Wukoki Ruins

The Wukoki Pueblo Ruins are just one of several ancient pueblo communities within Wupatki National Monument that were inhabited by The Sinaqua Indians from about 1100AD to 1250AD when they mysteriously left the area. Other pueblo sites within the Monument include Wupatki, Citadel, Nalakihu and Lomaki.

The following Wukoki photos are compliments of a lady schoolteacher of Phoenix Arizona and provide a great visual experience of the well-preserved ruins. They give a glimpse into the lives of these ancient Native American people that are believed to be the ancestors of today’s Hopi Indian Tribe.
