Anasazi dwelling in a cliff cave.

Anasazi is a the Navajo word for the "Ancient ones" that inhabited the Four corners region between around 1AD and 1300.

These indians predated the pueblo peoples. They built masonry buildings in shaded hollows of cliffs where the air is cooler and the homes easier to defend. They lived primarily from farming.

Their houses were abandoned by the time the Navajo people settled into the area.
