they must used the sun disk to know when to plant and harvest. using the trails they brought timber and put word when to plant all the way to Chinle, Az /Canyon de chelly and Mesa Verde

That final quote is just stunning.

You're right and I like your sense of humor

Very informative.

Finally a scholar deals with the water issue. Even if they didn't farm there the workers and residents had to have water. What do other researchers believe, they carried it in?

I have heard the term "seep water" used by a lecturer, meaning water the seeps thru the rocks of the cliffs from the plateau above. The seepage was collected and used for human consumption, not agriculture.

As an ancient Anasazi or as we now call ourselves the Riverlands would say you're absolutely right about everything because you were close to the land and you grew to love and know it. It's just like the the other nations and they're great ideas about our fields. We also grew grains on cliffs in watering holes. I love the fact how you patiently explained how those who call us ancient enemies now say that we are some sort of ancient puebloans yet they think cisterns our place to cover up and do smoke. Well as they say each to their own. We have always been a quiet people a well-developed people and we looked down from huge walled cities when the Spanish came. It's interesting that those who want to know assume our property who want to assume our buildings not you of course I'm talking about those who call us ancient puebloans used to call us ancient enemies.

There are no descendants left of these "ancient people". They were destroyed and destroyed themselves. Multiple tribes in the region who've lived among these people tell stories about the way these people lived. They were not "peaceful" and were in fact view as "evil". Listen to the stories from the Navajo, Hopi, and other nations who lived among these people.

Why does the videographer use long distant shots when the lecturer is pointing out intersects? Can’t see a thing. Very frustrating.

An impression based upon experience, not our cultural stories...
