Images from the Heiser Spring Restoration Project (2007-2010) include before and after spring restoration photos and photos of native plants and physical characteristics of the Wupatki National Monument landscape.

Ancestral Puebloan peoples lived across the northern areas of the Southwest beginning about 7,000 years ago with the beginnings of maize cultivation, until about 1540 AD, with the advent of the Spanish explorers.
