Tusayan Pueblo Ruins And Split Twig Figurines Tell Story Of People Who Once Inhabited The Grand Canyon
A. Sutherland - AncientPages.com - People have continuously occupied the Grand Canyon for at least the past 4,000 years, and they have lived in the region for the past 12,000 years. As many as 4,800 archaeological sites have already been documented, but many more remain to be cataloged.
The Tusayan Ruins (also known as ‘Tusayan Pueblo’) are the remains of a small 12th-century Ancestral Puebloan village site located within Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona. It is one of the best-documented archaeological sites of the region.
Some of the most fascinating artifacts found here in the Grand Canyon are split-twig figurines.
