What Was the Interaction Between Pueblo Indians and Their Environment?
Crow Canyon Archaeological Center is teaming up with Mesa Verde National Park as part of the Centers ongoing research into the long-term (A.D. 6001300) interaction between Pueblo Indians and their environment. The Mesa Verde Village Assessment Project (MVVAP) builds on an earlier study called the Village Ecodynamics Project (VEP), a multidisciplinary and multi-institutional effort that examined Pueblo Indian settlement patterns on the Great Sage Plain, a vast expanse of rolling uplands that for 25 years has been the focus of Crow Canyons research in the Four Corners area.
