EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing ruins of Tuonyi, an ancient Puebloan village nestled in Frijoles Canyon, within the breathtaking Bandelier National Monument in New Mexico. The digital photograph beautifully captures the essence of this historic site. Dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries, these prehistoric dwellings offer a glimpse into the rich Native American history of the Southwest. Constructed with remarkable masonry skills, these cliff dwellings were built using volcanic tuff found in the Jemez Mountains. The image portrays a vintage American town frozen in time, evoking a sense of wonder and curiosity about its past inhabitants. The intricate architecture and strategic location on top of cliffs add to their mystique. Bandelier National Monument is not just an archaeological site but also a testament to ancestral Puebloan culture. This protected area allows visitors to explore kivas (ceremonial rooms) and immerse themselves in this unique chapter of North America's history. As we admire this photograph, we are reminded of the resilience and ingenuity displayed by indigenous peoples who called this place home for centuries. It serves as a reminder that our present-day society owes much to those who came before us
