Ancient Village or Settlement in San Jaun County, New Mexico.
A Chaco Culture Great House built around 1090AD and occupied, probably by people from Chaco Canyon, untill 1125AD. From 1125 until the site was abandoned in 1280AD it was occupied, but by people from the San Jaun valley and possibly Mesa Verde.
Room blocks with up to 3 stories, an internal tower kiva, and a separately built Great Kiva in the Pueblo plaza. The site was excavated in the 1970s by Eastern New Mexico University, in partnership with the San Juan County Museum Association.
