What reading level is In the Days Before Columbus book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The rooms within are irregularly round, usually about twelve feet in diameter and just high enough to allow an adult to stand upright.
Often, a second room was excavated, either be- hind the first and reached by a hole only large enough to permit the occupant to crawl through, or else parallel to the cliff-face, in which latter case a small hole was cut through to serve for a window. In a few cases, a connected third room has been found.
These holes in the rock, for they were little else, were ...reached by long ladders. They were almost impregnable. They were dry and protected from all weathers. Small holes in the walls acted as sockets for poles on which stores were placed. In most of them, the blackened roofs and walls show that cooking was occasionally done inside these hermit-like abodes.
In character, these cavates or caves show a close relation to the pueblo of the modern Indians. In the Canon de los Frijoles, for example, the cave type is combined both with the cliff-dwelling and the pueblo type.
