@cosmiclibrarian spectacular pictures. Looks like #BandelierMonument is a couple hours east of #ChacoCanyon, #NewMexico.

Our interest in sites like these is in how world cultures respond to their unique view of the cosmic order, and build extraordinary #architecture and other artifacts in the process.
@KronoMoon is dedicated to conceptions of #TimeTravel -- and not just bejeweled #TimeMachines. Could our ancestors have been #TimeTraveling all along? The images carry stories across centuries.

“The goal and necessary step forward is to build Diné and Pueblo solidarity,” said Janene Yazzie. “They don't deserve to have their poverty weaponized against them and have their lack of access to information weaponized against them, to use them as pawns for oil and gas interests.”

@Snoro Wouldn't improved tourist services to Chaco Canyon be better financially in the long run? #ChacoCanyon

Some think #debhaaland announcing the 10-mile buffer around #ChacoCanyon is a good thing for the environment. Yes, but there is also to consider say they ignored by Haaland.
Last month, Navajo lawmakers passed a bill opposing any buffer zone - after they tried negotiating a 5-mile zone instead last year.

Interior Secretary Deb Haaland: new #OilAndGas #leases will not be permitted on #publiclands in and around the #ChacoCanyon National Historical #Park in New Mexico. The ban will be in effect for 20 years but only affects new leases. It comes after decades of #organizing by #Indigenousgroups, which consider Chaco Canyon a #sacred site.

alone or in pairs?
runs over your neighbor's dog?"

"What's great for a snack?
and fits on your back?
it's log log log"

This video is about the log fitting on your back.

#ChacoCanyon preserves the homes and ruins of the #Indigenous #Pueblo and #Navajo peoples. These lands include rock engravings, ancient roads, and precious stone buildings that are over 1,000 years old. But without your help, #fracking could DESTROY Chaco Canyon’s historical and cultural sites!

Please take immediate action to protect Chaco Canyon and surrounding communities from fracking!
