agricultural systems, social structure, and the Classic Mimbres collapse ^[2][1]." That way, the lead states the excavation, and the body states the report's scope and contents.

Let me write the lead: "The Mimbres Foundation is an archaeological organization that conducted excavations in the Mimbres Valley ^[2][1]." That's simple and factual.

Body: "The foundation's final report covers sites from the Pithouse period through the Classic Mimbres phase and provides detailed data on community organization, agricultural systems, social structure, and the Classic Mimbres collapse ^[2][1]."

Another chunk, ^[3], is about "The Mimbres People" book, but that's not about the foundation.
