First you learn to make adobe bricks, then you get a workforce large enough for the dwellings you want to build, then you excavate the cave or depression until it is large enough. Cover the face with brick, add walls if needed for internal separation or support, drill smoke holes through the top of the cliff (if needed), put in water citrons, and waste disposal wells.

Did the Anasazi have enemies?

During the Pueblo III period ( 1100-1300 A.D. ) the Anasazi began to build the cliff dwellings for which they are most famous. Many buildings in these villages under the cliffs were several stories tall. These villages were in places that were easily defensible, suggesting that they had maybe acquired enemies that they did not have in earlier periods, although the reasons for these types of buildings are not really known.


Did the Anasazi tribe travel by mule?

No, there were no horses, donkeys, or mules in the Americas when the Anasazi existed as a group (named by the Navajo who were new arrivals and at war with them), The Anasazi abandoned their large cliff dwelling due to climate shift, and it is believed their modern descendants are the Hopi and other Pueblo tribes still living in the area. They never referred to themselves as "Anasazi"!
