Overview

Hype:

Interactive exhibits provide visitors the opportunity to grind corn using a mano and metate, identify seeds with a microscope, make rubbings of pottery designs and listen to American Indians and archeologists discuss the importance of preserving archeological sites. There is an auditorium and gift shop. A short trail from the visitor center leads to the Coombs Site Ruins and a life-size, six room replica of part of the pueblo. The replica gives the visitor an idea of what life was like for the Anasazi between 800 and 900 years ago.
