The name “Anasazi” means “Ancient Ones,” and they were one of the first groups of people to establish a strong cultural presence in what’s now the southwestern United States. Readers explore what daily life was believed to have been like for the Anasazi people, and they also explore the artifacts and other archaeological finds that have led historians to their beliefs about the Anasazi way of life. Colorful photographs, historical images, and detailed maps help readers visualize life among the Anasazi. Important social studies curriculum topics are presented through engaging main text and informative fact boxes.

In 1994, the author & his wife purchased a 35-acre parcel in the Four-Corners area just outside of Cortez, Colorado. The 1200-acre subdivision known as Indian Camp Ranch is, to the best of anyone's knowledge, the only residential subdivision in the nation that has the preservation of prehistoric Native American archaeological sites as one of its primary objectives. This intriguing book tells two stories. The first recounts how the author & his wife participated in the selection & analysis of one of the nine ancient Anasazi habitation sites on their property & how they participated in the digging & documentation of this site under the direction of a professional archaeological team. The second story is a fictional account which tells about the lives of a young man & his family who inhabited the very same land nearly a thousand years before. This story was inspired by some of the artifacts recovered in the actual dig. Through this fictional account of life in ancient times, the reader will learn about the customs, fears, traditions, as well as the crops & animals used by the early Pueblo people of the American Southwest.

At the height of their power in the late eleventh century, the Chaco Anasazi dominated a territory in the American Southwest larger than any European principality of the time. A vast and powerful alliance of thousands of farming hamlets and nearly 100 spectacular towns integrated the region through economic and religious ties, and the whole system was interconnected with hundreds of miles of roads. It took these Anasazi farmers more than seven centuries to lay the agricultural, organizational, and technological groundwork for the creation of classic Chacoan civilization, which lasted about 200 years--only to collapse spectacularly in a mere 40. Why did such a great society collapse? Who survived? Why? In this lively book anthropologist/archaeologist David Stuart presents answers to these questions that offer useful lessons to modern societies. His account of the rise and fall of the Chaco Anasazi brings to life the people known to us today as the architects of Chaco Canyon, the spectacular national park in New Mexico that thousands of tourists visit every year.

The Anasazi people of the Southwest existed, as a culture, for about eighteen hundred years. They disappeared in about 1300, yet they have left enduring legacies. This book explains how Anasazi culture developed and examines the civilization at its height through the life of the people who lived on top of Mesa Verde and in remarkable dwellings in the mesa's cliffs. It looks at the archaeological discoveries that revealed the ancient culture to modern people and tells of the living legacy: the Pueblo peoples who inhabit the Southwest today. Book jacket.

An exuberant, hands-on fly-on-the-wall account that combines the thrill of canyoneering and rock climbing with the intellectual sleuthing of archaeology to explore the Anasazi. David Roberts describes the culture of the Anasazi—the name means “enemy ancestors” in Navajo—who once inhabited the Colorado Plateau and whose modern descendants are the Hopi Indians of Arizona. Archaeologists, Roberts writes, have been puzzling over the Anasazi for more than a century, trying to determine the environmental and cultural stresses that caused their society to collapse 700 years ago. He guides us through controversies in the historical record, among them the haunting question of whether the Anasazi committed acts of cannibalism. Roberts’s book is full of up-to-date thinking on the culture of the ancient people who lived in the harsh desert country of the Southwest.
