The Ancestral Puebloan peoples of the Southwest region were the first to build shelters, farm, and make pottery.
The Four Corners region of the modern United States, which includes southeast Utah, northeastern Arizona, northwestern New Mexico, and southwest Colorado, is home to the Ancestral Puebloans, commonly referred to as the Anasazi. They are said to have derived, at least in part, from the Picosa culture, which itself derived from the Oshara tradition. The name Anasazi, which the Navajo used to refer to them as "old enemies," is frequently used to describe the people and their archaeological culture. Some modern Puebloans find this phrase to be disparaging, and therefore oppose to its use.
The Ancestral Puebloans inhabited a variety of residences, including modest family pit houses, larger buildings to accommodate clans, great pueblos, and defensively-minded cliff-sited homes.
