Asked by Wiki User

The Anasazi people built with stone and used a mix of clay,sand and mud to make mortar and plaster. They used logs for roof beams. Then split poles, bark and mud plaster on top. Buildings that were more than one story had double walls with rock rubble fill between them.

The tools they used were axes to cut trees and brush. Tools to work the stone a little and tools to spread plaster, although hand prints are often seen.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Pueblo Indian tribe had a home called a pueblo! Pueblo has three meanings which are town, home, and the name of a tribe. It was made out of adobe bricks which are mud bricks. They made their appearence look like a modern day apartment building. They made windows at the top of them but they never made doors. They wanted to be safe from their enemies. They used long ladders to reach the windows and they climbed into the pueblo. They then pulled the ladders inside of the pueblo so the enemies couldn't climb into the pueblo and attack.

Type of underground chamber used by pueblo people?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It is a ceremonial chamber that can be easily identified as the only ROUND chambers in a Pueblo- they are called Kivas. While they are always entered from the top via a ladder, they are not always underground. They can be built on upper levels of the Pueblo, but they always take the form of a circular pit entered thru a hole in the roof.

Why did the Spanish program to convert the Pueblo to Christianity fail in 1680?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Numerous causes existed:

  1. With the Spaniards gone the Pueblos lost their reason for unifying in the first place.
  2. They picked up their old ways and began their old rivalries.
  3. Not all of the Pueblos were happy that the Spaniards were gone.
  4. The Navajo, Apache and Comanche who for years had been kept at bay by the Spaniards increased their attacks on the Pueblos.
  5. Some had become genuine Christians under Spanish rule and had close family ties with the Spanish colonists.

How were the pueblo like their ancestors the hohokam and anasazi?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Pueblo Indians are not thought to be related to the Hohokam just the Anasazi, Sinagua and Mogollon. The modern Pueblo dry land farm like the Anasazi especially in the western Pueblos. They grow the same crops but added ones that were brought by the Spanish like peaches and melons. In the eastern Pueblos they irrigated their farms which is similar to the Hohokam but not the same and not not thought to be related. They have the same housing patterns, the same pottery styles, the same weaving of cotton. The kachina cult is thought to have started among the Anasazi at the end of their time and continues among the Pueblo.
