Note | About 1,500 years ago the Ancestral Puebloan people moved into the area now known as Mesa Verde. Over the next 800 years, they built homes and grew crops on the mesa tops. Eventually they built the amazing cliff dwellings at Cliff Palace and then they disappeared. Archaeological excavations in the American Southwest reveal their rich and advanced civilization, and the cultural connections to Native Americans today. |
