National Register of Historic Places in Montezuma County
Set aside as a National Monument in 1919, this Chacoan "outlier" site with tree ring dates of AD 1163 through 1263 represents a culmination of the long sequence of Formative Period cultural development of southwestern Colorado. This habitation site with public architecture, including a great kiva, has the potential to address questions regarding population dynamics and abandonment, agricultural techniques and water control systems, and social and political integration.
