Ancestral Puebloans - The Cliff...

Rolf Hedger

The Ancestral Puebloans, once known as the Anasazi, were among the earliest inhabitants of the American Southwest, establishing complex societies that thrived in the arid landscapes of present-day Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah. Their origins trace back thousands of years to nomadic hunter-gatherers who gradually transitioned into settled agricultural communities. Archaeological evidence suggests that the ancestors of the Pueblo people descended from early groups who migrated into the region over 10,000 years ago, following game and adapting to the changing environment.
As these early populations settled, they developed strategies to cope with the harsh desert conditions. By around 2000 BCE, they had begun cultivating maize, a crop introduced from Mesoamerica, which allowed for more stable food sources and led to the formation of permanent villages. The adoption of agriculture marked a significant shift in their way of life, as they built storage pits for surplus grain and started domesticating turkeys for additional sustenance. Over time, these settlements expanded, and small familial clusters evolved into larger communities.
The Basketmaker period, beginning around 1200 BCE, represents a crucial stage in Ancestral Puebloan development. During this era, people lived in semi-subterranean pit houses, circular structures dug into the earth and covered with wooden frames and mud plaster. These early homes provided insulation against the region’s extreme temperatures. The Basketmakers were also known for their exceptional weaving and basketry skills, crafting intricate containers and sandals from yucca fibers and other natural materials. Pottery, which became a defining feature of Puebloan culture, gradually emerged during the later stages of this period, allowing for improved food storage and cooking techniques.
