Anasazi State Park Museum is a state park and museum in Southern Utah, United States, featuring the ruins of an ancient Anasazi village referred to as the Coombs Village Site.
Established as a Utah state park in 1960, the 6-acre, Anasazi State Park Museum is open year-round, and features a visitor center, a museum with examples of Anasazi pottery and other artifacts, a museum store, an auditorium, and picnic areas. There is no camping. It is located in Boulder, Utah, at the edge of 11,000-foot-tall Boulder Mountain.
The park is focused around the reconstructed ruins of an ancient Anasazi village, referred to as the Coombs Village Site, which is located directly behind the museum.

Anasazi Artifacts
This is a scan of a case of artifacts at the Anasazi Heritage center in Colorado. The video is a movie showing the sequence of images taken to produce this 3D model. The model has some places with distortion due to the lack of enough photos being taken of that region. This was test to see if I could shoot a whole case of subjects and get a good rendition. The video shows me that it is certainly possible. The completed model could be used to create display for an online digital museum.

Anasazi, Ancient Native American Cultures - What Happened to the Anasazi of Mesa Verde and Chaco Canyon?
There is a prevalent belief that the prehistoric Native American culture referred to as the Anasazi mysteriously disappeared from the southwestern United States. Here are the facts.
Who were the Anasazi? Across the deserts and mesas of the region known as the Four Corners, where Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah meet, backcountry hikers and motoring tourists can easily spot reminders of an ancient people. From the towering stone structures at Chaco Culture National Historical Park to Cliff Dwellings at Mesa Verde National Park to the ubiquitous scatters of broken pottery and stone tools, these remains tell the story of a culture that spread out across the arid Southwest during ancient times. The Anasazi are believed to have lived in the region from about AD 1 through AD 1300, though the exact beginning of the culture is difficult to determine because there is no particular defining event.
In their everyday lives, they created black-on-white pottery styles that distinguish sub-regions within the culture. They traded with neighboring cultures, including those to the south in Central America. And they built ceremonial structures called kivas, which were used for religious or communal purposes.
Spanish conquistadors exploring the Southwest noted the abandoned Cliff Dwellings and ruined plazas, and archaeologists today still try to understand what might have caused the Anasazi to move from their homes and villages throughout the region.
Over time, researchers have posed a number of theories, including the idea that the Anasazi were driven from their villages by hostile nomads, such as those from the Apache or Ute tribes. Others believe that the Anasazi fought among themselves, causing a drastic reduction in their populations, and a few extra-terrestrial minded theorists suggested that the Anasazi civilization was destroyed by aliens.
Today the prevalent hypothesis among scientists is that a long-term drought affected the area, destroying agricultural fields and forcing people to abandon their largest villages. Scientists and archaeologists have worked together to reconstruct the region's climate data and compare it with material that has been excavated. Based on their findings, many agree that some combination of environmental and cultural factors caused the dispersal of the Anasazi from the large-scale ruins seen throughout the landscape today.
Although many writers of both fiction and nonfiction, romanticize the Anasazi as a people who mysteriously disappeared from the region, they did not actually disappear. Those living in large ancient villages and cultural centers did indeed disperse, but the people themselves did not simply disappear. Today, descendants of the Anasazi can be found living throughout New Mexico and Arizona. The Hopi tribe in Northern Arizona, as well as those living in approximately 20 Pueblos in New Mexico, are the modern-day descendants of the Anasazi. The Pueblos in New Mexico whose modern inhabitants consider the Anasazi their ancestors include: Acoma, Cochiti, Isleta, Jemez, Laguna, Nambe,Picuris, Pojoaque, San Felipe, San Ildefonso, Ohkay Owingeh (formerly referred to as San Juan), Sandia, Santa Ana, Santa Clara, Santo Domingo, Taos, Tesuque, Zia, and Zuni.
The term Anasazi is actually a misleading moniker, as it is a Navajo word meaning “enemy ancestors”, which is obviously offensive to the Anasazi descendants. Today, Native Americans and archaeologists prefer to use “pre- Puebloan” to refer to the ancient inhabitants of the Four Corners.

Anasazi
The anasazi
There homes were made out of stones, clay, mud, and adobe brick. There homes had many floors and levels. At the bottom level there is no door but there is a latter to climb up to get in from the top.
As a part of there religion they had underground circular rooms called kivas for ceremonies.
What they ate was corn, beans, and squash and hunted deer, rabbits and prairie dogs. They would grind their food in a mestate, which is a big stone. Then they had corn flour or corn meal to cook with.
They were farmers that grew corn, beans, and squash. They had special places to keep corn safe. They saved their food in storage with lids.
Pots and cooking utensils for Anasazi were clay pots, sticks and stones. They made pots with clay. They made hand coil pots from clay and mud they collected. They made them pretty with designs on them. They were really good basket makers. They made baskets and bags from fibers.
Their clothes was woven by yucca fibers, turkey feathers, and bunny fur. As time went by they made clothes with cotton.
For their art they had pictographs painted designs on the walls of rock in their caves and homes. A famous god of the Anasazi is called Kokopelli. He is a hunch back flute player. He is painted often in their art and carvings.
They carved petropglyph pictures in rocks. One famous rock is called the newspaper, because it looks like so much information on one rock, like a newspaper.
They left their cliff homes. They left all their things like they were going to come back. But no one knows where they went. They have descendants in the Pueblo people today. I hope you learned lots form this report.
Goodbye!
