west, is the statement made here rc-
ccntly by Jesse Nusbaum, superint-
endent of the Mesa Verde national
park. Colorado, after the uncover-
ing of a. house said to have been in-
habited by people long before the
cliff dwellers arrived in the section
now known as the Moors. Verde Na-
tional Park.
The Nusbaurn discovery was made
about eight feet beneath the floor. or
foundation of a cliff dwelling and in
the same cavern. located about a.
mile south of the Spruce Tree house
in the park. The tribe. according
to Nusbaum and other members of
the party that unearthed the house.
belonged to what are known as the
“basket-makers." and their presence
here was established beyond a. doubt
by the class of pottery discovered in
the house. it was 891d.
This pottery. Nusbaum asserts.
is easily identified as of a period at
last 1,000 years before Christ. and
other evidence was found to Justify
the statement that this region was
