Why might the anasazi have built the type of buildings they did?

The modern Pueblo people are the direct descendants of the so-called Anasazi. There is no break in the tradition. They are often now called the Ancestral Pueblo peoples. All the cultural artifacts, not just the houses, that we can find, are in an unbroken line. They also all have stories, that are assumed to be true, of which clans came form which now abandoned "Anansazi" ruins. And some Pueblos people still go and do rituals in those places. The changes in location probably have to do with prolonged drought and changes in timing of rainfall that happened around 1250-1300. These weather changes also appear to have caused cultural upheaval. The also may have been problems with down-cutting of streams and lowering of water tables do to cutting too many trees. The people moved to areas with more reliable water sources for farming and brought the building technology with them.


Why is the Anasazi tribe named Anasazi?

The word Anasazi comes from the Navajo name for the ancestors of the Modern Pueblo peoples. The word in Navajo is: Anaasází, it means ancestors of our enemies. Anaai' means enemy or stranger. For example the "anaaji" is the Navajo ceremony for too much contact with people or things outside the four sacred mountains or for those coming bakc from war. It is often called the "enemy way ceremony". The name for the pre Pueblo peoples was picked up by Americans from the Navajo when they first came to the 4 corners area and started doing archeology inn the late 1800's.As it says below some Pueblo groups do not now like the term. As they were their direct ancesors we should respect that. It is not however like the "n" word. No one on the Hopi rez or Zuni or other places really thinks or feels that.Actually, no one knows. People believe that the Anasazibelieved in gods and spirits. Most dwellers of the valley and around the 4- corners region and countryside. Also, please if you do read this, don't call the Anasazi peoples the Anasazi. Recent studies show that they should formerly be called the Pre-Pueblean peoples. Anasazi is actually more of a slang term for these peoples. Anasazi is to Pre-Peublean Peoples as the "N" word is to Peoples of African descent (IE. Africans, African-Americans). Thank you so much. The Pre-Puebleans peoples were secretive and most of their artifacts were destroyed by White men such as Spanish Conquistadors and such.


Where did the anasazi built?

Originally, the Anasazi settled in what is now known as the four corners area - southeast Utah, southwest Colorado, Northwest New Mexico, and northeast Arizona with a few far-flung settlements farther to the south. After living there for generations, they abandoned the area, leaving numerous small settlements plus larger sites at Mesa Verde in Colorado and Bandelier and Chaco Canyon in New Mexico. Why they left is a mystery, although archaeologists generally favor theories of climate change, encroachment of hostiles, and/or a new religious movement. As to where they settled after that, it's generally believed they moved south and east toward the Rio Grande Valley in New Mexico, although there may be other theories. Most people believe the Anasazi are the ancestors of the modern day Pueblo Indians, from the Hopi in northeast Arizona and Zuni in northwest New Mexico to the Taos in northeast New Mexico and south to the Isleta in central New Mexico. There are more than twenty Pueblo tribes in the area.
