Housing approximately 2,000 ancient Pueblo Indians between AD 925 and 1125, the settlement included a Great House Pueblo with round ceremonial rooms, known as kivas, and 36 ground-floor rooms. A grizzly bear jaw found in one of the rooms when excavated suggested a reverence for the animal, and modern Chaco oral history suggests that the Bear clan originated in the Chimney Rock area. Evidence suggests that Great House Pueblo was first built in AD 1076 during a lunar standstill and expanded and finished in AD 1093 during another. It consists of 36 rooms and two kivas. (Wikepedia)

The Ancestral Pueblo people were living at Far View at least 200 years before they began building the more famous Mesa Verde cliff dwellings. Excavation also reveals that many people chose to remain in their mesa top community well after many of their neighbors moved into the cliff alcoves.  (The NPS)

Far View was one of the most densely populated parts of the mesa from A.D. 900 to about A.D. 1300. Nearly 50 villages have been identified within a half square mile area, and were home to hundreds of people. Today, several excavated and stabilized sites are linked by a trail system within a short walking distance. These surface sites include Far View House, Pipe Shrine House, Coyote Village, Far View Reservoir, Megalithic House, and Far View Tower.  (The NPS)

The Wallace site is a C-shaped, two story house mound with an estimated 73 rooms (50 ground floor) and five kivas, two of which are boxed-in, Chaco-style kivas (Bradley 1988). The 3-4-m-high house mound, including the second-story areas, has an estimated floor area of 1,080 m2. The roughly symmetrical, regular layout suggests large-scale planning; but since only a small portion of the site has been excavated, the size of the construction units is not known.    (Chaco Research Archives

The group of structures cumulatively termed Yucca House is situated on the low, eastern slopes of Ute Mountain, immediately south of Aztec Divide, near the headwaters of Navajo Wash. Cortez is to the northeast and Towaoc is to the southwest. Elevation is 1,805 m (5,920 feet) above sea level.

The two main units at Yucca House are the Lower and Upper Houses. The description here does not include the large multi-story Lower House with the tower kivas; from the surface, there is no evidence that this building was occupied during the Chaco period. Some contend that Upper House, the bulding with the enclosed plaza and great kiva in the center is a Chaco-period building, and that is described here. There is a second great kiva associated with a roomblock to the south of the multistory roomblock. Ceramics from the surface: 82% Mesa Verde and 18% McElmo.  (Chaco Research Archives)

Pueblo Alto contains about 130 masonry rooms and 18 kivas; the roomblocks appear to have been single-story throughout.  Unlike most other great houses of the same time, Pueblo Alto does not appear to have a great kiva.  Initial construction of this classic D-shaped great house occurred about A.D. 1020, with additions and renovations continuing into the late 1000s. The front arc of rooms enclosing the plaza likely was added in the early 1100s.  A large trash mound lies 150 feet (46 m.) southeast of the pueblo.  A low masonry wall connects Pueblo Alto to the nearby great house of New Alto.   The site was partially excavated by the National Park Service’s Chaco Project, primarily from 1976 to 1978, by Thomas Windes, Peter McKenna, Wolky Toll, and several other Chaco Project archaeologists.  The undertaking included trenching the refuse mound which also had been examined in 1927 by Frank Roberts Jr. as part of his effort to identify the sequence of pottery types used by Chacoans through time.  (Chaco Research Archives)

Built between circa 1100 and circa 1130, West Ruin measures 359 x 280 feet. It contains 221 ground floor rooms and is estimated to have had as many as 353 rooms in a structure that once stood three stories. The great house is laid out in a U-shape plan that faces southeast across a large plaza, with rectangular blocks on the north, east, and west sides, and a curved wall of single rooms enclosing the plaza on the south side. A great kiva, 48 feet in diameter, dominated the plaza; 28 other probable kivas are located both around the plaza and inside the room blocks. Morris found evidence that construction of the West Ruin began with a large earth platform, and he concluded that the entire building must have been planned from the outset.  (SAH)

The Holmes Group is considered one of the largest and most complex of all the Chaco-period occupation sites. In 1984, archaeologists Richard Watson and Margaret Powers identified and mapped 127 surface features at the site. Rubble mounds are all that remain of a series of structures and features built from dressed sandstone and river cobbles that include two Great Houses, two Great Kivas, and two cobble masonry structures. The Chacoan Great Houses two or more stories high and made of finely trimmed and fitted stone with unusually large, often over–built rooms. The Great Kivas are 60 feet or more in diameter and remnants of Chaco style pottery is abundant across the site.  (The Archaeological Conservancy)

Site Description

A small house site on the south side of the canyon along a natural hillside.  Bc 57 is adjacent to Bc 58 and approximately 400 feet (122 m.) northeast of Casa Rinconada. The site was excavated by the University of New Mexico and School of American Research field school under the direction of Paul Reiter and includes approximately nine masonry rooms, three enclosed kivas, one exterior kiva, and one pithouse.  Ceramic assemblages from the site’s refuse-filled rooms suggest that activity at and around the site likely spanned the 9th, 10th, and 11th centuries, but was not continuous throughout that period.  (The Chaco Research Archives)

