Description
The Cliff Palace at Colorado's Mesa Verde National Park is the largest preserved cliff dwelling of its kind in the United States. The Anasazi, or "Ancient Ones" are believed to have occupied this community, and others like it, from about 1200-1300, after which it was abandoned. Archeologists speculate that a prolonged drought caused the inhabitants to move south in search of more fertile ground for farming.
