Monument Valley Tribal Park contains 30,000 acres situated in the heart of the Navajo Reservation, the largest reservation in the U.S. It was set aside by the Navajo Tribal Council in 1958, establishing a preserve to maintain the old ways and to satisfy the demand of tourists who wished to visit. Here, one still finds the traditional Navajo home, or hogan. It is octagonal of circular in shape, roofed with cedar logs and faces east in order to gather light and warmth from the Sun's first light. The pick up truck parked nearby is the one concession made by most to the twentieth century.
