Built between circa 1200 and 1280, this Ancestral Puebloan Cliff Dwelling is known as Spruce Tree House. The building is the third-largest cliff dwelling at Mesa Verde, containing 130 rooms and 8 kivas, built into a natural alcove in the cliff face. The dwelling occupies a space approximately 216 feet (66 meters) wide and 89 feet (27 meters) deep, and is thought to have housed between 60 and 80 people. When discovered in 1888, it was named for the large spruce tree that existed in front of it, which was cut down by a subsequent explorer. The structure was stabilized and reconstituted circa 1908, as part of the restoration of the larger cliff dwellings at Mesa Verde, as well as being investigated archaeologically at this time. The ruin, due to its protected location underneath a ledge, is one of the best-preserved cliff dwellings in the park. The structure and the park were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966, and were designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978. Today, Spruce Tree House is closed to visitors, and has been since 2015, with studies to stabilize loose rocks above the building underway.

These dwellings are from a partially excavated site of the Elden Pueblo indigenous peoples who inhabited this site from probably 1070 to 1275.

Church of St. Andrews. Built in 1340,which fell into disuse in the 1950s and was renovated as a private house in 2000. However the surrounding graveyard still has public access.

Very difficult to spot except for the velux windows in the roof that this is now a private dwelling.

Shrines in the main living area are common welcoming luck, longevity, and long life. Shrines may contain food, drink, flowers, incense, and statues. The old man on the banner is the symbol of long life and he hold two peaches seen at the end of his beard.

These ruins are located in the Gila National Forest near Silver City, New Mexico. The Mogollon Indians lived here from 1270 to 1300 and then literally vanished.
