Chaco Canyon's rich trove of archeological treasures led to its preservation as a National Historical Park. Now readers can see some of those artifacts from the park's museum collection, many of which are rarely, if ever, on display. Dozens of high-quality photos, accompanied by brief text explaining the artifact's possible use, bring to life an ancient way of life and its intricate craftmanship. Handcrafted pots, exquisite jewelry, and even woven sandals are just a few of the fascinating objects highlighted.
