Pueblo Bonito in Chaco Canyon
Pueblo Bonito, in Chaco canyon in Northwestern New Mexico, USA, is probably one of the most well-known and most impressive native american ruins in the area. Beyond the sheer scale of the buildings in the canyon, astronomical connections between the constructions and solar and lunar cycles are breathtaking, as exemplified by solar and what is believed to be lunar calendars tracking an 18.5 year cycle.
