Abstract
Since its discovery and recognition of its importance in the 1890s, archaeologists have been studying the cliff dwellings and rock art of the Mesa Verde region of southwestern Colorado, seeking to understand the factors that drove complex farming Ancestral Pueblo culture societies from these once vibrant communities in the end of the thirteenth century AD. Inventory process had been done before with various methods including classic or traditional archaeological investigations and basic distance and bearing survey measurements. With the dawn of new, remote sensing technologies, it was possible to make a detailed inventory covering wider area and automatically or semi-automatically connect all data with a common coordinate system. This paper describes current digital methods of heritage documentation and conservation in this area and provides a good-practice guide to how inventory and virtual documentation of such challenging landscape should be performed. This is part of an ongoing Sand Canyon-Castle Rock Community Archaeological Project that examines connections between the landscape, architecture and rock art of the Castle Rock Community in the thirteenth century AD and other sites in the Canyons of the Ancients National Monument, southwestern Colorado, US.
