Mesa Verde




Mesa Verde is now a national park in Colorado, but over 2,000 years ago it was home to basket makers and tribes. Mesa Verde is amazing for many reasons. These famous dwellings were constructed inside of cliffs. With no stairs, these two to three story homes have lasted through the years. These dwellings were huge in size with each taking up an average of 194 sq.ft. Certain communities had over 200 rooms. Just to see how these communities were constructed and how well they were constructed is amazing.
