Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mesa Verde National Park was America's first cultural park and also the world's first cultural heritage park. Created in 1906, it preserves the sites and materials of the prehistoric Puebloan people. Located in southwestern Colorado near the famous Four Corners, where the states of Colorado, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico meet, the magnificent Mesa Verde is situated in Montezuma County, just south of Cortez and directly west of Durango. The park's rich archaeological history was played out amid some of the most ruggedly beautiful landscapes in the West. The greater story of the evolution of the park encompasses the Ute people, Theodore Roosevelt, novelist Willa Cather, and other personalities. These remarkable vintage photographs tell that saga, which is as fascinating as that of the Puebloans.

Download or read book International Perspectives on Cultural Parks written by National Park Service and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from International Perspectives on Cultural Parks: Proceedings of the First World Conference, Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado, 1984 This Conference is dedicated to the late Gustaf Erik von Nordenskiold, a young Swedish geologist from a family prom inent in the scientific, political, and academic life of Sweden and Finland. The young von Nordenskiold made the first con scious attempt to systematically excavate and record the ar cheology of the Mesa Verde plateau. His monumental work, The Cliff Dwellers of Mesa Verde, was published in 1893. The scientific merit of this work is acknowledged by leading southwestern archeologists who respect the methodology that this man of science brought to archeology. The work of von Nordenskiold created an interest in the preservation of the Mesa Verde, which led to public support for the creation of the park by an Act of Congress on June 29, 1906. It is most fitting, though a coincidence, that the act creating Mesa Verde National Park was on von Nordenskiold's birthday, but regrettable that he did not live to see the result of his pioneering work in southwestern archeology. He passed away at the young age of 27 in 1895. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
