The Mesa Verde National Park is a WHS in the state of Colorado, which has a large number of prehistoric, ancestral Pueblo Indian dwellings, built between the 6th and 12th century CE, on a site with an altitude of more than 2,600m. These dwellings include cliff dwellings that range in size from small storage sites to large villages of more than 100 rooms. Other archaeological findings, representing both settlements of other manners of construction and non-habitation sites, have also been discovered.
