Detailed Description

Doorways into the dwellings at Far View Ruins. The "McElmo" masonry construction styles at Mesa Verde are very similar to the masonry at Chaco Canyon, New Mexico. This suggests a strong cultural connection between the two largest regional population centers of the Ancestral Puebloan culture (NPS, 1996).
