Description

Cliff Palace, the Story of an Ancient City is the story of the cliff dwellers on the Mesa Verde. Cliff Palace is the largest of the dwellings. The history of these dwellings from information formulated by archaeologists and ethnologists tell us about the life of the Pueblo Indians who created the dwellings and lived there. Present-day Indians give us much information in that their customs are very likely much like their ancient ancestors. 142/Softbound/Photographs.
