Chetro Ketl, A Photo Gallery
In the foreground is one of the two great kivas in the Chettro Ketl plaza. The kiva is 60 feet in diameter. The north side suite of rooms is visible in the background. Niches are features in some great kivas. The rectangular masonry forms in the floor area may have served as floor drums. The circular forms were bases for the roof support posts. The Chettro Ketl room count is estimated at about 500, and about 5,000 trees were used. Chettro Ketl is near Pueblo Bonito, due east up canyon half a kilometer. |
