Sunset and shadows fall across a building in Lowry Pueblo, an archeological site located in Canyon of the Ancients National Monument. A treasure


Sunset and shadows fall across a building in Lowry Pueblo, an archeological site located in Canyon of the Ancients National Monument. A treasure of Ansazi Indian ruins in Colorado, the pueblo was constructed around 1060 AD atop abandoned pit houses from an earlier period of occupation. A total of 40 rooms and 8 kivas at its peak in the early 11th century, it was home to approximately 100 people. The 176,000 acre monument of federal land administered by the Bureau of Land Management includes 20,000 archeological sites.
