Pithouse Life
Atop Chapin Mesa, restored remnants of Anasazi pithouses let us see how the Anasazi lived during Basketmaker III time about 550-750 AD.
From Chapin Mesa at Mesa Verde to Lowry Pueblo northwest of Cortez to Canyons of the Ancients and, finally, to many un-restored pithouses on Cedar Mesa, Anasazi lived in an early life style for about 200 years.
A pithouse was dug into the ground a few feet, then covered with trees, brush, and dirt. This composite site is actually two pithouses. With a fire pit only 6 feet below a ceiling laced with sticks and timber repeatedly dried by many cooking fires – the Anasazi lived in a potential fire hazard. The bigger room is actually the first pithouse ~ which burned to the ground some time after 674 AD.
Archeologists suggest pithouses had a normal life of 20 years; providing they escaped fire!
