Description
Photograph of the residential area for cliff dwellers at the Painted Desert, in Arizona, [s.d.]. Boxlike stone structures built into the side of a cliff stretch out behind a thick tangle of foliage. Each structure has a few small squared windows, and most are open on top, some crumbling with age. Above, the overhead cliff acts like a ceiling.
