The Bükkalja region is awash with volcanic rhyolite tuff, and locals have made use of the porous rock for centuries. Besides wine cellars, people have carved out caves for livestock, food storage and of course as homes. At one point 30% of Noszvaj’s population lived in these types of residences. 40 cave homes were still inhabited as late as 1970.

Every time I go past these old houses I have to shoot them because there is always something different going on with that mountain behind them!

 

The Clapboard structure was one of ten houses that were originally built in Eureka, Colorado, but when the Sunnyside Mine went bankrupt in 1948, the Idarado Mining Company purchased the homes and moved them to the Red Mountain location. The dwellings were remodeled and used to house Idarado Mine employees. From 1948-1978, a total of twelve families lived in the homes until the mining ran out. When the homes were moved not all of the Million Dollar Highway was paved.

The medieval castle of Windstein was built on a narrow rock spur. As there was only a little space for living, inhabitants carved a part of their dwellings into red sandstone. Today (it was in 2012), everything is in disrepair, but the place is open for tourist visits.

I've read about cave dwelling but seeing it, touching it, climbing into the cave, it was a wonderful experience.

 

The Ancestral Pueblo people lived here in Bandelier National Monument from approximately 1150 CE to 1550 CE. They built homes carved from the volcanic tuff. The Monument is 50 square miles (130 km2) of the Pajarito Plateau, on the slopes of the Jemez Volcanic field in the Jemez Mountains.

 

Many thanks to all those who view, fav or comment my pictures. I very much appreciate it.

Montezuma Castle National Monument

Camp Verde, Arizona, USA

Built approximately between 1100 and 1425 AD by Sinagua people, indigenous people of the Southwestern United States of pre-Columbian culture.

Constructed with chunks of limestone, mud and clay.

It's 90 feet (27m) up a limestone cliff with almost 4,000 square feet (370m) floor space. (Wikipedia)

  

This is the Long House dwelling.It was built under the rim of the Wetherill Mesa.

The Fairbairn House (1861) in Wakefield, Québec, Canada.

 

One of Wakefield's oldest dwellings, the Fairbairn house was the home of Scottish settler William Fairbairn who in 1838 erected a sturdy stone grist mill beside waterfalls on the La Pêche River just as it begins its descent to join the Gatineau River.

BANDELIER NATIONAL MONUMENT NEW MEXICO

Lower cliff wall dwellings were constructed by expanding the natural voids in the soft volcanic tuff walls of the canyon. The horizontal holes in the wall were used for anchoring both roof and floor timber support beams. Carved petroglyphs are visible in the top center of the image.

Late Fall beaches here are usually gray and deserted. It is an excellent time for b&w photography to capture the mood. After all, autumn's color bursts are gone.

Several of the excavated soft volcanic tuff wall dwellings can be viewed by the public using pine ladders similar to those constructed by the Ancestral Pueblo people. (Lacking metal screws!)

People who sleep walk needed to be wary-i've never heard archeologists suggest the Anastazi succumbed to falling deaths, but I suppose they've looked at the bottom of the cliff to see if there were piles of bones.

 

You need to have a local guide to access the valley floor and half a day or more to do it.

Located in Mesa Verde National Park Colorado this is the largest of the Anasazi Dwellings .Cliff Palace is the largest cliff dwelling at Mesa Verde National Park. It has 150 rooms, plus an additional 75 open areas. Twenty-one of the rooms are kivas, and 25 to 30 rooms have residential features. The number of Ancestral Puebloans living in Cliff Palace at any one time was 100 to 120.

It is seen with a tour guide from the park and quite informative at the incredible price of only three dollars!!

In the Winter of 1888, ranchers Richard Wetherill and Charlie Mason searched the canyons for stray cattle, they unexpectedly came upon Cliff Palace. The next year, the Wetherill brothers and Mason explored an additional 182 cliff dwellings.On June 29, 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt established Mesa Verde National Park to "preserve the works of man," the first national park of its kind.What incredible fore site this man had saving this for one and all to further enjoy!An absolute "must see"to anyone who loves history and nature!!!

The Hooper-Lee-Nichols House on Brattle Street in Cambridge. Seen on our walk to the Mt. Auburn Cemetery from Harvard Square. (Linda hated its downward-angled shutters.)

 

Now home to the Cambridge Historical Society.

The original dwelling was constructed ca. 1685. It has been modified and enlarged many times over the last 300 years and today is considered a Georgian style building.

 

During the 18th century, the owners "modernized" the house to hide its original 17th century appearance. Remarkably, the house retained many of its 18th century features throughout the 19th century, when many early houses were "Victorianized." Then, in the early 20th century, the owners wished to showcase its earlier features, and reversed earlier alterations, returning a portion of the house to an assumed 17th century appearance.

 

The complexity and creativity of this process over three centuries gives the Hooper-Lee-Nichols house its lasting significance.

This photograph shows part of the inner courtyard at Ightham Mote in Kent. The property is a medieval manor house dating from the mid 14th century although the date on the rainwater hopper shows this has been added during Victorian times!

This little dwelling is often overlooked making your way to the visitor center at Chaco Culture National Historical Park. It likely dates to the period around 1150-1200.

 

Chaco Canyon was one of the primes objectives of my New Mexico trip.
