The modern Pueblo people are the direct desecndants of the Anasazi and other peoples of the Southwest such as Mogollon and Hohokam as well. There is a direct continum over time from those older people. Pottery, buildings, farming techniques, kachina religion and everything else that make the Pueblo people distinct are from there ancestors the Anasazi or Ancstoral Pueblo peoples and they are mostly known as today.

One example of this would be the Moros y Cristianos festivals in San Juan or the running of bulls at Jemez.
