What reading level is Archaeological Investigations in New Mexico Colorado And Utah With 14 Plates book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The high walls reveal rooms of rectangular shape. Situated midway in the length of the north wall (pi. 4, a, b, c) is a circular chamber like a kiva on the ground floor, with high walls about it. The recesses between the wall of the circular room and the rectangular wall enclosing it are solidly filled in with masonry, a mode of construction adopted in the great ruins of the Chaco Canyon. The kiva of Kin-a-a (pi. 5, a, b), 1 This ruin has been added to the National Monument known as the Chaco g...roup.
The name Kin-a-a seems to have been applied by the Navaho to at least two ruins. This particular Kin-a-a is possibly the ruin described by Chas. F. Lummis to which Bandelier refers.
14 SMITHSONIAN MISCELLANEOUS COLLECTIONS VOL. 68 like those of the great building of the same canyon, are built into the mass of rooms and not separated from them as in the modern pueblos, Walpi, those of the Rio Grande, and the ruin of Sun Temple on the Mesa Verde. This separation of the kiva from the house mesa is regarded by the author as a late evolution, being unknown among the cliff dwellers, and very rare in pueblo ruins possessing ancient characteristics.
