*** About Mesa Verde National Park: Mesa Verde, located in southwest Colorado, is rich with the heritage of the Ancestral Puebloans who inhabited the area from 600 to 1300 AD. The park protects some of the best-preserved archaeological sites in the United States, including 600 cliff dwellings. These structures, crafted from sandstone, wood, and mortar, are significant both for their architectural ingenuity and their ability to tell the story of a sophisticated society that once thrived in the arid landscapes of the American Southwest. Today, Mesa Verde National Park serves not only as a vital archaeological research site but also as a poignant reminder of the adaptive resilience of ancient societies.
