Girl with ancestral Puebloan ladder - 1910s  

Did You Know?
Access to many rooms and levels of ancient Pueblo communities required ladders. The museum at Aztec Ruins contains this unique ladder excavated with bindings intact (shown with girl, ca. 1917). Today ladders represent a symbolic portal between two spiritual realms of the Pueblo universe.