A small-house site located on the south side of the canyon between Bc 57 and Casa Rinconada, approximately 290 feet (85 m.) northeast of the latter and along the same natural hillside.  Bc 58 was excavated during the 1947 season of the University of New Mexico and School of American Research field school under the direction of Paul Reiter and includes roughly 14 masonry rooms and three kivas (two of which are subsurface).  Rather than the simple rectangular footprint of Bc 57, the roomblock of Bc 58 is amorphous, suggesting rooms may have gradually been added as necessary.  No formal excavation report was completed for the site, but photographs, field notes, ceramic tallies, and student papers are archived at the Maxwell Museum of Anthropology and the Chaco Culture National Historical Park Museum Collection at the University of New Mexico.  Analysis of the faunal remains has shown that birds are not as common at Bc 58 as at Bc 57, but artiodactyls are roughly twice as common (proportionally) as at other small house sites in the canyon.  Although the site has now been backfilled, it is adjacent to the Casa Rinconda trail.

Alternative site numbers are 29SJ398 and LA 40398.  (The Chaco Research Archives)

Initial excavations revealed two-thirds of the site – including 13 rooms and three kivas.  Continued excavations ultimately revealed around 30 rooms and five kivas.  Many of the rooms at Bc 59 were irregularly shaped compared to the other small house sites in the immediate vicinity.  This site is visible along the Casa Rinconada trail.

Four tree-ring dates from a handful of beams recovered in Kiva 2 indicate harvest dates from A.D. 1050-1110.  The dominant ceramic types are consistent with construction in the last half of the 11th century and the first half of the 12th century.  Frequencies of other ceramic types also suggest the possibility of an earlier, 10th century occupation.

Alternate designations for this site are 29SJ399, LA 40399, and Tom Matthew’s Dig.  (The Chaco Research Archives)

1849, the Washington Expedition, a military reconnaissance under the direction of Lt. James Simpson, surveyed Navajo lands. As the party traveled west from Santa Fe, Pueblo Pintado (Spanish for "painted village") was the first Chacoan site they encountered. This Chacoan site was also known as Pueblo de los Ratones, or "village of the mice," Pueblo Colorado or "red village," and Pueblo Grande, or "large village." Its Navajo name is Kin teel, or "wide house." Pueblo Pintado is located 16 miles southeast of Pueblo Bonito and is the easternmost of the Chacoan great houses in the immediate Chaco Canyon area.

The great house is a massive L-shaped building, open to the southeast. The building is terraced, from 3 stories on the outside corner to the single-story enclosed kivas on the interior corner. About 20 single-story rooms enclose the plaza and a large enclosed kiva. The entire great house contained 90 ground-floor rooms, 40 second-story rooms, and 5 third-story rooms. A hundred feet southeast of the building is a subterranean great kiva 58 feet in diameter.  (Aztec NM)

Skunk Springs Community (LA 7000) is situated approximately five miles southwest of Newcomb, New Mexico. It is located on a prominence called Grey Mesa and in the Black House Valley that unfolds to the south. Elevations in the area range from 5,500 ft to 5,900 ft. The great house, known as Black House, and several large villages occupy the southern edge of the mesa, but the remainder of the community extends outward into the valley below. Black House Valley may be characterized as a broad plain that slopes gently to the northeast. Aeolian and alluvial sediments are mixed on this plain, thus providing arable land that is still cultivated today by local Navajo farmers. Run-off from the eastern slopes of the Chuska Mountains is funneled into Tuntsa and Skunk Springs washes, which provide the valley with water.  (Chaco Reserch Archives)

Also known as Morris 40, while the great house is LA 1988. In 1935, Deric Nusbaum representing the Carnegie Institution, conducted a brief reconnaissance of the Squaw Springs nuclear community area. Nusbaum recognized the presence of 43 ruins in proximity to the springs and the importance of the large pueblo central to the complex, which is defined here as the Squaw Springs community center, LA 1988. The form, size, and estimated number of rooms and kivas was defined by Nusbaum for each site; however, the specific locations and temporal affinities were not recognized.

The ruins which represent the Squaw Springs nuclear community complex are clustered in an area approximately 2.0 km NE-SW x 1.0 km NW-SE, situated at the base of a massive slick rock uplift about Navajo, Cottonwood, and Squaw Springs.  (Chaco Research Archives)

The house is a linear “U” shaped structure with a contiguous subrectangular plaza on the south which gives the entire structure a “D” shaped form. The maximum E-W dimension of the house is approximately 30 m and the maximum N-S dimension including the plaza area is 28 m. The long E-W stem and the N-S stem on the east are tier two-rooms wide, while the N-S stem of the west is a single-room wide. “At least the back (north) tier of the house is two stories and portions of the front and sides may also have been of similar height” (Powers et al. 1977). Mound elevations extend to 3.0 m. There is an estimated twenty-four floor rooms within the house and an additional estimated twelve second-story rooms. A maximum of forty rooms is possible. Indistinct outlines of a few walls are visible. Elements consist of tabular sandstone many of which appear shaped. One exposed wall shows sandstone slabs with spall chinking. The walls are core-veneer structures (Powers et al. 1977).  (Chaco Research Archives)

