Ancient Puebloans, also known as Ancestral Puebloans, settled primarily in the Four Corners region of the United States, which includes parts of present-day Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah. They built complex communities, often in cliff dwellings and pueblos, taking advantage of the natural landscape and resources. Their settlements were typically located near water sources, such as rivers and streams, to support agriculture and daily life.
