NINE MILE CANYON ROCK ART
The Anasazi arrived in about 1000 AD and built dwellings from stone and wattle/mud under overhangs. Tree ring analysis of logs from ruins showed a drought from 1276 to 1299. By 1300, all the canyons were empty. They migrated south via Chaco Canyon and became the Pueblo Indians of New Mexico.
The majority of the ruins are in the Cedar Mesa area.
