The Mystery of Chaco Canyon
Unveils the Astronomical Brilliance of an Ancient Culture in the American Southwest
Chaco Canyon, located in northwest New Mexico, is perhaps the only site in the world constructed in an elaborate pattern that mirrors the yearly cycle of the sun and the 19-year cycle of the moon.
