In 1907, Dr. T. L. Eyerly, Floyd V. Studer, and other archaeologists discovered here "The Buried City," Pueblo ruins built by Panhandle Pueblo Indians who were agriculturists, stone house builders, and pottery and basket makers. Dr. Warren K. Moorehead partially excavated the ruin in 1919-1920. Some archaeologists and historians agree that the well-built stone houses were already in ruins when Coronado explored this region in 1541.
