Anasazi, the Navajos' name for the Ancient Ones who preceded them
into the Southwest, is the nickname of Richard Wetherill, who
devoted his life to a search for remains of these vanished peoples.
He discovered the cliff dwellings of Mesa Verde and Kiet Siel and
the Basket Maker sites at Grand Gulch, Utah, and at Chaco Canyon he
initiated the excavation of Pueblo Bonito, the largest prehistoric
ruin in the United States. His discoveries are among the most
important ever made by an American archaeologist.
