The Anasazi's (ie. Ancestral Pueblo) "ancient enemies" I believe were the Navajo/Apache (both Athabascan language groups from the northwest U.S. area) who came into the Southwest about 700 years ago. This is when the Anasazi began breaking up their corn harvest into small pieces and hiding it in remote granaries and started living in defensive cliff dwellings. Why else would they do this?
What a great find. So fascinating to see how people lived in the past. It must have been terrifying to be up there in a lightning storm. One big strike on all of that wet rock would fry anyone covered by thatch roof or not!
Good video, thanks for posting! I love the high desert of Arizona and Utah. These folks had excellent 360° views from that location. There must have been a good water source nearby.
Navaho tradition holds that long ago, well before Euro contact, the Navaho migrated into the area and drove out the Anasazi, who moved south and became the Pueblo communities. Traditional Anasazi grew corn, beans and squash in the fertile valleys and lived in defensive habitations, up in the heights. These ruins look to be very old, hard to tell if families lived there on a permanent basis.
@@polemeros well probably because it was only a southwestern native American problem in which battles were held long ago to settle conflicts. Unless if the Navajo traveled outside their territory, it relatively stayed in the southwest.
@@polemeros Are you seriously equating the movement of a people group for survival, to the personal business venture of one man that wiped out almost an entire race?
@@polemeros there are individuals upset with the Navajo, which is why there are land disputes between the Hopi and Navajo, the original reservation created by treaty in 1868 was a fraction of what the Navajo reservation is now; within the Navajo reservation are numerous ancestral Puebloan sites, those areas are not forgotten. The Athabaskan peoples moved into the southwest around the 1400’s. Maybe even just a little bit earlier by the archaeological studies and findings.
I could be wrong but I think Anasazi ruins are sacred to the tribes. Weren't there signs instructing people to not enter the ruins? If the site is on reservation land people can be fined.
To my knowledge, neither the Navajo or Apache built any stone buildings. Navajo built Hogans made of mud/sticks/logs. the Pueblo Indians, especially Hopi, are the true blood lines to Anasazi. as they continued to build stone houses.
I hope you were not on Indian Land without permission. Practically everything is sacred to someone. Good video. You need to stand closer to your microphone.
Americans are the Whites. Before we came, the land did not have this name. We named it America. The Indians were not Americans but were conquered by the Americans.
Ya the Ana:isazi's came from the south, and their only enemy were the Giants who enslaved them, and the evil sky being that appeared from spiral portals. It's also not Anasazi, it's Ahnasoza. Women and children fled to the cliffs and mountains when the being appeared. So much I could tell you, but so much I can't. It's sacred knowledge that every time it's told. It is twisted by mainstream historians and archaeologists. No one drove them out of the area, nor did they mysteriously disappear. Official story told to outsiders, is they destroyed themselves, but that's not exactly what happened. The (Dineh Navajo) know exactly what happened with them. Mayan teeth with inlaid turquoise and other Mayan artifacts were unearthed at Chaco. Macaw feathers being another. They adopted some of the Mayans rituals, if not Mayan themselves, but they mocked the gods, subsitted from slaves they took to do all their work, but things fell apart for them about the exact same time the Mayans were performing mass sacrifices to please their gods as things fell apart for them as well. To no avail. I've got so much more, but no time RN. The Book "On the Path of the Immortals" by Dr. Thomas Horn has some priveledged information in it. Came directly from Dr. Don Moze Jr. 3rd generation storyteller for the Dineh. Wally Brown is the Historian for the Dineh and is here on YT with "Navajotraditionalteachings.com", not sure of the name of the YT channel. The YT channel kinda sanitizes it tho b/c it's going worldwide and the actual truth, not the truth the Parks Depts. wants and only allows. They have a narrative and agenda. The Dineh do not. Here's Wally Brown explaining a bit about the Anasaza if you want more info. remember, some is sanitized. YOu prob. will never hear about the spiral portal this evil being appeared from, in the form of a man, skin of a reptile and a head with two horns wrapped around to look like a halo. That being is considered to be what is called a Nephilim. th-cam.com/video/Xlrj1GNi6FA/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the post rather enjoyed it. Have a good life.
Really awesome video.
Fascinating! Very complex structure! Thank you!

Great spot. There’s actually a small cave around the base under a large boulder. Possibly a “cellar” if you will. Love this area.
These ruins are all over the SW.

I wanted to hear more about the bike ride 😊. Cool video
Very cool!

The Navajo are from Alaska.
So the Navajo did what Columbus did, just 100 years earlier. How come nobody is yelling at the Navajo? (Rhetorical question, of course. We know why.)

Thank you very much
Thanks
Cool place. When did you come back to the US?
We spent the winter in Baja Sur, Mexico, and came back in mid-June to spend most of the summer in the southwest.
Cool spot

Great video but your camera moves could be a little slower let it drink in the details of all the rock formations that place is utterly amazing!
where is this?
Excellent video 👍👍
Thanks for sharing preciate it wish I was there to roll up in a sleeping bag by my lonesome
Cool.
A natural signal tower. the fire marks were behind you

This entire SW area must have been a murderous place to live. The people lived in defensive forts and probably in fear of their lives 24/7.
3:34 . What did he call her?.?.?
👍
The time is coming people will have to do this again to survive.
It is already here in democrat cities.

the REAL Americans made this

@@polemeros lmfao 🤣
@@polemeros Indians live in INDIA.
@@humanbeingfromearth Tell that to The American Indian Movement, AIM. Apparently they missed your memo.
@polemeros regardless of name, was same place
