Reed, Preservation Archaeologist (December 17, 2019)\u00e2\u20ac\u201dRecently, there has been some debate about the value of protecting a 10-mile zone around Chaco Culture National Historical Park (henceforth Chaco or Chaco Park) and two of its outlying communities. Some have suggested that a smaller zone of protection, perhaps 5 miles in radius, would provide sufficient protection for the ancient Chacoan-Puebloan communities that lie outside the Park\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s boundary. This idea is mistaken. In this post, I will make the case for protecting the significant and fragile ancient communities that lie within 10 miles of Chaco\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s boundary.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why Protect a 10-Mile Zone around Chaco Culture National Historical Park? &#8211; Archaeology Southwest Paul F.
