Lowry Pueblo, Archaeological site in Pleasant View, Colorado, United States.
The Lowry Pueblo features thirty-seven residential rooms, eight regular kivas, and one great kiva with a diameter exceeding fifty feet.
The ancestral Puebloan settlement, constructed around 1060 AD, remained inhabited by groups of 40 to 100 people for approximately 165 years.
The great kiva served as a gathering space for ceremonial and political functions, with white geometric designs adorning its interior walls.
Visitors can access the site by driving 18 miles north on Highway 491 from Cortez and following the signs after turning west on Road CC.
The Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago conducted the first excavations between 1930 and 1934, establishing chronological patterns for regional archaeological sites.
