Editorial Reviews

They were known as the Anasazi, or Ancient Ones. For hundreds of years, the Anasazi flourished in the heart of the deep sandstone canyons & towering mesas of the vast sun drenched New Mexican desert, building magnificent pueblos, some as high as five stories, encompassing over 650 rooms. Then the Ancient Ones disappeared, never to return. Why? Through stunning photography, interviews with scientists and vivid reenactments, you'll explore one of the great mysteries of archaeology. You'll discover how the villagers lived - and died. And you'll go inside the mystical chambers of the ceremonial kivas where eerie remnants of this remarkable society shed new light on an enduring riddle.

If you love history of Native Americans you will love this. The video shows the beauty of the area and the respect the Native Americans had for the Universe through the movement of the Sun and Moon.
