Pueblo Bonito - Great House - a photo on Flickriver

            Pueblo Bonito was the largest of the great houses nestled against the cliffs of Chaco Canyon and served as the center of Chaco culture. It was D-Shaped, enclosing a plaza with three great Kivas, and contained 600 rooms. The rooms stood four to five stories tall. It was excavated in 1896–1900 by the Hyde Exploring Expedition for the American Museum of Natural History and in 1920–1927 by Neil M. Judd for the National Geographic Society.

Part of it has been destroyed in 1941 when a section of canyon wall fell on it.
