Anyone who loves history, archaeology or just has an adventurous spirit will love this National monument! The ancient Sinagua Indians lived Between 600 A.D to 1425 A.D. These people were very good in agriculture and very resourceful and culturally diverse. They inhabited the Arizona forests, canyons, grasslands and deserts of Central and Northern Arizona.
The word Sinagua is Spanish for “without water,” referring to the Sierra Sin Agua mountains near Flaggstaff.
Tuzigoot is an Apache phrase that’s been translated to “Crooked waters” referring to the nearby Pecks lake. It has a total of 97 ground level rooms.
Archaeologists found a lot of pottery, even the bones of the macaws, parrots!
It is believed the Sinagua people did trading as far south as Mexico and that’s were they got the Macaws 🦜!
