Description
Taos Pueblo is an ancient pueblo belonging to a Native American tribe. It is located approximately one mile north of the modern city of Taos, New Mexico. The pueblos are considered to be one of the oldest continuously inhabited communities in the United States. Taos Pueblo is a member of the Eight Northern Pueblos, whose people speak two variations of the Tanoan language. The Taos community is known for being one of the most private, secretive and conservative pueblos. Their language has never been written down and, therefore, much of their culture remains unknown.
About 4500 people live in the area which encompasses 95,000 acres surrounding the pueblo.
The Taos Pueblo was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1992.
