This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prehistoric Cliff Dwellers and Pueblos That mysterious people called the cliff-dwellers, have been for many years the objects of much curiosity, and are still regarded with great interest. Various parties have entered the region where their works and relics were discov ered; some of whom have written interesting accounts of their own explorations, and two or three have published books upon the subject. As a result, the mystery surrounding them, has been to some degree dispelled; so that they can no longer be regarded as so obscure and strange a people, as they once were. The most of the parties who have entered the field have come to the conclusion, that they were the same pe0p1e as those who are known under the name of the Pueblos, and that they practiced a very similar architecture; the main difference between them, consisting in the fact, that they were situated upon the borders of the Pueblo territory and were here subject to the attacks of the Wild Tribes, which have so long infested the region. The author of this book, who is the editor of the American Antiquarian, has taken this as his clew, and so has used a double title. He has given descriptions, not merely of the cliff - dwellings and their local surroundings and history, but of their distribution and varied relations. His position is, that the cliff-dwellings were permanent abodes, but were built at different periods; some of them at a very ancient date; others at a period which was not very long before the discovery of America.

That they belong to the community of the Cave-dwellers, and serve as their fortresses, councilchambers and places of worship, would seem to be natural and reasonable inferences. Being on the border of a low mesa country, the strong outside walls were, doubtless, found necessary to prevent incursions from that direction; while the little community, by means of ladders, was free to pass from dwelling to fortress without danger of molestation. (See fig. 7 ) A large group situated on this stream, about 10 miles above its mouth, was subsequently examined. In one place in particular, a picturesque out-standing promontory was full of dwellings, literally honey-combed by the earth-burrowing race; and as one from below views the ragged window-pierced crags, he is unconsciously led to wonder if they are not the ruins ofsome ancient castle, behind whose mouldering walls are hidden the dead secrets of a long-forgotten people. Hut a nearer a such fancies, for the windows prove to be only the doorways ipproach quickly dispels doorways to shallow and irregular apartments, hardly sufficiently commodious for a race of pigmies. Neither the outer openings or the apertures are large enough to allow a person of large stature to pass, and one is led to suspect that these nests were not the dwellings proper of these people, but occasional resorts for women and children, and that the somewhat extensive ruins below were their ordinary dwelling places. On the brink of a promontory above stands the ruins of a tower, still twelve feet high, and similar, in most respects, to those already described. These ruined towers are very numerous.' ANCIENT PUEBLO AND RUINED TOWERS ON THE Mc ELMO Mr. Holmes also discovered a group of ruins which mark...
