Archeologists work carefully to uncover a portion of collapsed roof.
Pits 9 and 10 in which a few sherds, and bones of common raven, bighorn, and mule deer were found.
Rocks standing on edge in Citadel Ruin are the remains of walls that collapsed intact.
The Sinagua buried their dead with the body extended full length while the Anasazi buried them in a flexed position with the knees drawn up toward the chest.
The people who used these pits may have attached religious significance to owls, for only owl bones were found here. Winona Ruins south of here along U. S. Highway 66 produced only hawk bones.
Please stay on the trail.

You are standing in a circular ring of volcanic rock outlining a room. On the slopes of Citadel Butte are several similar round or rectangular outlines, none of which have been excavated. There is another just above you, and several below.
