Tuzigoot


It's a national monument. There is an ancient pueblo here. Just like the Anazasi (which means 'Ancient Ones') of Colorado, no one knows what happened to the Native Indians who lived here. Were they wiped out by disease, war, taken by aliens? Seems we shall never know. They mysteriously disappeared around 1400 A.D. Some of them might be present day Hopi Indians. The women did like to wear hair accessories. That much we know for sure. Tuzigoot is an Apache word for crooked water. It was a very good visit.
