Anasazi

    In one of my GE classes, I got to learn a little about a lot of different civilizations that have existed ever since the inception of the world. In one of my history courses, I had an opportunity to explore a little about a civilization called Anasazi who existed about 8000 years ago.
   All the indigenous people who existed in those ages had pretty much similar approach towards life. People living in similar region had almost identical life style and means of survival. The Anasazis were also had a kind of culture that existed in the central America during that era.However, there were a couple of things that fascinated me enough to write a blog about them.
    During the early part of their existance, they lived in villages and valleys just like every other gorup of people, but as the time passed they shifted their residences in between the cliffs. This seemed pretty weired as designing houses in cliffs during those days was almost impossible. Moreover no one knows gthe reason of this migration from villages to cliffs. Furthermore, the most mysterious information about the Anasazis is the reason of their elimination. It is yet to be found that what happened to those people that diminished them from the face of this earth.
