Notes
  • STORED ON SITE. mchr
  • Significance: The pueblitos are small multi-roomed masonry dwellings found in the Navajo homeland, or Dinetah Region of northwest New Mexico. Dating from the 17th century, the pueblitos are significant indicators of the complex social relations that existed among the Navajo, Pueblo, and other tribes with the Spaniards.

Ridge Top House is a large complex with as many as twelve rooms enclosed within a walled community made up of south and north plazas. In the center of the walled area is the largest boulder on which a pueblito was constructed. An exterior wall spans between several boulders along the south plaza. The lack of cutting dates of wooden elements at Ridge Top House limits the interpretation of when it was constructed; however a date of about 1720 is suggested. From Ridge Top House there is an excellent view of the surrounding Encinada Mesa and to Gobernador Knob on the eastern horizon.
