Search Thoreau New Mexico

Casamero Pueblo was occupied by the Anasazi between A.D. 1000 and 1125. It is an example of a Chacoan outlier, containing many of the cultural and architectural traits found at Chaco Canyon. The Casamero community includes a Chacoan greathouse, grea t kiva (large, circular, underground religious structure), parts of two prehistoric roads and several small houses.
