The Cliff Dwellings in Mesa Verde - There used to be this narrative that the "Pueblo People mysteriously disappeared!" but there was just a drought that made this area untenable, and they moved like 50 miles away to the river.

The Cliff Dwellings in Mesa Verde - It was a hard life here, and it often wasn't feasible to carry everything away as the droughts persisted. The remainder of perfectly good tools feed the "disappearance" story.

Photo taken February 20, 2018, at the Montezuma Castle National Monument. It was inhabited for over 400 years until approximately 1425 CE and was incorrectly named for the Aztec emperor Montezuma who had no connection to the structure. #cliffdwellings #nativeamericans #nationalmonument #landback

The Cliff Dwellings in Mesa Verde - the National Park system evolved over the decades and are working with the Pueblo people to honor and protect their ancestral lands. I fear this is about to reverse course.

We'wha, a Lhamana, was a revered cultural leader and artist. We'wha visited Washington D.C. in 1886 and was mistakenly perceived by Westerners as a woman, but in Zuni culture, they were understood to be a distinct gender.
