The Chaco are an ancient indigenous people of the American southwest, located near the Navajo Nation. These desert people constructed their great houses, or pueblos, from sandstone around 1K AD. The town served as a central hub of the region, but was abandoned sometime around 1300, probably due to climate change.
The park is located amongst New Mexico’s canyons and mesas, notably Fajada Butte, which can be viewed near the park’s south entrance, towering 400 feet high above the canyon. The Sun Dagger is an ancient artifact that may have been used to track the date of the summer solstice, suggesting that the Chaco people practiced archaeo astronomy with their structures.
