Description
View of multi-storeyed buildings at Shongopavi pueblo on Second Mesa, with a person standing on a roof in the foreground. According to an original note by James Stevenson (prepared circa 1885), Shongopavi 'is located on the point of a mesa which projects out into the plain. The photograph shows the greater portion of the village, also the interior court around which the houses are built.'
