Discovering Hidden Ruins & Ancient Mysteries (Google Earth)
After calling off our hike when we ran out of time, Tom & I are back in this remote canyon in the desert Southwest. The ancient people were smart when it came to locating their desert dwellings. But they had to be. Google Earth unfortunately doesn't work in this area for looking into caves and alcoves. So we are backpacking to find this elusive ancient ruin.
Thank you for joining us on another ancient journey. And thank you for subscribing and helping us to find our next mystery.

Tom and I are back in the desert Southwest. This time we are focusing on an area of interest with several potential historical sites. An obscure blog had rumors of a well preserved rock art panel with hundreds of amazing pictographs.

    Neither of you sound like you are from here... So thanks for visiting... Note: The burned stump with the limbs sawn off, is not an "indian trail marker" .. don't spread rumors like that. This is not at all like it is back east, where there are markers ... When the cliff dwellers lived in these areas, MOST of their intentions were to be very inconspicuous because of the Ana' Sa a' Zi raiders/slavers/cannibals ... The very reason they built and survived in such harsh areas, was because of the Ana' Sa a' Zi people, who "came from the south" ...(according to the Dine' "The People" aka Navajo - or "Knife wielders/ Those who kill with knives) ... The invaders were eventually completely wiped out to the last child, according to Dine' verbal history... The cliff dwellers had abandoned their dwellings and sought refuge in joining the Dine' ... You will see evidence of torn down structures and smashed pottery around them ... these are most likely what are known as "Anasazi" ... However, there is a whole other fantasy land, story book, fairy tale story told about the "Anasazi" that is derived from contemporary interpretations of college qualified tomb raiders, that is entirely bogus. The entire evidence of these structures, tribal histories and medicine culture is not as they depict. They are not "ancestral pueblo" , which is the new "shop terminology" amongst the Anglo tomb raiders with sheep skins on the wall and a pipe and slippers in their easy chairs.

  • @coeneschamaun1735

    That is an agave plant I believe, it is a succulent similar to a yucca. Arroyos are intermittent waterways. They are often just a dry sandy streambed, but if it rains upstream, even miles away, the water will flow. And it is often a Flash Flood, and can be fast moving water, and lots of it. It's because in the Southwest, the soil is somewhat of a hardpan, and water doesn't soak in, it runs off. Arroyos can be dangerous, I suggest you familiarize yourself with what they are (TH-cam). In addition, since arroyos are runoff watercourses, if you find any artifacts, ie pottery sherds, lithic flakes, etc, keep exploring upstream. These arroyos will lead you to ruins.

    I would guess there has been some preventative/restorative work done, in the area with the center supports. It's just my feeling, nothing really to support that, except that I would think roof would've collapsed by now.

    6:47. That is lichen. It is fairly unique as it a symbiosis of algae and fungi. Generally, it is VERY slow growing, some species only grow a few millimetres a year. So, some lichen are hundreds of years old. As well, they are found on every continent on planet. It's worth a Google if you want to learn more.

    It is a FELONY to pocket any artifacts. You two creeps could care less about protecting our ancient history. You have absolutely no respect! Why the heck are you wearing your backpacks while trampling our precious ruins? Are you a couple of narcissists who think they are important and above the law? Do you think you are so important that you have no respect for the rules that you are entrusted to follow, because you are different? Why not just stay in your RV and head on over to somewhere where you will fit right in, like Slab City? They are your type of people. You should be nowhere near our ancient ruins. You are dangerous, clumsy careless, and reckless.

    Tom and I are back in the desert Southwest. This time we are focusing on an area of interest with several potential historical sites. An obscure blog had rumors of a well preserved rock art panel with hundreds of amazing pictographs. We are headed that direction first, but there is also rumored to be a hard to get to Sinagua Cliff Dwelling that we plan to explore as well, but we ran into a few challenges along the way, which happens on every journey. Finding these ancient sites is not always easy. Tom again scoured Google Earth looking for any indication of ruins in the area. Unfortunately, the satellite images don't show cliff dwellings very well. So Tom flew the drone in for a closer look. We believe the cliff dwelling are situated in an alcove on this mountain, but first we are going to head toward this mountain because we think the rock art wall is located near the base of it,.so let's get going on another ancient journey! Thank you for subscribing so you catch all of our journeys! In the spring, the desert bursts with new life especially after a rainstorm. We just love all of the flowers that bloom in this area. Such amazing, detailed and fragile beauty, it's surprising that these plants flourish in such a harsh climate. Even though we ran out of time trying to find the cliff dwellings today, we came back on another day and found this elusive but amazing cliff dwelling, thank you for subscribing so you catch that video coming out soon!
