Climbing the heights of a mesa green with trees in 550 AD, hunter-gatherers found a plateau rich in water, soil, and wood. Their discovery led to the first permanent human occupation of the place that became a thriving village. By 1300 AD, however, the Ancestral Puebloans mysteriously abandoned their land , leaving behind an exceptional architectural and cultural heritage. Ancient Civilizations of the Southwest celebrates that legacy and its preservation. Sales of the calendar benefit Mesa Verde Museum Association, which supports the work of Mesa Verde National Park.
