Ruins......seen from google.....not sure from who or when...any help ?

[DanB]

Here are some ruins just off of Table mesa rd to the east.....don't know much about who, how old or why....it covers about 6 acres...and most of it had a stone wall all around the perimeter...as seen from Google earth..any info would be nice..
the ruins are intersected by the strait line trail with gully's on either side.....
most of the stones on the site are not from this area....as if they were brought in...I first noticed it when out four wheeling...the rocks just seamed out of place....not the same consistency with what is found around the surrounding area. Then after a brush fire....the whole sight was reviled.....so here are some up close pictures...

The 71,100-acre Agua Fria National Monument contains one of the most significant systems of prehistoric sites in the American Southwest. At least 450 prehistoric sites and four major settlement areas are known to exist within the monument.

Looks like you found the ruins of a stone pueblo community.

The BLM Phoenix Field Office located at 21605 North 7th Avenue Phoenix (623- 580-5500) may be able to assist you with ID-ing the site.

Great, interesting pics.
Don.....

Buck, haven t talked for a while, have you been up to the old fort outside Bumble bee? How did you do after the storms last month?
