Montezuma Castle

Montezuma Castle : The best preserved cliff dwellings in the United States. Built by the Sinagua Indian Culture over 600 years ago. Situated above the Verde River. This cliff dwelling has  Five-storys and 20-rooms. This site attracts over 1 Million visiters every year. And was proclaimed a National Park in 1906.

The Anasazi ruin of Montezuma Castle National Monument is well worth a visit. The ruin is located in a recess half way up a cliff, so you can only view it from below. From the Visitor Centre there is a short trail with signs explaining details of what is known about the people who built the cliff dwelling.

You have noticed that everything an Indian does in a circle, and that is because the Power of the World always works in circles, and everything and everything tries to be round. In the old days all our power came to us from the sacred hoop of the nation and so long as the hoop was unbroken the people flourished. The flowering tree was the living center of the hoop, and the circle of the four quarters nourished it. The east gave peace and light, the south gave warmth, the west gave rain and the north with its cold and mighty wind gave strength and endurance. This knowledge came to us from the outer world with our religion. Everything the power of the world does is done in a circle. The sky is round and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball and so are all the stars. The wind, in its greatest power, whirls. Birds make their nests in circles, for theirs is the same religion as ours. The sun comes forth and goes down again in a circle. The moon does the same and both are round. Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves. Our teepees were round like the nests of birds, and these were always set in a circle, the nation's hoop, a nest of many nests, where the Great Spirit meant for us to hatch our children.     Anasazi Black Elk
