Arizona Pueblo

This is what our weather is like out here in Arizona this time of the year, August 2008. We get lots of sun up to 125 degrees. We also get sudden rain clouds and flash monsoon storms. The storms are heavy and torential and usually usually last from a few hours to a day or so. Then we have more sunshine.

This is a pueblo dwelling just above Oatman, Arizona. It is about 15 miles from where we live. I don’t think there are any people living there today. I will learn more as we do more exploring of our area. I believe it is abandoned now and falling apart.

Pueblos are traditional communities of Native Americans in the southwestern United States of America. The communities are recognized worldwide for their adobe buildings, which are sometimes called “pueblos”. Some pueblos only have a few of these buildings still standing.

Of the federally recognized Native American communities in the Southwest, those designated by the King of Spain as Pueblos at the time treaties ceded Spanish territory to the United States are now legally recognized by the Bureau of Indian Affairs as Pueblos. Some of the Pueblos also came into the United States by treaty with Mexico, which briefly gained jurisdiction over territory in the Southwest ceded by Spain. There are 21 federally recognized Pueblos that are home to Pueblo people. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
