Chaco Canyon National Historical Park is located in the southwestern United States in the state of New Mexico. The park features the ruins of great houses, preserved rock painting and petroglyphs and other artifacts of native peoples who once inhabited the area.
Chaco Canyon was largely deserted by the Anasazi people around the late 12th century, with significant abandonment occurring by the late 1200s. Factors contributing to this decline included prolonged drought, resource depletion, and social changes. By the early 1300s, the area was largely uninhabited.
The large cultural group that resided in Chaco Canyon was the Ancestral Puebloans, also known as the Anasazi. They flourished in the region from around AD 900 to 1150, developing a complex society characterized by impressive stone architecture, extensive trade networks, and astronomical alignments in their construction. Chaco Canyon served as a major center for commerce, politics, and spirituality during this period. Their influence extended throughout the southwestern United States, leaving a lasting legacy in Native American culture.
