The 5-story adobe homes of the Taos Pueblo
are between 700 and 1000 years old, making it the oldest
continuously inhabitated settlement in the US. Taos
Pueblo was named a UNESCO world heritage site in 1992,
and is the only pueblo in northern New Mexico, where the
inhabitants still live traditionally, without electricity
or running water. The Taos Pueblo includes San Geronimo
Church, the ruins of the old church and cemetary, the
adobe houses, and the kivas. About 150 people live in the
adobe buildings Hlauuma and Hlaukwima, the church was
finished in 1850, being the 3rd on that site after the
first one was destroyed in 1680 during the Pueblo
rebellion, and the second by American troops in 1847.
Today it is the largest adobe pueblo of New Mexico - a
good example of how many others may have looked before
the arrival of the Spaniards.