Three Kiva is a stabilized pueblo located in Montezuma Canyon along County Road B146 about seven miles upcanyon from the Perkins Road (County Road B206). It features a reconstructed kiva with a roof and ladder access, accessed by a short foot path. The remainder of the pueblo is visible as stabilized wall bases, with the upper parts having collapsed prehistorically. About 1,000 years ago, Three Kiva Ruin was part of a large and thriving community that took advantage of the resources that the canyon had to offer. Extensive excavations by a team of archeologists from Brigham Young University revealed 14 rooms and three kivas, a ramada working area, a trash mound, and a possible turkey run. Large portions of this complex have been stabilized, but only one of the kivas is reconstructed. (The BLM)

The Toh La Kai house is an “L” shaped structure which incorporates a great kiva on the northeast and a rectangular plaza on the northwest. The overall dimensions of the complex are 40 m x 43 m, while the maximum structural dimensions of the house alone are 39 m x 20 m. Wilcox estimates total interior floor area of 800 m2. The house is estimated to contain seventeen ground-floor rooms, a single blocked-in kiva, and an enclosed plaza or court on the east which may contain a subterranean kiva. Given the possibility of multiple stories, up to thirty-one rooms may be contained in the block. The elevation of the rubble mound slopes from north to south and ranges from 1 m to over 3 m. The structure appears to be a multiple terrace, with perhaps three stories on the back or south tier. The house was exposed to the north. This is a very unusual situation since, most Anasazi pueblos are oriented to face south or southeast. The reduction of the mound to rounded contours, without walls standing above the rubble, and the presence of only partially visible wall alignments allow for only tentative room size and location estimates. The nature of the rubble and mound contour in the upper back tier does not suggest the presence of elevated kivas but more likely that of rectangular cells.    (Chaco Research Archives)

Tse Bee Kintsoh is one of the larger communities located in the Red Mesa Valley. Surveys have identified several clustered groups of habitations associated with three great houses, four great kivas, and two short prehistoric road segments. The three great houses in Tse Bee Kintsoh appear to be contemporaneous.
Our knowledge of this community derives primarily from three investigations: two pipeline surveys conducted in the mid- and late-1970s by the Office of Contract Archaeology at UNM and a more detailed study by the Navajo Nation Cultural Resource Management Program reported in 1985. Ceramics recorded at habitations in the community reveal a lengthy occupation span from A.D. 750–1143, with the earliest ceramic collections coming from pithouses.  (Chaco Research Archives)

Tsin Kletsin is a small great house located on South Mesa two miles (3.2 km.) south of Pueblo Bonito.  The site consisted of approximately 80 rooms and three kivas (two of which were elevated).  Architecturally, it is considered a transitional site as it juxtaposes a traditional D-shaped layout with McElmo-style veneer.  The site contained both an arced plaza to the south and a rectangular enclosure to the north.  Construction has been dated to the early 12th century based on the masonry style and tree-ring dates. The site has not been excavated.  (Chaco Research Archives)

Twin Angels is an L-shaped, one-story structure of 17 rooms and two kivas. The mound rises to 2.5 m, with a total floor area of 270 m2 estimated (although Wilcox estimates total interior floor area of 470 m2). An examination of the regular layout of the site suggests the large roomblock may have been constructed during a single planned construction phase. But since data on wall construction sequences have not been reported and no tree-ring dates have been obtained, this is conjectural. Whether the small four-room block to the east was constructed previously, contemporaneously, or subsequently is also unknown.  


Because the site was partially excavated by Morris in 1915, a number of rooms are open, revealing core and veneer masonry of Chacoan style. Rooms have a mean size of 12.5 m2, and standing walls of 1.2-1.5 m in conjunction with substantial debris suggest that the ceilings were probably high. The single excavated kiva has some Chaco-style features (Carlson 1966).

Ceramics associated with the house mound and talus trash below (Carlson 1966; McKenna 1976) clearly indicate Early Pueblo III to Late Pueblo III occupation.  (Chaco Research Archives)

Una Vida (Spanish for “one life”) is one of the earliest great houses, along with Pueblo Bonito and Peñasco Blanco, and is the fifth largest found in the canyon with about 160 rooms, including some second-story rooms in the western and northern room blocks.  The site is located in the Fajada Gap area – 3.25 miles (5.2 km.) southeast of Pueblo Bonito and 2.3 miles (3.7 km.) southeast of Hungo Pavi.  Tree-ring dates from the oldest portion of the building indicate that construction was initiated in the mid-800s, about the same time as Pueblo Bonito.  That effort may have been limited to the small roomblock that projects to the east of the main great house.  The next building stage began in the mid-10th century and added the western roomblock within the main great house.  The remaining portions of the pueblo appear to have been added between the mid-11th century and about A.D. 1100.  In the historic period, hogans and a corral were constructed on the mounded ruin.  (Chaco Research Archives)
