This is the east alcove of the Palatki Sinagua ruins. There are five habitation rooms. This is the fourth from the farthest west room. Construction at this site probably commenced approximately 1100 AD. The site was abandoned approximately 1300 AD.
This model shows finger marks created during construction of the wall compressing the mortar and plaster used in the process.
This site is part of the Palatki Cultural Heritage site in the Red Rock District of the Coconino Forest northwest of Sedona, Arizona.
