Visit the Anasazi sites: Anasazi Virtual Field Trip - Do you think they had a "civilization?"
As you go on your field trip, try answer the questions below:
The Anasazi – “The Ancient Ones” or “Those Who Came Before”
As you take your virtual tour, take time to examine the pictures you are viewing. Think about how long ago this was. Think about what it was like to live there.
- Identify by name the two of the “cities” you are viewing.
- Why do you think "Newspaper Rock" is historically special?
- The last time we said "Kiva" was during the Money and Banking unit in economics class. Here it is again, but what is it here?
- The Anasazi were creative in their attempts at “protection.” They used their environment in a way that benefited them - See if you can identify two ways the Anasazi protected themselves from enemies and environment?
- Enemies
- Environment
- Tell the truth, you were scared by the "ghost figure" weren't you? What do you think its purpose was?
- According to the tour site, what happened to the Anasazi?
- What did the "Cliff Dwellers" leave behind as evidence that really puts a human face/print to these old ruins? (list some!)
