The Anasazi tribe, also known as the Ancestral Pueblo culture, was a prehistoric culture of the Southwest United States. The religion of the Anasazi people was based on their belief of Earth, not only the source of their food and protection, but also as a sacred place connecting them to a Great Spirit. The airy settlement that we explored had been built by the Anasazi, a civilization that arose as early as 1500 B.C.
