Description
Mesa Verde National Park is home to many Cliff Dwellings. Kivas, such as the one in this photo, were the center of the social and religious life and likely would have been used for many ceremony in the cliff dwelling communities. The word Kiva comes from the Hopi language. This area of the park is open in the summer and fall and usually has rangers present who provide background information. Most of the cliff dwellings in the park were building between 1150 and 1300.
