Pueblo del Arroyo, Ancient house in Chaco Culture National Historical Park, New Mexico, United States.
The Pueblo del Arroyo contains three hundred rooms arranged in a D-shaped pattern, making it the fourth largest structure in Chaco Canyon.
Construction of Pueblo del Arroyo began around 1060 AD and continued for thirty years, with Neil Judd conducting extensive excavations from 1923 to 1926.
The site includes fourteen standard kivas that were used for religious ceremonies, reflecting the social and ceremonial practices of Ancestral Puebloan peoples.
Visitors can access the site through a quarter-mile graveled trail from the Canyon Loop Drive, located 5.5 miles from the main Visitor Center.
The structure features a tri-wall kiva, which represents one of only ten such architectural elements discovered in the Southwestern United States.
