American Southwestern Natives and the Milwaukee Public Museum

The American Southwestern Natives included some of the oldest tribes of America.  The Anasazi were mysterious cliff dwellers as well as the Hohokam that are still being learned about, today.  The Hopi still live in Oraibi and the Navaho are still living their ways out west.  Here are some pictures of wonderful artifacts from the American Southwestern Natives:
