| Background |
| Site Description | The Canyons of Ancients National Monument lies in the Four Corners region of the American Southwest and houses the Lowry Pueblo National Historic Landmark. The national monument is home to thousands of architectural sites and offers evidence of cultures and traditions spanning millennia. These sites include cliff dwellings, single family dwellings, great kivas, multi-storey adobe structures, shrines, rock paintings, petroglyphs and towers. Today, twenty-four native tribes claim cultural affiliation with Canyons of the Ancient National Monument. |
| Project Description | Due to its outstanding architectural value, Lowry Pueblo was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1967 and became part of the Canyons of the Ancients National Monument in 2000. In 2016, Lowry Pueblo was documented by the University of Colorado Denver Center of Preservation Research (CoPR) through a combination of 3D laser scanning and high resolution imagery. The data provides an accurate baseline to monitor deterioration of the architectural remains and a means for planning future preservation efforts. |
