What looks like a typical sheer walled canyon, actually contains some ruins from the ancestors of modern pueblo people. The dwellings are around 600 years old, and in the above photo are evident by several rows of viga holes seen at roughly 5 O' Clock at the bottom of the wall. These holes were used to hold wooden poles as part of the structure which also made use of cavates, or carved rooms, in the rock wall.
This kiva, is found in the alcove house. This is also known as the ceremonial cave, and is roughly 140 feet above the canyon floor. To reach this cave, one has to climb several long wooden ladders.
