Remains of Ancient Pueblo at Top of El Morro

Photograph depicts a stone wall that Maude has identified as the remains of ancient pueblo on top of El Morro, New Mexico. He is likely referring to the El Morro National Monument, a great standstone promontory. The site is also known as A'ts'ina ("place of writing on the rock" in Zuni) or Inscription Rock because of inscriptions that travellers have left on the rocks for several centuries.

Ruins of Old Zuni

Photograph depicts old Zuni ruins. On an inscription on the back of the photograph, Maude write that this area was probably inhabited less than 500 years ago by the Zuni (A:shiwi).
