SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - The New Mexico State Land office is providing summer tours of archaeological ruins from a 700-year-old Native American settlement that is rarely seen by the public.
State Land Commissioner Aubrey Dunn announced Thursday the summer tours of Pueblo Sapawe, located on state trust land at the northern New Mexico town of El Rito.
The settlement was inhabited from roughly 1350 until as late as 1550 and contained 24 multi-room buildings that were arranged around several plazas. The layout of the buildings and a variety of artifacts are still visible.
Limited reservations starting June 24 are available through the State Land Office website .
