Fire Temple.
Dance Plaza.
Though the large alcove below is filled with Anasazi construction, there is no evidence of any habitation. The central pit -- too large for domestic cook fires -- held layer upon layer of ashes. Fire Temple's size and carefully crafted, symmetrical features suggest community-wide ceremonial gatherings.
New Fire House.
To the right is New Fire House. Though it lacks the alcove expanse of Cliff Palace or even Oak Tree House, this split-level village makes efficient use of natural ledges. |
