Elden Pueblo, Archaeological site in Coconino National Forest, Arizona, United States.
The remains of Elden Pueblo contain stone walls, circular ceremonial kivas, and multiple residential structures at the base of Mount Elden.
The Sinagua people inhabited this settlement from 1070 to 1275, establishing a community of 200 to 300 residents across 60 to 70 rooms.
Archaeological excavations revealed trade connections through discoveries of Mexican macaw skeletons and California shell jewelry throughout the settlement.
The United States Forest Service manages the site with interpretive signs, accessible trails, and educational programs for visitors throughout the year.
Mary-Russell Ferrell Colton discovered the site, initially named Sheep Hill Pueblo, which later sparked the creation of the 1927 Arizona Antiquities Act.
