PUEBLO SHE' ("Shay")
Galisteo Basin of New Mexico
(You are looking straight down from the aircraft at the buried
town)
This buried prehistoric pueblo in the Galisteo Basin of central
New Mexico is nearly invisible except at dawn or sunset, when
the low sun angle casts deep shadows behind the mounds. At that
time, however, the roomblocks, plazas, and kivas (semi-subterranean
ceremonial chambers) of the dead pueblo seem to rise eerily from
the earth again for a short while. Use the trees and road for
scale. Maps of archaeological sites are easy to make from photos
like this.
