Canyons Of The Ancients National Monument

Canyons of the Ancients National Monument protects one of the most significant archaeological landscapes in the United States, preserving more than 176,000 acres of rugged canyons, mesas, and high desert in southwestern Colorado. Home to one of the nation's highest concentrations of known archaeological sites, the monument contains thousands of ancestral Puebloan structures, including cliff dwellings, great houses, kivas, towers, and intricate rock art that date back more than a thousand years. Beyond its remarkable cultural heritage, the monument's sweeping desert scenery and diverse ecosystems provide a striking backdrop that connects visitors to both the natural world and the rich history of the American Southwest.
